York, NE *****
To whom it may concern:
I am writing you in response to an employment posting on the website www.getmedicaltranscriptionjobs.com.
I am interested in becoming a Medical Transcriptionist for your company, as it suits my interest and skills.
As you can see in my attached resume, I have worked in various positions within the health care industry. In
these positions, I learned the importance of accuracy in documentation for patient/hospital records, and
confidentiality/HIPAA. I have working knowledge of Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, Power Point, and other
computer programs. I do believe that I have the organization skills, and attention to detail that is required
when working with, and transcribing legal documents such as medical records.
You can see on my attached resume, that I have obtained a certificate in Medical Transcription. I have taken
appropriate college classes that give me a good understanding of medical terminology as well as different
diagnosis’ and medications. At home, I am already equipped with the Infinity transcription foot pedal and
software so I am familiar with the equipment needed to listen to dictations. Through an internship I
completed with York General Hospital in the Health Informatio n Management department, I have gained first-
hand experience listening to dictations from various physicians, and transcribing actual medical records of all
types. I feel that the MT certification program that I have completed has prepared me for the respo nsibilities
that come with being a medical transcriptionist.
I hope that you consider me for the position and I would welcome the opportunity to be a part of your
team producing quality medical documents for your clients. I look forward to visiting with you for an interview
at your earliest convenience. Please feel free to reach me at 402-***-****, or acf8fe@r.postjobfree.com.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Sarah E Straub
