National Medical Transcription Week is May 17-23, 2010, and MTIA has a message:

With our nation engaged in dialogue around healthcare reform, and healthcare delivery engaged in discussions around what “meaningful use” of EHRs will look like, there has never been a more important time for the healthcare documentation sector to stand up and demonstrate its contributory value to these critical issues.

Per the MTIA Blog, providers, medical transcriptionists and MTSOs are encouraged to print the MT Week poster and place it post it in your workplace, share it with your clients, and promote it to regulatory agencies and legislators.

In addition, if you are an MT or MT employer, consider an investment in this future value proposition by enrolling yourself or your employees in our Speech Recognition Editing Course and receive a special $100 discount off the cost of registration for May and June courses in celebration of MT Week.
