Medical Analysts play a very important or rather, a very significant role in the health industry. With out the service of Medical Analysts, the physicians cannot go ahead with their work. Imagine a situation where a doctor examines a patient and give a prescription. The next time the patient comes for the consultation, the doctor can give further prescriptions only after reviewing the medical reports, which is prepared by the Medical Analysts. What will happen if the doctor does not have the medical reports? He might have met hundreds of patients and so itself, he won't be able to remember the analysis and prescription for each and every patient of his. Here lies the significance of maintaining proper medical records and the help of Medical Analysts to prepare such the same.
The physicians have to meet many patients daily and, naturally he will be busy. They won't get time to prepare the medical documents of each and every patient they meet daily. So what they do is dictate the patient details, diagnosis, prescription, treatment plans etc into a voice recorder. This voice files will be send to the Medical Analysts. And it is the responsibility of the Medical Analysts to convert this voice files into document forms. So a Medical Analyst's job is one that requires a higher level of concentration and intellectual ability.
