Medical Transcription

I completed my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science in October 2001. In 2010, I started my career in medical transcription, a field I had always been interested in. I chose medical transcription as my career and completed my training at Digimatrix Technologies in Bangalore over six months. When I began the training, I found it a bit difficult because I was new to the medical transcription field. However, as time went on, I realized that medical transcription could be easy at times and difficult at others. The medical terminologies and the way doctors use them to treat patients were very interesting to me. Once I completed the training, I started working on live files from US doctors at Digimatrix Technologies. During the first week, I was very nervous, but I gradually became more comfortable and adjusted to the office environment.
Initially, I was given only a few files to work on, which I would upload within two to three hours. Unfortunately, the salary at Digimatrix was very low, and they paid based on the number of lines transcribed. Since there was not much work available, they did not increase my workload. In October 2010, I started searching for a new job and joined Infoscript in Domlur, Bangalore. The workload there was very heavy, and I worked from morning until 4:30 PM. I worked at Infoscript for two years, until 2012, when the company closed due to internal issues. Afterward, I joined Aptcon and later Scribetech in 2014, where I worked for three years. The account I worked on there was British, and for the first few days, I found it difficult to get accustomed to the British accent. However, as time passed, I started working well with the British account. The company provided incentives and other benefits. I had breakfast at the company cafeteria, and for lunch, I went to nearby hotels. By evening, I would finish my work and leave the office. The company did not offer home-based medical transcription at that time, and I was comfortable working from home. Therefore, I searched for opportunities in April 2018 and was selected to work from home at Medvoice. I worked night shifts as a medical transcriptionist there. The files at Medvoice were easy, and I was able to type 700 lines per day, earning 20,000 INR per month. I worked at Medvoice from 2018 until January 2024 as a medical transcriptionist.

I am looking for career growth in a new role. Since i completed my Bachelor's degree in Computer Science in October 2001.

Medical transcription has always been my field of interest since my childhood.

During this six-year period, I worked on all types of files, especially in the field of psychiatry. Some files were very difficult, as the dictators spoke very fast and there was often background noise, making it challenging to transcribe. In April 2024, I joined Capzen Technologies as a medical transcriptionist/editor and worked from home for six months. On December 10, 2024, the company closed its work-from-home operations and shifted to office-based work. The company was Aquity-based. Overall, I have 14 years of experience in the medical transcription field. This is an overview of my career as a medical transcriptionist.
