RE: Medical Transcriptionist (Home Based)
I'm writing in response to your advertisement for a Medical
Transcriptionist. I completed a medical transcription course May 2013. I
have over twenty years' experience in the medical setting as an Interpreter
for the Deaf which required me to know and to understand medical terms,
surgeries, and procedures. I have the credits for several associate
degrees for which I have applied. I am proficient in of word processing,
creating databases, spreadsheets, and formatting documents for desktop
publishing.
Language is my specialty, and I possess strong grammar, speech, and
spelling skills. In addition, I provided support services via contract to
the healthcare systems, hospitals, and clinics in the Virginia area. My
experience brought me into daily contact with physicians, as well as
medical staff who speak English as a second language enhancing my ability
to understand medical jargon and strong accents.
An opportunity to tell you more about my work experience would be greatly
appreciated and how my skill set could fit into the area of Medial
Transcription. I look forward to discussing the position with you.
Sincerely,
Patricia O'Berry
