medical transcriptionists who are knowledgeable, accurate, hardworking,
smart, dedicated and dependable, and this need exists daily. A professional
MT, even one just beginning, is expected to have a certain level
of required medical, language, and technical knowledge and skills
along with the necessary typing acuity to perform the data entry
job. The bottom line is that knowledge and skills are constants.

not be needed, that the MT will be completely replaced by computers
and voice recognition systems? While that possibility exists, it
is not seen in the immediate future.

of medicine requiring proficiency in the knowledge of medical language
and technical skills, and today’s marketplace commands the
successful MT to possess a variety of skills, which includes use
