that offshored transcription work sucks. HIPAA does not apply, JCAHO does not apply, etc. There is really no obligation of offshored individual MTs or services to follow U.S. privacy laws. Plus I used to QA these reports, and 9 times out of 10 they have been horrible. The wrong patients were even put on reports!!! This is not to diss the offshored MTs which I am sure are as hardworking as we are, but to me it is a patient care issue.
