Excellent Content

I found this book very useful and informative. There are a number of errors (probably typos) giving incorrect answers to questions on the CD Rom or the book, or both. With appropriate corrections it could be a five star rating.
Excellent medical transcription training resource!

The Essential's of Medical Transcription book- A Modular Approach...complete with CD Rom is excellent. Provides the beginning Medical Transcriptionist (or advanced MT) with a new way of study to increase their knowledge of skills necessary for a Medical Transcription career. Divided into two units of focus, the first part of the book provides you with medical terminology, keyboarding and proofreading skills. The second section focuses on different medical specialties (including: Family medicine, Orthopedic practice, Urology practice, Pulmonary medicine, Gastroenterology practice, Cardiology practice and Diagnostic Imagine practice) to give the reader a broad range of knowledge and experience in the medical field. The CD Rom that accompanies the book gives the reader a chance for "hands-on" experience using their home computer to practice transcribing outpatient report simulations. All chapters contain review worksheets and timed transcription exercises. I highly recommend this book/CD ROM package.
