Resume:

September **, ****

Dear Sir or Madam:

This letter is to preface my resume for a medical transcription position

with your company and to summarize my resume briefly for you.

In March 2011, I completed Everett Community College's Medical

Transcription certificate program with honors, a 3.44 overall grade point

average, and at the top of my class. Everett incorporates the Career Step

transcription training modules into their curriculum. I have taken other

college-level courses in the medical field, but I have found transcription

to be my infinitely preferred career path.

I began my position at Pearson Transcription in May 2011 as a medical

transcriptionist. Within three months, I became an editor on 28 medical

accounts, one of which had 11 separate regions and hundreds of providers,

another account was a registered nurse who dictated record reviews for

legal cases, and I also covered several legal accounts. The medical

accounts covered numerous types of reports ranging from Independent Medical

Evaluations to chart notes and consultations and multiple specialties

including forensic pathology, neurology/neurosurgery, pain management,

chiropractic, orthopedic surgery, psychiatric, neuropsychological, and oral

and maxillofacial surgery. The editing aspect involved quality assurance

and mentoring and instruction in the use of software, reference materials,

and client-specific guidelines/matrices, as well as education in

terminology and grammatical preferences, among many other responsibilities.

Multitasking, communication, and attention to detail were critical

components of this position.

My most recent position with tMedica as a hematology/oncology transcription

has unfortunately been eliminated. I do still transcribe orthopedic

dictation for them per diem.

I would appreciate an opportunity to speak with you to further discuss the

skills and value I have to offer to your company. Thank you for your time

and attention, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Christine A. Wilbur
