Voice Files

As medical transcription becomes more essential to the medical profession, so too does the equipment associated with this process. The quality of a voice recording will vary depending on the type of compression and the equipment on which it is recorded. But regardless of the file type, a good transcriptionist will be able to transfer this information into a secure document.

Medical transcription begins with a voice file. This file is either recorded onto tape or onto a digital recorder where it is then prepared for transcription. During this process, this dictation will typically be transferred into a high-quality WAV file for thorough examination. This computer-based file allows for repeated playback, without the worry of losing essential information due to a broken tape or computer crash.

Another option is to compress this voice file into an MP3. Similar to the files we use for music downloads, an MP3 is a smaller file that can be later be sent via secure email or stored with the rest of the transcribed material. The key to a thorough and accurate transcription is the ability to retain a clear recording for playback and evaluation.
