Transcription at Kaplan University
AAS in Medical Transcription:The Associate of Applied Science in Medical Transcription lets you achieve the specialized skills and knowledge you need to become a certified professional, online, on your own schedule. As a medical transcriptionist, you’ll be responsible for turning doctors’ daily dictation tapes into clear, concise, print and electronic documents. Such records are the main reference for health care decisions made by patients and their physicians. They must be produced in a timely, accurate, and totally confidential manner. Medical transcriptionists enjoy a taste of medical training and exposure to many different medical disciplines. They work in hospitals, physicians’ offices, and in a wide range of other medical facilities. More and more, work is being outsourced to independent contractors who operate their businesses from home. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, job opportunities for medical transcriptionists will grow faster than the national average through 2016, as America’s population continues to grow and age.* Our associate’s degree program focuses on developing self-discipline, strong language skills, typing accuracy and speed, and computer literacy. Training includes studies of medical terminology, anatomy and physiology, drugs and pharmacology, and medical ethics. Communications skills such as writing, editing, proofreading, and office correspondence are also covered. Why Kaplan
