Medical Transcription Training Course
What is Medical Transcription?
Virtually every encounter that takes place between a health care provider and a patient is recorded either by voice or electronically. When dictated, the information is then transcribed (typed) by a Medical Transcriptionist and the report is filed in the patient’s chart (hard copy or electronic or both) using a computer and a word processor.
As a career, Medical transcription is one of the few legitimate career choices that allows you to work at home. An average MT with one year of experience earns a minimum of $18 to $20 an hour with many MTs making considerably more. According to the Government’s Occupational Outlook Handbook, this career field is expected to grow by 11% through the year 2018 due to an increase in the aging population. This makes medical transcription both a stable and lucrative career choice. Click here to request our free eBook to tell you all about Medical Transcription.

What About Certification?
Certification is available for most of the career programs we teach. Certifiers may require some level of actual experience before allowing a certification test (coding, for instance), but allow students to join as “associates”. Most students who successfully pass our program are well prepared to pass certification exams from either AHDI (which strongly suggests 2 years of acute care experience before taking the CMT exam) or Med-certification (which offers an entry level certification for newly trained MTs).
