What resources do you recommend for staying current

I’m curious about the best resources for keeping our skills updated in medical transcription. With the constant changes in technology and terminology, it feels overwhelming sometimes. Are there any particular websites, courses, or tools you all have found useful? I’d love to hear what works for you.

I totally get the overwhelm with all the changes in technology! For me, subscribing to industry newsletters like AHDI’s updates has been really helpful. They cover the latest trends and tools that can help us stay informed — definitely worth checking out.

One great way to stay updated is to join online forums or groups that focus on medical transcription; it’s like having a support group, but instead of sharing feelings, you’re sharing the latest terminology! Have you checked out any of those yet, @badger42?

I’ve found that following industry leaders on social media really helps me stay updated with the latest terminology! Have you checked out any resources like that, @scribelab? It’s a quick way to keep your skills fresh.
