Working with People in a Clinical Setting - Has no Bearing on Transcription Posted: Oct 29th, 2019 - 12:48 pm In Reply to: I guess i'm always liability-concerned. - Sam
You are comparing apples to oranges here. Okay, yes, they both grow on trees, but they are 2 completely different fruits. They look, smell, taste, etc., completely different.
That you have worked with people in a clinical setting means nothing as it pertains to medical transcription. You may very well know the Big 4 report types, but it doesn't mean you can transcribe any of them. Even if you have dictated any of them, it doesn't mean you can transcribe them.
One poster mentioned being able to type 80-85 WPM. Even with speech wreck editing, you need those fingers to be able to move fast to edit. You don't get to look at your fingers. Your focus is on the screen. If you don't know touch typing at all, there is no transcription work available to you until you do. Personally taught personal typing doesn't count if you look at your fingers.
I just read my note here. Sounds harsh, but I think you are underestimating what we do.
I would suggest this. Write to an agency to see if they would test you without transcription experience or a really good transcription course. (Good luck on the latter! None of those anymore.) If they let you test, you'll do that, and you will have your answer very quickly. Some tests have medical terminology multiple choice questions. I am guessing you'll ace that, but you would then move to actual transcribing. It may be in the form of snippets in different specialties, or it may be one report each in the Big 4. Note that most tests are EASIER than what you'll encounter on the job, so keep that in mind.
And good luck to you. I am very sorry for your medical condition, and I do hope you can back into your field of expertise at some point. Please take our responses to heart. We know what we are talking about, because we live it. It ain't pretty.
