Medical transcription course ?
Q. I am looking at medical transcription courses and noticed your note regarding HPI. The only home study course I've checked into is At-Home-Professions. How does they compare? or do you know? Also, how could I obtain information regarding HPI? Any suggestion or help would be appreciated.
A. The best home study course I have found is through HPI (Health Professional Institutes). It is rather high, but is a great course. You will need to purchase a transcriber either for standard or micro-cassettes. Most doctors this date are using micro-cassettes. You will need to purchase a medical dictionary, as well as a drug book. SRG developed its Medical Transcription Independent Study Course (MTISC) in 1990. Our course uses the SUM System, but includes SRG's own study guide with reading exercises, and transcription assignments for the full 31 units of the course. SRG also includes an excellent selection of 17 reference and college-level textbooks that will serve the student long after he/she has completed the course. Our course also includes a dictation/transcription unit, so that the student will be able to use the machine to tape off dictation later - plus being able to use it while taking the course. In addition, we intern many of our top students, bringing them in and working with them, helping them get their foot in the door.
