What is Medical Transcription?
Doctors and healthcare providers in the United States maintain records of all their interaction with the patients. These medical records are required for processing and auditing insurance claims and for external referrals.
.
As doctors are starved for time, they dictate the details of patient condition, diagnosis, treatment plan, etc., into a recording device. A Medical Transcriptionist (MT) would then listen to this audio recording and transcribe the content using a computer. An MT should therefore be good at English, be trained in medical terminology, understand the context, refer medical and drugs dictionary, reference books, and more than all, should be committed to the job.
Indias contributions to MT :
With the increasing use of technology, transcription work moves from the U.S. to India fairly in large volumes. India has its advantages of large base of English-speaking manpower, being in a different time zone and lower costs, is emerging as a preferred destination to outsource the transcription work. In spite of high growth rate of MT industry in India, we currently handle less than 20% of the transcription volume in the U.S. There is a definite scope for the industry to grow to at least 25 to 30 times its current size.

Medical Coding :
Medical coding can be defined as assigning of codes to medical diagnosis and procedures that assist in the reimbursement of a patient from insurance companies and the government. The person who does this job of coding and decoding is called as a Medical Coder. The ever-changing state of technology and procedures, which are used in allopathic medicine, makes it hard and complicated for a layman to understand the Medical Terminology used by the doctors or physicians. By giving exact codes to define procedures it becomes easier for all the parties involved to understand the procedures and compensate the person in question.
A Medical Coder should have the ability to convert a disease into ICD-9/ ICD-10 CM code and a medical diagnosis into a CPT code. This requires perfect and detailed knowledge of Codes and Billing procedures. At SSZ INFOTECH, we offer courses in medical billing and coding, provide extensive training.

Medical Billing :
Electronic Medical Billing is a paperless billing process; wherein the bill is printed out after making the entries related to the patient’s treatment in the computer system and handed over to the patient by his doctor. Such electronic Medical Billing incorporates all the related information like, the insurance provider’s data, your detailed treatment charges, medicines and other incidental expenses incurred by the clinic while extending your treatments. All these information are essential for claiming the medical expenses incurred by the clinic, from the patient’s Medicare or Medicaid, medical insurance providers.
The electronic Medical Billing is usually prepared by entering all the necessary data in the computer system with the help of the specialized Medical Billing software program. In electronic Medical Billing, the particular information is typed out into the computer system and thereafter the installed software takes those data itself for transmitting them over to the carrier.
