I personally can not say if med transcriptionists will be out of a job, BUT, EMR is being mandated by the federal government (electronic medical records) which is usually done by the MD on a computer; with no dictation. So i would guess that long range, med trans. will be a dinosaur.

MT, billing, and coding all 3 great careers!EMR will not do away w/ dictation. VR has been around now for years and there is still plenty of MT work. Many doctors tried VR and gave it up.
There are online schools that offer training in MT, coding, and billing. This is a wise choice because if you get your own clients you can offer all 3 services. Plus, the output of money for education is much lower.
Best wishes to you.
