Best Careers In Health Care For Job Security

With job growth projected to increase across the industry, choosing to work in health care could be a smart career move

Career #5: Pharmacy Technician

The U.S. Department of Labor predicts 32 percent growth over the 2010 to 2020 time frame for pharmacy technicians, making this another smart career option to consider.

Why It's Booming: There are a variety of factors at play in terms of why this career is growing. For one, advances in pharmaceutical research mean that more prescription medications are being used to fight diseases. The growing elderly population will equal more prescription drug use as well.

What Pharmacy Technicians Do: Pharmacy technicians might perform tasks like compounding or mixing medications, counting tablets, or answering phone calls from customers, according to the Department. Pharmacy technicians working in hospitals may also have different duties, like making rounds in the hospital to give medications to patients.

Education Options: The Department says that pursuing a career as a pharmacy technician usually requires earning a high school diploma. Some states may also require completing a formal education program and passing an exam, so be sure to check what the requirements are in your state.

Why EMRs Should Not Replace Medical Transcription

Although it was originally believed by some that the implementation of Electronic Medical Records (EMRs) was going to eliminate the need for medical transcription services, many healthcare organizations are finding that medical transcription not only improves the use of EMRs, but also provides numerous additional benefits. We have listed 11 important reasons why EMRs should not replace medical transcription services.


Medical Transcription:
1. Saves TimeDocumenting the patient encounter in an EMR is time-consuming. When physicians are required to key data directly into the EMR, it takes significantly more time to complete the clinical documentation. Incorporating medical transcription with the EMR makes more efficient use of the physician’s time. Medical transcription decreases the physician’s time of documenting in the EMR because it transfers the clerical, data-entry responsibilities away from the physician.

2. Integrates with EMRs
Medical transcription can seamlessly integrate with EMRs and can automatically populate the transcribed content into the appropriate EMR fields using discrete reportable transcription (DRT). With a medical transcription-integrated EMR, physicians have more time to focus on patient care and clinical activities.

3. Maintains Revenues
Often, when EMRs are implemented, the extra time needed by the physician to complete the clinical documentation in the EMR requires the healthcare organization to reduce the number of patients seen. Fewer patient encounters translates to reduced revenues. This reduction in revenue can be overcome by using medical transcription as a documentation tool for the EMR.

4. Reduces Data-Entry Costs
Physicians are an expensive resource. Prior to the implementation of EMRs, physicians would typically have not been used for data-entry tasks. By using medical transcriptionists to complete the physician’s patient-encounter note, it reduces the data-entry costs associated with creating the EMR documentation.

5. Improves Productivity
The practice of medicine is fast-paced. Dictation is the fastest method to complete clinical documentation. And, medical transcription does not compromise the physician’s productivity or the organization’s workflow.

6. Enhances Usability
Medical transcription complements EMRs and improves their usability. A lot of the patient-encounter notes cannot be easily captured by the EMR’s documentation options. Medical transcription provides a valuable, usable documentation tool for the EMR.

7. Creates Meaningful Notes
Medical transcription provides richer narrative information, as compared to what is produced with the EMR’s templates and point-and-click documentation. A more complete, contextual, and meaningful note is provided when medical transcription is used (and integrated) with the EMR.

8. Increases AccuracyFree-text typing into an EMR can have a high error rate. Medical transcription eliminates the need for physicians to type lengthy EMR notes. In addition, copied-and-pasted or templated text used in the encounter note may not always properly portray the patient’s status or current visit. Another benefit of medical transcription is that a medical transcriptionist can help improve the quality of the clinical documentation by identifying possible errors in the dictation.

9. Provides Familiarity Dictation is the preferred method of clinical documentation for most physicians. Also, it is a documentation process that many physicians are already familiar with today.

10. Requires No EditingWith medical transcription services, the physician does not serve as the clinical documentation editor, like with front-end speech recognition technologies.

11. Accelerates EMR Adoption
Medical transcription services can help accelerate and expand EMR adoption for healthcare organizations.

A Day in the Life of a Medical Transcriptionist (home-based position)

Medical transcription is a fast-paced, specialized healthcare field with our own language, rules and regulations. More appropriately, today we are known as a Medical Language Specialist (MLS) with responsibilities to preserve the accuracy and integrity of legal medical documents. No two days are the same on the job, and the learning never ends. Although we sometimes face challenges; they are resolvable, and there is always an abundant workload. Moreover, the ability to work from home makes this position highly desirable provided one is disciplined and focused.

At the medical center where I work, dictation can be done from either inside or outside
the hospital for all physicians with staff privileges by dialing into the dictation system to a designated number. All dictation is recorded through a digital system and is managed through an application called DVI that is nowsupported by Word Systems, Inc. At our institution, dictation and transcription are separated into two separate categories; radiology and medical. An on-staff dials into the DVI
phone line and keys in the pertinent information for the dictation. The dictations are set up in work types designated for the specific report that they wish to dictate; i.e., history and physical, consultation, operating report, discharge summary, cardiology procedure, radiology, etc. Once the
dictation is recorded on the DVIsystem, it is immediately off-loaded to our transcription program.

The transcription platform used is an Internet-based system called TA Client and is a
program that was created and supported by Arrendale Associates out of North Carolina.
Within the TA application, the “jobs,” (each dictated report) are housed in an area called job administration. This area holds all dictation that is waiting to be transcribed. Each document is assigned a work type and is weighted according to priority. Each transcriptionist has the capability to viewjob administration, which allows them to manipulate documents (should the need arise) for problematic dictations, to move them to a higher or lower priority, change the work type as necessary when there is an error, to work through a specific backlog or dictator, as well as to route preoperative reports to a designated area until the patient is assigned a current account number if the report is
being dictated preoperativelyso it is not kicked around by multiple associates until they are assigned an appropriate number.

The transcription system is set up such thatwhen a transcriptionist signs in to the program, the jobs auto-route to available transcriptionists two jobs at a time. As they complete one job and submit it, the queue will refresh and load another job. Each time a transcriptionist call up a report to do, she is prompted by a demographic screen that populates the patient demographic informationthat the dictator has keyed in (on a good day), providing there are demographics available. Sometimes, little to no information is given wherefore the MLS detective skills come into play. Again, the patient’s medical record is a number that stays the same no matter how many times they come to the medical center. The different stays are called encounters, and those numbers change each time they visit. These are called account numbers.

When the patient demographics populate on the screen and the tr
anscriptionist has verified through her headphones and the main frame (AS400) that the dictated text and the patient information match, she then clicks the button on the TA demographic screen that performs a lookup on the AS400 that will then link the patient
demographics with a Word document that is created. Now finally, the transcriptionist can begin the
transcription! With practice and repetition, this process moves quickly. The transcriptionists at our institution have three packets that have been distributed that outline our Transcription Overview, Transcription Style Guide, and Transcription Formats set forth by the department and the medical center that are to be followed when transcribing dictated documents. We alsoclosely follow the AHDI (Association for Healthcare Documentation Integrity) Medical Transcription Book of Style. IT is the responsibility of each transcriptionist to also keep a medical library up to date concurrent with use of reputable references from Internet web sites.

Once the medical document has been transcribed, it is the responsibility of the transcriptionist to spell check the document and make any revisions necessary and adding any carbon copies that need to be sent before submitting the completed record. Once the document has been submitted, it flows back to the hospital main frame (AS400) and from there is interfaced to the HPF (Horizon Patient Folder) in the form of a preliminary document. At this point in time, a deficiency is created for the physician to sign the document. It is imperative that the physician carefully reviews the content and makes
any necessary edits or changes before affixing their signature. This is now considered a
legal medical document. Once their signature has been affixed to the document, they can no longer edit the report and would have to make any further changes or additions in the form of a dictated “addendum or corrected copy,” that would require another signature.

We have the capability to create our own short cuts within the TA Client program and have created normals and samples that helpto enhance and boost our production. The medical center has set average turnaround times for our specific report types. The system is capable of monitoring these and we have the means to monitor how many jobs are out of turnaround by the job summary function of our TA (transcription) program. These turnaround times are monitored closely and are reported to out HIM director at the end of each month, who then in turn reports them to administration.

Medical transcriptionists are paid by productivity and are paid by the 65-character line. Our minimum requirement is equivalent to 150 lines per hour (for part-time) or an average of 12,000 lines per pay period (two weeks) for a full time employee (80 hours). Production statistics are submitted weekly by
the individual transcriptionist and are checked against the production report run fromthe transcription application. On the medical side, we have a three-tier incentive program that affords the opportunity for a greater earning depending on the lines per hour the transcriptionist transcribes and their ccuracy. All transcriptionists, while earning by production, are schedule for specific shifts and punch their time through a time and attendance program, which is necessary for calculation of their lines/reports per hour. Our part of the department is typically considered a 24/7 department and our staff coverage complies with this time frame.

Each transcriptionist receives an annual evaluation at which time a transcription quality assessment/audit is done to calculate average production (quality/quantity/accuracy) as part of an overall assessment for potential merit increase. Included in this annual evaluation are other things pertinent to our medical center asan individual institution and includes pieces like compliance with Net Learning. These mini in-service modules set up by the medical center for the purpose of continuing education thathelp us to stay abreast of JCAHO requirements, medical center policies and procedures, patient safety goals, OSHA requirements, hazardous materials and the like.

Medical transcription is an exciting but ever-changing field regardless as it is critical that
the medical documentation as dictated is as accurate as possible in order that we can provide the most current and complete up-to-date electronic medical record possible with the information that we are given. The medicalrecord will follow the patient their entire life and we try to make certain that while transcription, we consider that the patient we are serving could be our own family members.It is through the documentation as a joint effort between the dictator and the transcriptionist that other healthcare providers may be basing their current assessment of a patient and their subsequent ongoing care

Medical Transcription: What are you worth?

Consider the following earnings matrix which projects gross annual income for various combinations of daily line count production and average wage per line:

 

	$.06 per Line	$.08 per Line	$.10 per Line	$.12 per Line	$.14 per Line
800 Lines	$12,480	$16,640	$20,800	$24,960	$24,960
1,000 Lines	$15,600	$20,800	$26,000	$31,200	$36,400
1,250 Lines	$19,500	$26,000	$32,500	$39,000	$45,500
1,500 Lines	$23,400	$31,200	$39,000	$46,800	$54,600
1,750 Lines	$27,300	$36,400	$45,500	$54,600	$63,700
2,000 Lines	$31,200	$41,600	$52,000	$62,400	$72,800

Skilled Medical Transcriptionists generally have little trouble finding work. Maximizing income, however, requires more than just falling into the first available job. In addition to possessing solid technical skills, the highest paid transcriptionists generally tend to have a positive self image and good people skills. Negotiating the right pay package requires a healthy dose of both. Sometimes it also means being willing to make a change or take a little risk. It should be obvious from the above compensation matrix that the greatest leverage lies in being willing to sell and service your own clients.

Annual income for full-time entry-level transcriptionists typing hospital reports averages between $20,000 - $35,000 - depending on location and proficiency. However, more experienced transcriptionists can expect to make double that amount - or more - on the basis of production, particularly if they are willing to develop their own customer base. Unfortunately, the pay differential between experienced and non-experienced transcriptionists is not typically as large in hospital settings where transcriptionists are often paid by the hour. This is one of the primary reasons that experienced transcriptionists tend to seek out positions as independent contractors or small business owners where they have the opportunity to leverage their earnings potential.

As an independent transcriptionist or service provider, the amount of money you make will be determined by your speed and proficiency. Average production based wages average between six and ten cents per line of transcription (based on a 65 keystroke line). If you are able to secure your own clients then you can expect to bill between fourteen and twenty cents per line for your work. Of course your overhead will have to be deducted from this amount. Still, this can mean a significant increase in income for those willing to learn how to sell their services to hospitals and clinics.

The primary factors which determine the income of a Medical Transcriptionist are as follows:
Competence and Experience
Speed and Efficiency
Risk Tolerance
Employee vs. Contractor
Geographic Location
Willingness to Accept Change

As a general rule, the industry pays a relatively high premium to transcriptionists who have a broad base of experience and competence - particularly in some of the more technically challenging specialties. Unfortunately, many highly qualified transcriptionists are not fully rewarded for their competence because they lack one of the other elements of success. For example, they may be geographically inflexible, or too conservative to try their hand at a more lucrative but potentially risky contracting arrangement.

Of course, some transcriptionists make a conscious decision to trade off a higher income for some additional flexibility, lower stress, or the opportunity to work from home. There is certainly nothing wrong with this as long as they understand the decisions they are making. Too many individuals simply shortchange themselves because of a reluctance to rock the boat. It is always adviseable to keep an open mind about potential opportunities to advance one's career or income.

An inexperienced Medical Transcriptionist will typically be better off with a compensation structure that guarantees an hourly wage. Securing a job with an hourly wage rate allows the new transcriptionist to earn a minumum amount of income during the least productive period of her career. Experienced transcriptionists are almost always better off being paid on production - provided they have the motivation to produce consistently.

Geographic location is still an important driver of wages - with those residing on the east and west coasts commanding the highest wages. This phenomena is primarily a consequence of the higher cost of living on the coasts. However, as remote dictation and transcription technology continues to proliferate, geographic pay differentials will begin to erode.

Most Medical Transcription operations are continually seeking new employees or contractors. The growth in the scope and complexity of medical records has been significant over the past several years and the demand for qualified help currently outstrips supply. There are abundant opportunities for an ambitious transcriptionist to increase his or her income.

If you are serious about your career it is important that you manage it aggressively. This implies that you do not necessarily settle for the first thing that comes along. If you are currently working as a Medical Transcriptionist and are dissatisfied with your current situation, you should take special care not to jump at the first opportunity that presents itself - simply as a means of getting out of an unpleasant situation.

Any move you make should be well calculated and meaningful. It should clearly move you in a positive direction. Be mindful of the fact that once you have made a move, you will typically be there for a while. That is why it is so important to make every move count. Make sure that every job change propels you to your next career plateau. You want to avoid making strictly lateral moves unless the new position will clearly provide an opportunity to gain a significant amount of valuable experience.

It is important to set stretch goals. Set your sights high and then work aggressively to sell yourself to employers. Think about getting the specialty training you need if that is standing in the way of your progress.

If you have not clearly thought through your career objectives then this is a good time to do so. Consider your objectives in the context of family, lifestyle, personal growth and income requirements.

Individuals who are most successful in their careers are typically those who are proactive. Waiting for opportunities to come to you is not the best way to manage your career. Think about where you want to be and then go after it.

Good luck!
