Improve Your Reputation with Medical Transcription

You may not immediately think of how medical transcription services can help improve the reputation of your business. After all, we’re talking about two very different aspects of business-related activities on the surface. However, there are some surprising ways professional medical transcription services can also help you improve your brand reputation. We dive into this topic below and explore the connection.

Improving Patient-Staff Relationships

Getting outsourced help with routine medical transcription or IME medical transcription or other specialized variations eases the burden on your own in-house staff. Lightening the load for your staff often means your patients benefit from:

• More direct interactions with staff during visits
• Being able to ask questions and receive other types of assistance faster
• Reduced wait times since staff won’t be excessively crunched for time
• A more welcoming environment

Creating Better Overall Patient Experiences

Because of the increased accuracy with the audio transcription of patient information that occurs with professional service for this purpose, patients often have a better overall experience. This is also true with EMR medical transcription that’s done in a way that’s in line with current standards and HIPAA requirements. Having everything patient-related properly coded and in an easily accessible database improves the overall patient experience by contributing to:

• Fewer issues with prescription errors: This is often the case since it’s not uncommon for doctors to initially dictate changes or adjustments with prescriptions during visits.
• Improved consistency with access to patient data: If patients are part of a health system that involves multiple providers, patient-related information that’s been correctly entered is easily accessible.
• Fewer billing issues: Medical transcriptionists minimize billing issues by using proper terminology during the transcription process, which often means correct codes will be used to bill for those services.

Boosting Your Online Reputation

You know all those patient-related benefits we just mentioned? Well, it turns out if you have patients more satisfied with the quality of care they’re receiving and their interactions with staff, those same patients are more likely to say nice things about you. In the world of medical marketing, this could benefit your practice by:

• Inspiring positive online reviews: Receiving more positive online reviews often translates to an increase in patients. The main reason is because it’s common today for patients to read online reviews first before making decisions about care providers.
• Encouraging more social media interaction: Not surprisingly, satisfied patients are more likely to spread the word about their experience, especially via social media platforms.

These two transcription-related perks alone can play a role in improving your online reputation.
