Know the company you're dealing with - and if they provide HIPAA compliant transcription.
Online transcription services operate all around the world. For some people, a good-looking transcription website with promises of low prices and great service is enough to capture their interest.
But beyond low-price promises, due diligence is needed. That’s why Research Transcriptions provides complete corporate transparency.

Why choose Research Transcriptions for medical research - 5 reasons:
1. Specialization and experience.
Avoid the risks and uncertainties of global freelance transcription websites.
Hire Research Transcriptions and get a dedicated team of Certified Research Transcriptionists (CRTs) in the United States with expertise in medical terminology and pharmaceuticals. Put nineteen years of HIPAA compliant transcription experience to work for you.
Fields of expertise include:

2.Less time proofing. More time analyzing. Confident conclusions.
Conduct your analysis with the confidence of knowing that 100% of your English research transcription has been transcribed in American English (AmE) in the United States.
This means that American idioms, slang, expressions and proper pronouns that are important in human research insights won’t be skipped over.

3. Convenience: online transcription and translation services in over 37 languages.
Enjoy the convenience of having your foreign language transcription and translation service in one place. At Research Transcriptions, we transcribe and translate over 37 languages, including Spanish, Chinese, French, German, Korean, Japanese and more.
Note: All English transcription work is performed in the United States. Transcription and translation service in other languages is performed in the country native to the language. Due to the lack of jurisdiction by US law over workers in other countries, Research Transcriptions is not able to guarantee confidentiality for this work.
