Medical Transcription Business Grows

MTS of Kansas will soon relocate its west Wichita office to Clifton Square, where president and CEO Donella Aubuchon started her medical transcription service in 1989.

During the past 20 years, Aubuchon's business has grown and transformed in many ways.

In addition to providing transcription for doctors at more than 20 facilities across Kansas, Aubuchon launched an online course last year to help train those interested in joining the field.

"As we grew, I had to reach out and hire more medical transcriptionists as individual contractors," Aubuchon said. "I looked at anybody and gave everybody what I felt was a fair shot. But I realized very quickly there were a lot of people who weren't being adequately trained."

The course, Advanced MT, offers training quite different from what Aubuchon received before starting her career as a transcriptionist for Wichita physician Michael Patton. Originally planning to be a registered nurse, Aubuchon, who worked in Patton's office, persuaded him to give her a chance to handle the day-to-day transcription tasks after she completed a course at Wichita Area Technical College.
