The AltaPoint EMR applications in use by specialty practices, especially Psychiatry clinics are now provided with web-based medical transcription support for documenting patient’s psychiatry reports. The web-based service is offered to multi-practices through a login access to the EMR application which is enabled with a Virtual Private Network (VPN). |
VPN setup by Medical Transcriptions Service
After conferring with the healthcare facilities IT staff, the technical team of Medical Transcriptions Service establishes a HIPAA compliant HL-7 standard Virtual Private Network with the health care facilities EMR software application.

In-house or home based MT’s no longer a preferred option
Many healthcare facilities have difficulties in hiring in-house staff for transcription, and the scenario is similar in many hospitals and clinics. The existing staff are either too old or find it difficult to adjust to the switchover from paper records to electronic medical records. In some of the facilities home based medical transcribers were hired for documenting patient recordsbut that was when paper records were being used, now after the switchover to digital records, HIPAA regulations make it mandatory for healthcare facilities to ensure that medical records of the patients remain within the EHR systems in use by them, with top priority being accorded to privacy and confidentiality issues related to patients healthcare records.
