Medical Transcription (MT) business has been there for more than a decade in India now. There is speculation that MT business will not survive for long due to research being done in Speech Recognition. The author feels that this is incorrect. People will still be needed to edit the output of speech recognition software since there will be a lot of errors. People with good listening skills and good grasp of English fundamentals and common sense will not only survive but will flourish. Amongst other BPO areas, MT is lot better than working in call centres with the graveyard shifts as MT can be done during any part of the day or night (usually there are standard shifts and MT can also be done in the comforts of one’s home).
Here at Software Paradigms, MT business has been growing steadily. In the last 2-3 years, head count has increased as new clients are added. In a few years, SPI could very well be the largest MT company in the world. If one has the skills required for MT he/she can easily give a try and learn the comforts of working hard. It is a great opportunity for those who want to work hard in a growing business area.
