About Us

About Our Company

Independent Medical Transcription, Inc. (IMT), got its start in Seattle, Washington, in the year 1994. Our corporation president, Gerri Newman, entered the medical field as a solo transcriptionist for a single physician's office, working under the name "Executive Assistance." With support from a colleague, Gerri soon took on two IME panel companies as clients, discovered the world of independent medical examinations, and became an enduring member of the claims community.

After further growth requiring the contracting of additional transcriptionists, IMT was incorporated in Washington State in April of 2003 and then in September of 2016 in Florida. As of 2020, IMT employs five full-time administrative staff members and works with 16 medical transcriptionists averaging 17.6 years of transcription experience and encompassing numerous medical specialties.

Our corporation president herself is an experienced MT who knows the industry inside and out, being capable of identifying and handling problems before they enter anyone else's radar, all the while treating her ICs^¹ and employees with respect and compensating them well for their expertise and hard work.

IMT believes in strict attention to detail, over-the-top customer service, and dignifying all those who help keep our business thriving. While never neglecting our meticulous requirements for grammar, formatting, and deadlines, we strive to always remain professional, personable, and approachable. We work hard to communicate clearly and efficiently between our clients and transcriptionists so that all know what is required and expected in order to do our jobs well and get your reports done on time.

We also pride ourselves on the fact that we are not a behemoth MTSO^² that ships your dictation to offshore contractors at the lowest possible rate (resulting in a commensurate level of quality). Rather, if you have a special project that carries a high level of complexity or a particularly tight deadline, or if you require urgent assistance with any report issue you may be having, Gerri and her team will be available to work directly with you and our MTs to get the matter resolved to your satisfaction.

Simply by holding to the above standards, IMT has built a sterling reputation among forensic physicians and IME panel companies throughout the Pacific Northwest. Based on this foundation, we are now working nationwide, with administrative staff and medical transcriptionists working from every time zone in the contiguous United States. We are dedicated to helping all of our associates continue to grow, from aiding our MTs to develop their skill sets and become ever more adept at handling complex IME reports to assisting our physicians and experts see an increase in lucrative referrals because of the high-quality reports we help them produce.

Whether you represent a major IME panel company, a personal injury law firm, or an insurance company; whether you are a physician or specialist who has been called upon to testify as an expert witness; or whether you are a dedicated and experienced MT looking to apply your knowledge to an exciting field that touches the lives of everyday people, you're in the right place!

Just let us know how we can grow together and build a stronger future while helping you accomplish your professional goals and meeting the unique needs and challenges of the medical claims community.

Brief Bio: Aloha kākou — Hello everyone. I am originally from the island of O‘ahu but now live in Washington state. In my spare time, I like to try new cuisines and, weather permitting, to explore the outdoors or different places with family and friends. Prior to transcribing medical reports, I specialized in many areas in my nursing career (nearly a decade): med-surg, postpartum (hospital setting), and float nurse in various departments. My favorite department to work in was postpartum.
