Outsourcing MT

One industry that is very prone to outsourcing is healthcare medical jobs. Medical transcription for instance, is widely outsourced to home based transcriptionists that are pre screened and approved to meet HIPAA requirements. There are also huge outsourcing facilities that house thousands of medical transcriptionists and their combined capacities are able to handle the transcription requirements of entire hospital chains. The outsourcing of such jobs used to be limited to US based workers but through the years, offshore transcribers have also been proven to be as reliable but a lot cheaper.
