I’m a Medical Assistant Instructor and I’ve taught Med. trans. My advice would be to enroll in a Med. Trans class at your local Comm. College, graduate, be able to type around 100 words per minute – you get paid by the line in this field. Get a job in a Medical office or hospital for about 6 to 7 months and get used to the different doctors – alot of our doctors are foreign and they are hard to understand. When you feel comfortable buy a transcription machine and contract yourself to 3 or 4 doctors – they usually like a 24 hour turn around – you deliver the hard copies and pick up their new tapes from that day.
I do have to tell you that a lot of doctors are buying small laptops and they carry them around from room to room and all the medical info is stored in these computers – so I’d say in the the near or medium future this might take the place of Billers and Transc.
good luck !
