Complete MTPractice Training BUT WITHOUT Supplemental Reference Books shown or Certificate: 

• Question:  Why on earth would someone want a training course but WITHOUT supplemental reference books or a Certificate? 

  Answer:  Students who wish to further their knowledge and skills in Medical Transcription but may already have reference books they wish to consult (i.e., Nurses, Unit Secretaries); OR perhaps current MTs who are locked into one work type with their employer (Hospitals often do this) and who may also already have access to or own a comprehensive MT library, yet who have no desire/need for a certificate, etc. would be interested in this ordering option.  THIS OPTION DOES, HOWEVER, INCLUDE THE MTPRACTICE REFERENCE GUIDE AND THE TRANSCRIBER ALONG WITH ALL TRAINING MODULES AND THEIR CASSETTES.  THE STUDENT IS NOT TESTED FOR COMPETENCY IN THIS ORDERING OPTION.  

  This is everything EXCEPT FOR THE CERTIFICATE OR SUPPLEMENTAL MEDICAL REFERENCE BOOKS:  This takes the student from A to Z in transcription WITHOUT THE NEED FOR TESTING OR CERTIFICATE ISSUANCE.  This will cover all of the work types and give all dictation work type practice.  The MTPractice modules were created as an affordable, accelerated study,  job specific, self-guided, self-contained correspondence training to be completed in five (5) months (or LESS) when administered in their entirety (learning all modules), combined total instruction and transcription time.  Of course, the modules may also be studied individually as a job-advancement aid and are used by experienced transcriptionists seeking job upgrading/advancement training by learning additional report types.  MTPractice will consider the student purchasing this option as an 'independent study student' under this purchase/education option. 

• Please Note:  Pictured below is the entire certificate course and is placed here ONLY for referral.  This ordering option (no supplemental reference books and no testing required or certificate provided) and includes everything you see below and the Welcome MT Student book on the left in photo, EXCEPT the supplemental reference books shown on the left in the photo.  Although the Welcome MT Student book consists of testing materials for obtaining a Certificate, this reference is exceptionally helpful and we include it for you.  Mug of tea, coaster, and the headset which is pictured below  are for demonstration purposes only - although we would sincerely like to teach you how to earn your own $$ coaster as pictured ! !  

Your Panasonic transcriber and foot pedal, and supplied Panasonic headset are in the box shown and ARE INCLUDED in this No. References Course option.

The MTPractice Reference Guide (Shown on right side in above picture) - This is our companion to the MTPractice Medical Transcription Training Modules and offers additional text reading and instruction.  This addresses basic and specific medical transcription areas:  Report logs, punctuation, dosages, abbreviations, headers, AutoCorrect, dangling lines, addendum, spacing, symbols, hyphenation, capitalization, and many more valuable transcription 'pointers', and is presented in bound book form.  This is an exceptional reference and one you may choose to refer to again and again.  All Seven Training Modules (each shown above with their accompanying diskette):  H&P, Consultations, Ops & Procedure Notes, Discharge Summaries & Psychiatric Practice, Basic Medical Records; Tests, Biopsies, & Studies; and Productivity Modules.  All of the modules noted have a total of 324 dictated reports; actual dictation length 23 hours which equates to 69 hours of hands-on practice transcription time.   AND The Transcriber Unit - The brand-new Panasonic RR-830 standard size cassette model (subject to supplier's continued availability-in which case, substitution of a comparable model is reserved) which includes the standard  manufacturer's warranty, and includes the headset and foot pedal.   

The student will NOT be tested throughout the textbook study, at the end each work type OR in Final Examination at the end of this "Without References Course, and will  NOT receive the Course Completion Certificate.  This purchase option INCLUDES all seven transcription training modules, the MTPractice Reference Guide, and the transcriber but NO course textbooks, however, the MTPractice Reference Guide and all specific Module Instruction Books are included.   PURCHASE THE CERTIFICATE COURSE:  RECEIVE ALL (7/seven) MODULES, THE TRANSCRIBER UNIT, AND THE MTPRACTICE REFERENCE GUIDE: ...................$886.00 (S/H included  AND MTPractice pays your Sales Tax)

• Please Note:  The Two Payment Option is only offered on orders paid by check or money order.  The MTPractice modules were created as an affordable, accelerated study,  job specific, self-guided, self-contained correspondence training to be completed in five (5) months (or LESS) when administered in their entirety (learning all modules), combined total instruction and transcription time.  Of course, the modules may also be studied individually as a job-advancement aid and are used by experienced transcriptionists seeking job upgrading/advancement training by learning additional report types.  MTPractice will consider the student purchasing this option as an 'independent study student' under this purchase/education option. 

• Course of Instruction:  The MTPractice Training Modules offer hands-on training in the 'Basic Four' Employable Work Types.  The 'Basic Four' work types are used in both the hospital setting and in doctor's offices.  Each module contains complete reports dictated on standard cassettes, a hard copy printout of each dictated report, a sample 'preferred format' template diskette suitable for 'Word', the MTPractice Medical Transcription Reference Guide and the MTPractice Detailed Report Instructions. The 'Basic Four' work types consist of History and Physical Examinations, Consultations, Operative and Procedure Notes, and Discharge Summaries. The MTPractice modules also offer supplemental practice in specialty reports, including:  Emergency Room Reports, Clinic Notes, Follow-up/SOAP Notes, and Miscellaneous Reports, plus Tests, Biopsies, and Study Reports.  Also included in the complete MTPractice set is the MTPractice Word Expansion Module, the cassette tape transcriber unit, and our own MTPractice Transcription Reference Guide, which addresses basic medical transcription, report logs, punctuation, dosages, abbreviations, headers, AutoCorrect, dangling lines, addendum, spacing, symbols, hyphenation, capitalization, medical word review, prefixes and suffixes, report logs, and transcription employers, plus much more.  

The self-guided training offered for the above report work types in addition to the exposure to the terms and terminology used in the transcription of these reports readies the graduate student for entry into the very lucrative field of Medical Transcription which has an ever-increasing need for on-site (in facility) and off-site (at home) transcriptionists. DEMAND OCCUPATION REFERENCE: U.S. Dept. of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Occupational Outlook Handbook, reporting on Medical Transcriptionists, available on the Internet using the link below: http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos271.htm#outlook.
