Who needs transcription services?
A. Medical transcription :
Insurance companies request patient records from their customers’ doctors in order to have their own physicians check the accuracy of such reports and comment on the advisability of a particular course of treatment for such patients.
When a patient’s doctor recommends a certain course of treatment, the insurance company’s doctor (ICD) studies and analyses the report of the original doctor and concludes whether that particular procedure or treatment is necessary or not. The ICD can also recommend cheaper medicines or alternative ways of dealing with the patient’s problem. This way the insurance company saves a lot of money.
The patient also benefits in two ways:
- He/she is given the benefit of a second opinion without paying anything extra; and/or
- When the patient’s insurance company suggests a cheaper alternative, the amount of money deducted by the insurance company from the principal sum (through paying for medical expenses) is reduced.
Legal transcription services are generally required by attorneys, lawyers, paralegals, law firms, etc.
Media transcription and media monitoring services are generally necessary for media companies, various industries, political individuals or parties, sportspersons and sports groups, etc.
