Key Benefits Of Medical Transcription Software
By Rao Atluri
The increasing demand for skilled medical billing and coding
specialists can be attributed to the growing use of medical
transcription software for healthcare organizations around the
globe. Medical transcription software has slowly replaced the
need for manual transcription services that could take up to a
week to turnaround a dictation; today's innovative software and
technologies are designed to automate the dictation-to-reporting
process so that the final product can be retrieved within 24-48
hours.
Many medical transcription companies now use medical
transcription software to capture the dictation and turn it into
an accurate report. Coding specialists must be trained to use
this specialized software, and these programs offer several
benefits for any data processing agent.
Some of the key benefits of medical transcription software
include:
1. Easy voice capture and speech recognition capabilities. This
makes it easier for the medical transcriptionist to capture the
doctor's dictation with utmost accuracy. Doctors can submit
their dictation via phone or other recording device to make the
audio file available to the coding specialist, and the voice
capture technologies can make this process more accurate than
conventional methods.
2. Medical spell checking and dictionaries. Since a coding
specialist may not understand medical terminology and phrases, a
medical spellchecking function may be incorporated into the
medical transcription software. This also makes the data capture
more accurate and can save time in the grammar and spellcheck
process.
3. Easy document distribution. After the report has passed
quality control and is ready for submission, medical
transcription software can make documents available in a variety
of formats. The report can be synchronized to a doctor's
handheld device or computer, or simply sent in electronic form
for easy printing.
4. Supports a variety of audio and video formats. Medical
transcription software has been designed to support several
audio and video formats so that doctors using different types of
technology can benefit from the services. With fewer
limitations, more healthcare organizations can begin to use
medical transcription services with ease.

5. Quick and simple editing interface. If errors are present or
a medical transcriptionist needs to go back and edit certain
areas of a document, the software allows for simple editing with
a text editing tool and keyboard short cuts. This reduces
turnaround time and improves the accuracy of all reports.
6. Time code stamp functions. Medical billing and coding
specialists can make use of time stamp functions on all their
data with a touch of a button. This also reduces turnaround time
and provides better, more accurate data for the doctor.
7. Integration with many healthcare systems and programs.
Doctors and physicians can access data easily with today's
innovative medical transcription software and platforms. This
reduces time for finding and retrieving data so that reports are
readily available, at their fingertips.
Medical transcription software used by transcriptionists today
offers several benefits for healthcare organizations of all
sizes. With accurate reports and efficient turnaround times, the
software can make the entire dictation-to-reporting process very
simple. Quality control also ensures that all reports are
HIPAA-compliant and free of errors so that your healthcare
organization can benefit from consistent reporting for the
long-term.
