Medical Transcription Editing Training
Become a Skilled Medical Editor with TeraMed Academy
TeraMed Academy offers specialized Medical Transcription Editing training designed for individuals who want to advance in the healthcare documentation industry. This course teaches you how to accurately edit and proofread transcribed medical reports generated through speech recognition software or manual transcription.
What is the Transcription
Medical transcription editing is the process of listening to voice-recorded medical dictations and comparing them to the transcribed reports. Editors then correct any errors in grammar, medical terminology, formatting, or context to ensure the final document is accurate and compliant with healthcare standards. With the rise of speech recognition technology, many healthcare providers rely on automatic transcription. However, human editors are still crucial for ensuring accuracy, consistency, and HIPAA compliance.
Recent advances in speech recognition technology have shifted the job responsibilities of medical transcriptionists from not only transcribing but also editing. Editing has always been a part of the medical transcriptionist job; however, now editing is a larger requirement as reports are more often being transcribed electronically. With different accents, articulations and pronunciations, speech recognition technology can still have problems deciphering words. This is where the medical transcriptionist editor steps in. Medical transcription editors will compare and correct the transcribed file to the voice-recorded audio file. The job is similar to medical transcription as editing will use a foot pedal and the education and training requirements are mostly the same.
