Hello Community,

The Association for Healthcare Document Integrity (AHDI) provides educational guidelines for educators in the Curriculum for Medical Transcription. Currently, there are no accredited medical transcription education programs. AHDI recommends candidates take a two-year program that includes a transcription externship program of a minimum of 100 hours. Intensive study should take place in medical terminology and health care documentation. Medical transcription schooling is not mandatory, but most employers require it in order to get the foot in the door. Proprietary and vocational-technical schools, community colleges and online programs offer medical transcription courses.


Thanks and Regards,
