A lot of medical transcriptionists fail to succeed on this type ofwork because they lack understanding of what the job requiresfrom them. They were attracted on the advantages of workingat home but were not able to see and identify that theseadvantages have to be enjoyed but not abused. One of thecommon problems is missed deadlines. At home you get to doa lot of fun things like watching TV, taking frequent snacks,and sleeping longer hours. There’s no problem with that. Theproblem comes in when you start spend more and more timedoing these things and being less mindful of the job you signedinto. At that instant you may think that you are only takinga while from your work hours and that you’ll catch up onthe following day. But as you get closer to the deadline you’llfind out that you are not even half-way the job because youspent more time doing unnecessary things and put aside thejob entrusted to you by your employer. Once this happen youstart cramming. Trying to complete the task on whatever timeis left for you to get it done. In doing that the quality of thedocumentations you’ll make will surely be affected. You mightmiss words and worse, misunderstand words that might give adifferent context to what you are supposed to be transcribing.

A successful home-based transcriptionist knows how tohandle and manage the freedom and the obligation that thisjob gives. You don’t just take advantage of what’s good foryou but you also have to be considerate and reliable for thosedepending on your output. The doctor you are transcribing forbelieved that you can deliver to his expectations, and that trustis something a responsible employee would always be mindfulof.
