Medical transcription: Choosing the right service provider

Medical transcription has become an integral part of the healthcare process, aiding in the process of record creation. Essentially medical transcription is an effective back end support for healthcare facilities. Though medical transcription is an integral part of the healthcare process, it is not part of the core business of the healthcare facility. The easy fix to ensure creation of patient records in a cost–effective, accurate, speedy and secure way is to outsource the entire process to a professional medical transcription service provider.

Choosing the right medical transcription service provider is vital as it is a partnership that will have long-term impact on the running of the healthcare facility.   Choosing a medical transcription service provider is business decision that requires a process of qualification and evaluation to ensure that a working partnership is formed. To this end, a healthcare facility has to consider numerous factors while outsourcing medical transcription

What are the factors to be considered while outsourcing medical transcription?

The process of choosing the right medical transcription service provider should logically follow a process involving two phases.

First phase of the outsourcing decision:

Purpose of outsourcing: This part of the process is probably one of the most ignored and important steps in the outsourcing process. This step requires the healthcare facility to clearly define what it hopes to gain from the outsourcing process. Typically this could include:

  • Streamlining the transcription flow: Outsourcing medical transcription ensures that the process of converting dictation files into patient records happens as a matter of course

  • Reducing the turnaround time: Outsourcing medical transcription ensures that the turnaround time required by the healthcare professional is met with

  • Lowering costs: Outsourcing medical transcription helps the healthcare facility save on costs of medical transcription as well as other associated costs

  • Better focus on core business: Outsourcing medical transcription has the additional benefit of allowing the healthcare facility to concentrate on the core business of providing quality healthcare profitably

  • Having a leaner organizational structure: Outsourcing medical transcription helps the organization structure leaner by ensuring that along with the need for medical transcriptionists, other staff like managers, administrators and IT staff is reduced

  • Quickening the receivables process: Outsourcing medical transcription ensures that records are created on time, thus helping to accelerate the first stage of the receivables cycle

Deliverables expected from the outsourcing process: This stage could involve defining the exact parameters to measure the outcome of outsourcing medical transcription:

  • Acceptable accuracy levels: This is perhaps the most crucial factor, as the information captured by the medical transcriptionist plays an important role in continued patient care

  • Turnaround time for both regular reports and STAT files: Turnaround time is very important as the information should not only be accurate but also timely

  • Total security of confidential patient information: Maintaining the confidentiality of patient data at every stage is mandatory for healthcare facilities. While outsourcing medical transcription due consideration needs to be given to this factor

Factoring future requirements: This essentially means that the healthcare facility has to include the transcription requirements that may arise from the future expansion plans of the healthcare facility, including:

  • Adding new specialties: Adding on new specialties would require that the medical transcription service provider should be in a position to provide transcription services for the new specialties without compromising the accuracy or turnaround time

  • Opening of new branches: Expansion plans of the healthcare facility would have an impact on the transcription capacity of the medical transcription service provider

  • Adoption of EMR: It is important to ascertain that the medical transcription service provider has capabilities to integrate information with EMR/EHR in the form of HL7 messages
Second phase of the outsourcing decision:

Sourcing medical transcription service providers: This has become easy considering that information is only a click away. However it is important to look for more than the price offered for services

Receiving proposals: This stage would involve sorting through the proposals received to look for qualifying features like experience of the service provider, HIPAA/HITECH compliance, technology used and the type of team available to execute the work

Evaluating medical transcription companies: This stage of the process would involve evaluating the medical transcription service provider on the basis of criteria like accuracy, turnaround time, price and security.

Verifying the credentials. This part of the process involves two steps:

  1. Verifying references: This would mean following-up on the testimonials of customers who have availed similar services

  1. Availing free trial: Availing a free trial of services ensures that the medical transcription service provider is able to deliver services as promised

Signing the contract: This is the final step in the outsourcing process involving defining in black and white what the role of each party is in the outsourcing process. 

Outsourcing the medical transcription requirements is essentially like choosing a long-term partner and needs to be done with a great deal of care.

Medical transcription: Blend of human expertise and technology


Medical transcription has been acknowledged as an integral part of the healthcare process by creating accurate, speedy, secure and cost-effective patient records. It has also been acknowledged that outsourcing medical transcription is an easy and economic fix to ensure timely and accurate creation of patient records.

However while outsourcing, healthcare facilities have to go through a stringent process of evaluation to ensure that they have sourced the right medical transcription service provider. For the process of assessment to be effective it is important to understand the components of medical transcription. This will provide the healthcare facility the right criteria to evaluate the service provider.

The process of medical transcription consists of the following steps:

Input: The inputs for medical transcription come from the dictation of the patient- healthcare professionals encounter in the form of audio files. The quality of the audio files is an important contributor to the accuracy of medical transcription. The quality of audio is a combination of the right technology and the dictation skills of the healthcare professional. Thus the quality of dictation is the product of a blend of the right technology and the right human skill
Process: The actual process of medical transcription involves the following steps:

  • Uploading audio files: This step ensures that all the audio files are uploaded into a server to be made available to the medical transcription service provider to begin the transcription process. Technology plays a huge role in this step of the process by making the process secure, speedy and easy to use for healthcare professionals

  • Downloading audio files: Downloading the audio files to begin the process of transcription involves using the right technology. This not only ensures timeliness and maintaining the quality of audio, it also ensures security of data during the process of transmission

  • Listening to audio files: This part of the process involves human skills to a large extent. It is important for medical transcriptionist involved in the process of transcribing to have the requisite knowledge regarding the specialty being transcribed. This ensures that the medical transcriptionist has knowledge of the language, terminology, procedures, drugs and therapies associated with the specialty


  • Typing the contents of the audio files: This part of the process also involves human skills, as speedy and accurate transcription requires that the medical transcriptionist possess keyboarding skills, knowledge of the specialty and language skills. It also requires the medical transcriptionist to have multitasking abilities, since the process involves listening and typing at the same time. The role of technology in this part of the process is limited to providing the required templates, formats, assuring audio quality and assisting with research as and when required.

  • Running quality checks on the transcribed files: Running quality checks on the transcripts involves human skills, as it is the application of context and checking on the content. This requires listening skills, concentration and thinking-on-your feet abilities.

Output: In medical transcription the output is the patient record created during the transcription process. These transcripts need to be transmitted back to the healthcare facility and further distributed to the right healthcare professionals. The process of transmitting finished transcripts in a speedy, secure and efficient manner involves the use of technology. Technology adds further benefits by making it possible to print reports at a remote location, instant transmission by faxing, and easy retrieval by creating archives, integration with EMR through HL7 interface etc.

It can be seen that medical transcription is a blend of human expertise and the right technology. The process of medical transcription would be incomplete without either of these components. The skill set of the medical transcriptionists contributes to the accuracy, speediness and to a certain extent to the security of the patient records. Technology contributes to the turnaround time, ease of use and security of the medical transcription process. Both technology and the human skills involved contribute to lowering the cost per line of transcription. Therefore it is important to pick a medical transcription service provider who has the right blend of technology and people skills.

TransDyne provides medical transcription service with a blend of the right technology and the right team. TransDyne offers quality medical transcription at reasonable prices, executed by experienced and qualified medical transcriptionists with a very quick turnaround time executed through secure HIPAA and HITECH compliant channels, with very high levels of accuracy and all this with technology that is advanced but easy to use!

Medical transcription: Is outsourcing a smart solution?

However to make the process of outsourcing medical transcription smart and effective it is important that the healthcare facility exercise some caution as regards the following:

  • Security measures: Maintaining confidentiality of patient information is of utmost importance. Therefore it is important to ascertain that the medical transcription service provider has adequate measures in place to protect the data at all stages. To ensure total security, the service provider has to take measures to secure technology, infrastructure, people and processes

  • Billing methods: Often during the process of outsourcing medical transcription the price quoted by the service provider is taken at face value, without examining the components of the price. Often this leaves room for manipulation on the part of the service provider. To avoid this it is important to ascertain the billing method used by the service provider and understand the components of cost. This ensures that there is clarity in terms of pricing

  • Testimonials: The experience of the medical transcription service provider in providing outsourced medical transcription solutions to other healthcare facilities is an indication of their expertise. Therefore it is important to check on the testimonials given by the customers of the service provider

  • Free trial: Apart from studying all the aspects of the medical transcription proposal, it is also important to test them. Availing a free trial of the services provides the added comfort of knowing that the service provider can deliver services as promised
