Document Transcription Services

Out-patient departments in most hospitals maintain paper files that store the various patient records. There are various disadvantages of maintaining paper files:
  • Every time a patient visits the hospital, hospital staff need to retrieve these records from the MRD resulting in patient wait time.
  • Hospital needs to ensure that these paper records are well-maintained and free from damage.
  • With the number of OPD files growing at a much faster rate than in-patient files, storage space also becomes a concern.

These factors seem to make it very obvious that hospitals should maintain OPD records in an electronic fashion avoiding paper files. However, this approach has not seen wide acceptance due to the dependency that typical EMR software places on doctors. Though most doctors are tech-savvy, time consumed to enter records manually into the EMR is considered to take up a large amount of useful consulting time. However doctors understand the need and importance of readily accessible patient records both from quality of care and research perspectives.

Considering all these factors, Yos offers transcriptionists who take care of the data-entry process post-consultation ensuring that the clinical data gets into the EMR for later use. This services is bundled with the Record Management Software that Yos offers, thus ensuring higher chances of IT success for the hospitals.

Yos has a strong, quality assurance process which takes care of the quality of transcription ensuring that there are no medical errors are introduced in the transcription process.
