Pertinent, up-to-date, confidential patient information is converted to a written text document by a Medical Transcriptionist. This written text may be printed and hand placed in the patient's record, archived, and/or retained only as an electronic medical record. Medical transcription can be performed in a hospital, via remote transmission to the hospital, or directly to the actual providers of service (doctors or their group practices) in off-site locations. Hospital facilities often prefer electronic storage of medical records due to the sheer volume of hospital patients and the accompanying paperwork. The electronic storage in their database gives immediate access to subsequent departments or providers regarding the patient's care to date, notation of previous or present medications, notification of allergies, and establishes a history on the patient to facilitate healthcare delivery regardless of geographical distance or location.
