Is outsourcing the medical transcription work to off-shore companies an advisable practice?

[Russel_D]

I am thinking of outsourcing medical transcription to an offshore company. Is this the best idea? Can anyone suggest a good company for medical transcription outsourcing?

Of course it's the best idea - it saves money doesn't it? Far more important than accuracy or reducing the risk to lives.

And unless my spam antenna has gotten oversensitive the best company is obviously yours. And if perchance the antenna has goofed, the question still deserves the same reply.

There are already companies doing this, if you are thinking of jumping on the bandwagon it's already being done. The process is fraught with governance issues, security of medical records being but one.
