Product Description

Product Description

Long known as "the gold standard" for medical transcriptionists,The AAMT Book of Style for Medical Transcriptionaddresses points of grammar, punctuation, style, usage, editing, and much more. This new, improved Second Edition includes a comprehensive index prepared by a professional indexer. Style points have been reworked and enhanced, examples have been augmented for added clarity, practical hints have been placed in the margins, and points of grammar, punctuation, and usage are identified. The book is wider so that it lies flat when open and the type style and format are easier on the eye.

A CD-ROM (.pdf) version is included with the book at no extra cost.

This review is from: The Aamt Book of Style for Medical Transcription (Paperback)
As far as I am aware, there is no alternative to the AAMT Book of Style of Medical Transcription. Fortunately, just about everything you could want on the subject is included in this latest edition, the second version and last word on the subject. It is the standard to which one's transcribed reports will be held. Unfortunately, the latest edition is for some reason not available on Amazon; go to www.aamt.org and search their store to find the 2nd edition of the Book of Style, published in 2002. It's remarkably well updated and improved.

To be a transcriptionist one must not simply type the words being dictated. One must format the report so that it is readable and makes sense, preferably very clearly at a glance. The thousands of tips and style points within these covers are necessary to attain that goal. While I may not agree 100% with each of the individual style recommendations made in this book, my few reservations are overwhelmingly outnumbered by the many suggestions that solve problems in my everyday work and help me create the best work I possibly can. The price is not cheap, but no one who seriously hopes to make it in this field can be without this publication.

5.0 out of 5 stars a must for MTs, April 4 2011
This review is from: The AAMT Book of Style for Medical Transcription (Paperback)
It took a little while for the book to arrive, but once I had it, I found it to be worth the wait. It was in good condition for a second-hand book.
