It may change as more providers move to electronic medical records, but there will always be a need for people to get the correct data into the records, especially since it has been proven that voice recognition software is unreliable, particularly when foreign accents vary as much as they can in major metropolitan medical facilities.

Medical transcription will become obsolete over the next severalyears. Voice recognition programs are becoming more popular and with a little bit of time and effort by the dictator, are quite reliable.
Also, with electronic medical records, healthcare workers are entering data directly into the chart.
There will always be work in the healthcare field, but it may be wise to pursue a career more geared toward electronic medical records.

With offshore and speech recognition still developing, a lot of transcriptionists are still employed as such, while some others are moving into positions as editors.
There’s a huge learning curve both for offshore and speech recognition and a lot of corrections are required. The field is evolving, but there is still a need for good transcriptionists.
