Hello, I have a few questions. I am currently taking a medical transcription course. It actually is the final part of my program I have been taking. I am doing the Hillcrest Medical Center book. I am having lots of trouble with the cases in the book. Trouble hearing them and understanding them. My teacher says that I need to be flexible in my working conditions. See I am doing this transcription in a classroom with about 15 other women that are working all kinds of other things. Lots of talking, and other activities going on. My question is....Is this typical in an office? I have read that typically a Transcriptionist is working in a quite part of the office or at home. Also, transcription isn't really what I want to do in the first place but, I am up to having it as extra knowledge. I am wanting to do more of an billing,or coding position.
My other question is how do you get your foot in the door?? I only have a small amount of experience in an office and, that was a distribution office at that. I have no medical office experience. It is just so hard to get into any place because they want experience. I can't get experience If I don't get hired. Any ideas or tips I would greatly appreciate. Thanks |
