    IME Transcriptionists Are Better for IMEs

    Your in-house MT or transcription service is no doubt great at handling your day-to-day office notes and correspondence, but dropping an hour-long IME dictation in your MT's lap is like asking your accountant to take over your landscaping:  The job may very well get done, but will it get done very well?

    At Independent Medical Transcription, Inc., all of our MTs have undergone rigorous testing and supervised training in order to become IME experts.  What does that mean for you?

    • We are adept at not only medical terms (anatomy, physiology, pharmaceuticals, etc.) but also legal and insurance industry terminology specific to medico-legal reviews and forensic reports.
    • We understand that such reports are legal documents that reflect upon you as a professional and must be able to stand up in a court of law.
    • By outsourcing lengthy and complex IME dictations, you have fewer questions to answer, and your office staff is free to care better for their daily tasks.

    Why Reports from IMT Are Better:

    Dates are written out to ensure accuracy.

    Abbreviations are expanded for improved clarity.

    Reviewer's comments are made to stand out from surrounding text.

    Reports are carefully formatted for maximum readability and ease of locating information.

    Records are organized chronologically, even if you didn't have time to dictate them that way.

    Dictate as much or as little as you'd like at one time, and review and edit your report in progress at any point.

    Possible discrepancies or oversights and any questions from the MT will be clearly flagged so you can examine and resolve them before sending out your report.

    Information from available cover letter(s) will be incorporated into the report, including reviewer questions buried in the text that may have been overlooked.

    Reports will always be completed according to your preferences, maintaining the highest level of profes­sionalism, promptness, and completeness.

     

    Optional Report Features:
    • Appendices & indices
    • Bibliographies & peer-reviewed journal references
    • Charts & tables embedded within text
    • Tables of contents

      I have been a physician expert for 15 years. I have used IMT for a large part of that time and have worked with Gerri Newman throughout. I have also used multiple other transcription services over those years and none come even close to IMT's quality of work, their incredible attention to detail, the cleanness of their report product and great customer service interface.IMT is truly the "Intel Inside" of my forensic business. My business runs more smoothly and I provide far higher quality products having them under the covers of my operation. They do exceptionally well for rush requests, special requests and really anything I need when it comes to creating quality report products. I cannot say enough about my experience with them. Michael.

      Timely and reliable service that has been wonderful even though I use them very part-time! It is SO much better than than my former efforts at voice activated dictation. Their proof reading is such a bonus!

      IMT is the best medical transcription service I have worked over my nearly 15 years of doing independent medical examinations. I can't remember the last time their staff made a transcription error. Turnaround is also amazingly fast on a routine basis and President Gerri Newman is always accessible and willing to go the extra mile to handle special situations.
