CTech has both domestic and offshore resources! Unlike many other
companies that offshore their work to India without knowledge
of where the work is actually being done, CTech owns and operates
(CTech InfoSolutions Private Limited) as its own state-of-the-art
medical transcription production environment in New Delhi, India.
Medical Transcription Outsourcing has been a national trend over
the last decade, with organizations choosing to focus on core
job functions in an effort to contain costs. Transcription is
often outsourced in an effort to reduce overhead costs, ensure
consistent workflow, and accelerate the facility’s revenue flow
by providing timely reimbursement for care. Offshore resources
for transcription can further reduce costs for a facility.
As reported by MTIA and AAMT there are an insufficient number
of qualified medical transcriptionists in the United States and
the total number of qualified medical transcriptionists has not
grown quickly enough to keep up with the increasing demand for
transcribed reports. Training transcriptionists internally is
expensive for employers who are dealing with decreasing profit
margins, as healthcare providers are forced to cut costs everywhere
possible.
CTech views itself as a progressive, global company with employees
positioned all over the United States and India. CTech does provide
its clients with successful offshore and domestic solutions for
medical transcription. As part of the long-term, trusting relationship,
CTech practices full disclosure with clients, meaning that if
a client is required to keep their work with domestic resources
then CTech will provide contract documentation to that effect.
Many of CTech’s most successful implementations and ongoing client
operations have utilized a “blended” approach to domestic and
offshore. For example, some work types would stay with domestic
resources and some would be the responsibility of CTech’s offshore
resources.
