Medical Transcriptionist Cover Letter Sample

Dear Hiring Manager,

As a Medical Transcriptionist with 3 years of experience, I apply with enthusiasm for this position.

I am currently a Pool Medical Transcriptionist at Sunnybank Health Center. Mirroring your requirements, I transcribe medical reports (e.g. case histories, physicals, discharge summaries, operative reports, consultation reports) from recorded dictation. I proofread, review, and verify transcriptions for accuracy and quality, and correct errors in medical record number, patient name, procedure, date, spelling, punctuation, and grammar. This builds upon my earlier experience as an agency Medical Transcriptionist, where I completed temp assignments across Findlater County.

For me, medical transcription is fascinating work. I feel a great deal of pride in the accuracy and preciseness of my work, knowing that I have an invisible yet positive impact on patients, their families, and medical personnel. In addition to my professional experience, I hold a Bachelor of English Literature and a Certification in Medical Transcription (CMT).

I have loved my time at Sunnybank. As the hospital is reducing its transcriptionist pool due to budget restrictions, I am now seeking a full-time on-staff opportunity in an equally stimulating environment.

Please find attached my résumé for your consideration. Thank you very much for your time. I look forward to hearing from you regarding next steps.

Yours sincerely,

Robert Max
