What is expected of an MT?
A major part of a hospitals accreditation depends on the accuracy and turn-around time of medical documents. Which therefore makes Professional Medical Transcriptionists an essential and integral part to a hospital, doctors clinics operations. Fast turn-around-time affects the ability for patients to get proper care and the hospitals or doctors clinic ability to get paid from the insurance companies. Insurance companies will not pay until they have received an accurate and timely patient record. If a hospital ever gets too far behind with their transcriptions, they could literally lose their government accreditations.
