Meditec, a Utah based Medical Transcription company. Having been in business for 40 years they have continued to teach students online and via distance learning how to survive during tough times like the current global recession. Having pioneered many of the online educational resources in their field, Meditec has additionally been servicing their industry in the online market space for over 15 years.

According to Tom Barry of the Atlanta Business Chronicle the healthcare industry is less affected by recession. He quotes the University of Georgia’s Economic Outlook 2002, stating “Health services typically are viewed as necessities, which consumers are very reluctant to forgo or even postpone, even during hard times,” due to the fact that people need healthcare and they hesitate to cut back on that even when things are not good, therefore, jobs in healthcare are for the most part stable through recessions. This does not mean, however, that the healthcare industry will not feel a recession to some degree. Bringing on extra staff or starting additional projects like new wings of a hospital, wage freezes, or extra employee benefit plans may be things that would be affected during a recession. Hospitals or doctors’ offices may be inclined to work with the least amount of staff possible, but there will continue to be a need for qualified healthcare and support personnel in both the good and bad economic times.

It is always a wise idea for an individual to think ahead and have a plan in place should a job loss occur for any reason. Gaining new and additional skills especially during a recession is a smart idea. A medical transcriptionist would be wise to cross train into medical coding or billing. A medical coder or biller would be smart to obtain training in medical transcription. The more varied skill sets one has to fall back on, the less chance of floundering during an unexpected job loss. Additionally, enhancing your skills is a smart idea in case you ever want to launch out on your own and start your own business. If you can transcribe the medical record, then code it, then bill it, you have the capacity to triple your income. Many people today find themselves in jobs that are not what they have their college degree in. Last week, I read a post on a message board from a woman who had just completed her master’s degree in counseling and has been unable to find a job in her field. It was suggested she begin looking for work using her degree in another capacity like the human services field for now. In my opinion, even more important than having money in the bank during a recession is having a large repertoire of employable job skills.
