This week marks National Medical Transcriptionist Week and Acusis(R), a leading provider of outsourced medical transcription services, is recognizing its team of more than 300 transcriptionists throughout the United States and India for consistently delivering 98 percent accurate reports in a fast turnaround time of 24 hours or less. National Medical Transcriptionist Week celebrates the critical role that medical transcriptionists have in serving as the link between the physician and the patient and ensuring accurate patient record documentation.

Additionally, Acusis today announced that Acusis Quality Control Editor Judy Popovich has earned her certified medical transcriptionist (CMT) credential, which is the highest honor of professional achievement available to medical transcriptionists, from the American Association for Medical Transcription (AAMT). Acusis has promoted Popovich to Quality Assurance Auditor.

Popovich, who has more than 25 years of medical transcription experience, joined Acusis in May 2002. She has been instrumental in editing reports transcribed by Acusis' team of transcriptionists and providing them with feedback in a mentoring capacity. In her new role, she is responsible for auditing a sample of transcription reports, correcting and categorizing errors to provide continuous quality improvement feedback to the transcription team, and serving as a content expert.

Popovich qualified as a CMT by passing a rigorous two-part certification exam, which covered medical terminology, anatomy and physiology, disease processes, English language and usage, healthcare record, medical specialties and medical report types.

"Our quality assurance process is one of our differentiators that set us a part from other transcription companies. Before we deliver the final reports to our clients, they go through several quality assurance checks," Acusis President and CEO David Iwinski, Jr. said. "Judy is a seasoned transcriptionist and a valuable member of our quality assurance team. She has a proven track record of providing our transcriptionists with sound feedback to ensure that we continually deliver accurate reports in a fast turnaround that meet our clients' expectations."
