Medical Transcription Resources

Medical transcription resources and references



Even the most seasoned health information specialist needs a library of medical transcription resources and references to refer to now and then. Here is a listing of some of the best resources available. If you come across a book or website that you think we should add, please send us the information or the link for our review using the "Contact Us" page. If you wish to do a book review to publish on this site, we would be happy to include that as well. After all, this is YOUR organization. We want to encourage your input and involvement!
