5 Medical Transcription Companies Hiring Homebased Transcribers

If you think you’re good at this kind of job, you can check out the following companies that hire medical transcriptionists:

Medical transcription companies hiring home-based employees generally require transcribers with the ability to convert audio files fast and accurately. Although there are a number of online transcription companies hiring medical transcriptionists, their requirements differ. Some medical transcriptionist companies offer jobs that are only applicable for those with several years of experience in the industry while some open their medical transcriptionist hiring to inexperienced but competent applicants.

One of the challenges of finding home-based transcription jobs is that the opportunities are often limited to those who have had experience working for medical transcriptionist companies. Fortunately, there are companies that accept entry-level applicants without experience. Although BabbleType says it requires applicants to have at least one year experience in legal/general  and medical transcription, there are individuals who transcribe for BabbleType without prior experience. The company also prefers Asian transcribers from Singapore, Indonesia, India, Malaysia, Vietnam and the Philippines.
