Description
Experience Level: Entry
We need a transcriptionist who can transcribe voice-recorded medical reports in French that are dictated by healthcare practitioners.
When a patient visits one of our doctors, the latter spends time with the former discussing their medical problems and performing diagnostic services. After the patient leaves the office, the doctor uses a voice-recording device to record information about the patient encounter. This information is dialed into a central server located in the hospital. You will then access the report online, listen to the dictation and transcribe it into the required format for the medical record. The next time the patient visits the doctor, the doctor will call for the medical record or the patient's entire chart, which will contain all reports from previous encounters. The doctor can on occasion refill the patient's medications after seeing only the medical record, although doctors prefer to not refill prescriptions without seeing the patient to establish if anything has changed.
It is very important to have a properly formatted, edited, and reviewed medical transcription document. If you accidentally type a wrong medication or the wrong diagnosis, the patient could be at risk if the doctor (or their designee) did not review the document for accuracy. Both the doctor and you play an important role to make sure the transcribed dictation is correct and accurate. The doctor should speak slowly and concisely, especially when dictating medications or details of diseases and conditions. You must possess hearing acuity, medical knowledge, and good reading comprehension in addition to checking references when in doubt.
On some occasions, the doctors do not speak clearly, or voice files are garbled. Some doctors are time-challenged and need to dictate their reports quickly (as in ER Reports). In addition, there are many regional or national accents and (mis)pronunciations of words you must contend with. It is imperative and a large part of your job is to look up the correct spelling of complex medical terms, medications, obvious dosage or dictation errors, and when in doubt should "flag" a report. A "flag" on a report requires the dictator (or their designee) to fill in a blank on a finished report, which has been returned to him, before it is considered complete. You are never permitted to guess, or 'just put in anything' in a report transcription. Furthermore, medicine is constantly changing. New equipment, new medical devices, and new medications come on the market on a daily basis, and you need to be creative and to tenaciously research (quickly) to find these new words. You need to have access to, or keep on memory, an up-to-date library to quickly facilitate the insertion of a correctly spelled device.
Also, the doctors need to review their transcribed reports for accuracy.
