Assessment of Quality Management in Medical Transcription

Abstract
In this paper we examine the timeliness of the transcription process, as measured by Turn-Around Time (TAT). We investigate and provide some answers to the following issues and questions.

We also explore the impact of new technologies such as Speech Recognition Technology (SRT) and other technology on the medical transcription industry.
