Transcription Plus, LLC is able to offer substantial savings in overhead costs to our clients by being off-site. For example, instead of paying the high ‘appearance fee’ of a legal meeting monitor or court reporter, your staff member [who is already in attendance], would record the event. The audio media would then be sent to us, utilizing our secure FTP server (most efficient),  a file hosting service (such as DropBox, etc.) or nation-wide delivery service. Our transcriptionist(s) are assigned to specific clients, enabling ‘personalized’ knowledge & consistent processing. By utilizing our seamless, expeditious processing methods, we are able to provide absolutely accurate transcription services and adhere to strict HIPAA standards. We are proud of our high standards and our 100% United States-based staff.

Unlike most transcription services, we offer competitive pricing at an hourly rate.  There are no hidden costs.  We have been utilizing a per-hour charge since 1989 with a stellar reputation in this regard.  We have proven that per-line or page-count pricing structure exaggerates transcription costs for the client.  Transcription Plus, LLC has always maintained that assessing only for the actual time spent in completing an assigned task is a consistently more equitable and ethical policy, proven to lower your transcription expenditures.

The amount of time it takes to complete transcription varies tremendously from client to client, due to a plethora of dictating styles, dialects, subject matter, etc.  An introductory familiarization process to refine adeptness in distinguishing techniques may also be factored into that equation.  Therefore, it is not possible to arbitrarily assess the time required to execute an individual’s dictation and/or specialized project.  Our knowledge, experience and professional reputation speak for themselves.  Please accept our invitation to give us a try.

By outsourcing your work to the proven reliability of Transcription Plus, LLC, your overhead savings can be enormous – resulting in immediate savings in time, effort and money.  With the use of cutting-edge speech recognition technology, we add value to your investment by absorbing research development costs of hardware and software to supply this service.

Transcription Plus, LLC is comprised of an enthusiastic group of professionals, who take pride in what we do.  Our friendly staff offers personal assistance, as if you were our only client. Whether your project is large, small or a one-time undertaking,  open lines of communication are established to ensure your satisfaction.

Our superior staff is trained to assure that the verbiage is translated correctly, verifying proper grammar/punctuation usage and checking for inconsistencies and/or missing details in the dictation.  We believe that there is no room for error in this domain. Avoiding lawsuits and guaranteeing appropriate document management equates to assuring that technical, clerical and common sense issues are precisely executed.

Our staff consists of experienced medical, legal, business and government transcriptionists who are qualified in all aspects of documentation.

Our production managers continually monitor workflow to ensure that reports are delivered in the expected turnaround times; reassigning tasks that might otherwise become delayed.

Quality assurance is ascertained by required re-listening to the audio during the proofreading process, as well as performing random audits of transcriptionists’ work.

Company-wide communication and feedback is provided on a regular basis to all transcriptionists in an effort to continually increase skill levels.

Ongoing, personal interface between the staff and management at Transcription Plus, LLC enables staying abreast of new developments and technological advancements.

We have developed and supply each member of our professional team with a detailed, quality-focused handbook to further accomplish consistency of the end product, as well as assist in continued learning.

It is a requirement at Transcription Plus, LLC for each transcriptionist to re-listen to all audio while proofreading, thereby eliminating verbiage that ‘appears’ correct but is not. Anytime we are not 100% sure of what is being said, the area(s) in question are flagged (highlighted) and returned for client review. Any editing of the completed document is done free of charge.

Did you know that Transcription Plus, LLC has the ability to directly access your E.H.R. system and input your dictated notes and/or edit speech-generated reports for context and accuracy? Doctors can continue to work in the way they are accustomed, without having to disrupt normal schedules. We can add value to your E.H.R. investment by providing a much needed service solution to your technology choice.

• Does your current E.H.R. technology distract from the intimacy of the patient encounter?
• Are you seeing fewer patients because this process leaves you with little time?
• No time to proofread or edit?
• Isn’t the cost of your time better spent on patient care?
Transcription Plus, LLC can take over the clerical portion of your E.H.R. system for one, some or all of the doctors at your facility – simply and easily.

Transcription Plus, LLC has years of experience working with the medical community in the transition to and adoption of Electronic Health Records. As a physician, you can’t be expected to know how and have time to produce professional and accurate documentation. That is our job as medical transcriptionists. Doesn’t it make sense for doctors to spend time doing what they do best? –- Evaluating a patient and being in charge of their care. We can help you without changing the way you work and without adding extra time to your already busy day.

Transcription Plus, LLC has a solution for you:
• Our medical transcriptionists will be your clinical data, data quality and decision support specialists.
• We provide a service solution to your technology choice.
• Of the three documentation options (direct data entry, FESR and narrative dictation), 80% of doctors prefer narrative dictation – and do not have the time to proofread and edit.

Narrative dictation offers documentation of complete and accurate records. Medical transcription plays a relevant role in documentation and in helping to solve the E.H.R. adoption dilemma. This is vital to the future of healthcare and the national E.H.R. initiative. Integrated solutions that leverage both technology and service offerings will ultimately be improving patient care. Common sense and human thought can never be replaced by a machine. Let us help you!

Transcription Plus, LLC is currently providing these services. Here is what some of our clients are saying:

“When our facility incorporated the use of E.H.R., all of our doctors were extremely pleased that they didn’t have to change their dictation and documentation habits. Transcription Plus, LLC takes our digital audio dictation and, through use of secure direct access to our electronic records, inputs patient health information ready for immediate use. Our facility continues to be represented with professional and extremely accurate documentation, while our physicians are not wasting their important time doing clerical work.”

“Although I decided to utilize the speech recognition capabilities of our E.H.R. system to facilitate my dictation of pertinent patient information, I found myself not having the time in my busy schedule to properly proofread/edit the final output. Transcription Plus does this all important editing for me, greatly cutting down on traditional transcription costs while still presenting accurate documentation for my patients.”

“We have been particularly pleased with the ability of Transcription Plus, LLC transcriptionists to log into our laboratory information system and directly enter our dictations into the patient record. This allows a seamless operation from dictation to completion of the report despite the fact that the transcriptionists are all off site.”

By outsourcing your work to the proven reliability of Transcription Plus, LLC, the results you will see for your practice will be immediate savings in time, effort and money. Organizations that are focused on providing integrated solutions that leverage both technology and service offerings will ultimately lead to improved patient care. We add value to your E.H.R. investment by providing a much needed service solution to your technology choice.

DID YOU KNOW ?

* The United States Federal Government has regulations in place restricting off-shore transcription of government documents? Is your town, state, doctor or lawyer protecting their data?

* Off-shore companies that boast lowest transcription prices and 98% accuracy are utilizing staff whose primary language is NOT English and produce substandard work. 98% accuracy equals 20 mistakes in a 2-page, 1000-word document!

* An off-shore company that says “Our Accuracy is over 99%” sends out their advertising incorrectly written as: One Week Trail (Medical Transcription). The same company boldly advertises the offices they have in New Jersey but when the email receipt comes back, it says: “Your message was read on <Day>, <Date> <Time> (GMT+05:30) Chennai, Kolkata, Mumbai, New Delhi.”

* Outsourced medical records have recently been transcribed and subsequently sold on the black market in India. Is this happening to you?

* Transcription Plus, LLC contacted the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) and several departments within the FCC for questioning on the stolen information. The feedback received was that “..it is difficult for us to determine the safeguard on privacy information.” The federal government might not be able to assure your data is safe, but at Transcription Plus, LLC, we will.

* The United States has implemented strong HIPAA Privacy Rules and the new HITECH Act to provide protection of personal health information. However, countries such as India do not follow the United States regulations.

* Your client’s data deserve the best protection, whether or not it is health information.

Transcription Plus, LLC protects all data as private, confidential and secure.

Transcription Plus, LLC can assure the safety of your data. Transcription Plus, LLC is proud of our 100% United States-based staff and offices. Transcription Plus, LLC keeps information confidential.  A proven trustworthy, professional and ethical company since 1989, any information that is entrusted to us would never be shared or sold.

Transcription Plus, LLC Medically-Certified Virtual Scribe Services Improve Productivity, Accuracy and Restore Exam Room Decorum.

Our virtual scribe service has the capability to work with most EHR systems. This service will be provided remotely via live electronic voice and system integration as the patient is being seen. Scribes are fluent in system navigation and able to enter orders, prescriptions and other notes per the physician’s request with physician confirmation. System integration technology is HIPAA compliant.

A recent article in AMA’s American Medical News cited physician concern that EHRs change the dynamics of the patient-doctor relationship. Why? Because physician’s concentration is divided between diagnosis and data.

The recent advent of in-room scribes further deteriorates the doctor/patient relationship. In-room scribes typically accompany the physician into the exam room, generating extensive privacy concerns. Many patients find the scribe to be intrusive, causing them to be less forthcoming with important information that could impact diagnosis and treatment. Furthermore, an in-room scribe is generally trained and on the job within a matter of weeks; making it virtually impossible without a medical background to be competent to understand an in-depth medical dialogue; an unfortunate set-up for grave errors.

It doesn’t have to be that way. Transcription Plus, LLC has a staff of certified health care documentation specialists with extensive medical knowledge and expertise functioning as medically-certified virtual scribes. Medically-certified virtual scribes are an innovation for modern medicine; a personal assistant to the physician that allows dictated notes [instead of time-consuming doctor input], performing input remotely into Electronic Health Records. And best of all, medically-certified virtual scribes are often 60% less expensive than in-room scribes.

The routine use of an in-room scribe has many potential problems of privacy and accuracy. MT skill sets are extensively more aligned with those of a clinical documentation improvement specialist than an in-room scribe. It is very important to have an individual with the education and experience acting as the second set of eyes on the documentation to catch holes, errors, and inconsistencies that need to be clarified.

At Transcription Plus, LLC, we’re all about helping physicians return to their first love: Caring for their patients.

Transcription Plus, LLC is committed to doing our part in helping to preserve natural resources and we can help your facility to do this too!
