Medical Transcription is a big market and hospitals pay well for the service.
Start looking into this market.
There is a startup that I met on Monday at the RockHealth meetup called 'Beyond Lucid' which is changing the way ambulances select which hospital to route a patient to, as well as providing electronic forms for the ambulance encounters to be filled in -- contact them and offer to whitelabel your audio transcription service as a bolt on to their offering
beyondlucid.com - founder is Christian Witt and their chief eng is David Saylor (first name dot last name at beyondlucid.com)
There may be legal ramifications for getting into medical transcription which I am not aware of though (bond insurance etc.) -- should be easy enough to figure out though.
Talk to the guys at Dr Chrono. I think this was a feature they were asked for - again, it may be a license/whitelabel opportunity.
edit:
One application which would be amazing would be to have this service coupled with an app like Phone Tap (getphonetap.com) where I can record a phone call, then with a click upload and have it transcribed and emailed to me.
This would be great for consumers fighting phone companies, and customer support/call center applications if you could run it and capture phone audio somehow...
- braindead_in 15y agoAny medical transcription is required to HIPPA compliant, which basically requires that you have your own facility and protect the data. We can't ever be able to do that, which kind of rules out the medical transcription market for us. White-labeling and partnering with other recording services is a really good idea and we are pursing it. We are working an API using which you can offer transcripts and use our service in the backend. That's high on our list of TODO things.
