Family of doctors breeds medical transcription specialist

Medical transcription is in Nancy Wilson's blood. The Illinois native comes from a family of doctors, but instead of medical school, Wilson chose to study court reporting.

But her deep interest in medicine brought Wilson back into the family business. She opened her medical transcription business, AccuScribe Inc., in 1992. Based in Portland, Oregon, AccuScribe has grown since its founding into an established, respected provider of top-notch medical transcription services.

Technology revolutionizes medical transcription

Wilson just happened to launch AccuScribe as the medical transcription industry was undergoing a huge change. Voice-recognition software was emerging, and while early versions were problematic, it soon became clear that medical transcription would no longer require transcribers to listen to hours of dictation on cassette tapes and phone recordings.

Wilson has adapted to every change in medical transcription since the early 1990s. While technology makes medical transcription much more efficient than it used to be, Wilson and her staff at AccuScribe have retained the personal touch that lift their work to a higher level of detail and accuracy. Doctors value the deeper information they get from AccuScribe's medical transcription work.

"It's the key to helping use thrive in the new world of electronic medical records," Wilson says.

EMR systems on the rise, integrating with medical transcription

The push to adopt electronic medical records throughout the healthcare industry is accelerating. EMR got a shot in the arm from President Obama's recent economic stimulus package, to the tune of $19.2 billion earmarked for health information technology.

Large health systems can afford to invest in expensive voice-recognition systems for their medical transcription needs. Small doctor's offices and midsized health clinics, however, don't have the capital for these high-dollar systems. Some outsource their medical transcription to India, but find the results aren't always satisfactory. Other clinics use "point and click" electronic medical record systems that require the doctor to pay more attention to the computer than to the patient. Those systems not only frustrate both doctor and patient, they also spit out general reports that aren't as informative as the detailed narratives that medical transcription professionals can provide.

That's where AccuScribe comes in. AccuScribe offers professional medical transcription services at an affordable price. The company caters to the needs of each doctor and clinic, providing both cutting-edge electronic medical software and classic medical transcription services.

AccuScribe delivers custom medical transcription, EMR systems

Wilson knows well her clients' frustration with electronic medical record-keeping. She's built her business around easing their pain.

"We're proud of the narrative-rich, customized chart notes we take," she said. "We care about keeping the integrity of the documents."

Doctors who want accuracy and quality customer service turn to AccuScribe for EMR and medical transcription services. Wilson's 15 seasoned medical transcription professionals capture doctors' notes accurately, whether through voice recognition or live dictation.

Wilson believes in offering "Nordstrom-level" service. AccuScribe clients always get immediate assistance from a helpful human being.

The company's customer service and meticulous notes make it one of Portland's most trusted medical transcription companies. AccuScribe was Providence Health System's largest operative notes transcriber for nine years.
