Pathology reports don't leave much room for guesswork — a mistranscribed cell count or a misheard diagnosis term can ripple straight into a patient's treatment plan. We're looking for a
Remote Pathology Transcriptionist who understands that weight and handles it with the precision it deserves. This is a full-time remote role paying $60,000 annually.
What You'd Be Doing
Pathologists and other healthcare professionals dictate their findings, and it's your job to turn that into clean, accurate written documentation — fast enough to meet deadlines, careful enough that nothing gets lost or misheard along the way. You'd be working most of the time independently, but staying in close contact with the clinicians whose dictations you're transcribing whenever something needs clarifying.
Your Responsibilities
- Transcribe pathology dictations with correct interpretation of specialized medical terminology.
- Proofread your own work for grammar, spelling, and terminology errors before submission.
- Manage your workload to consistently meet tight turnaround deadlines.
- Follow HIPAA regulations and company policy to keep patient information secure at every step.
- Reach out to healthcare professionals directly when a dictation is unclear, or something doesn't add up.
- Keep building your knowledge of pathology terminology and transcription practices as the field evolves.
Qualifications
Education: High school diploma or equivalent (minimum). A certification in medical transcription strengthens your application but isn't mandatory.
Experience: At least 2 years of medical transcription experience, with a focus specifically on pathology reports.
You'll also need real fluency with transcription software, fast, accurate typing, and a solid grasp of medical terminology, anatomy, and pathology-specific vocabulary. The kind of attention to detail that catches a small inconsistency before it becomes a bigger problem matters more here than almost anywhere else in transcription work. Strong written and spoken English rounds it out, along with the discipline to manage your own time well in a remote setting.
What Makes Someone a Strong Fit
- Genuine comfort working with dense, specialized medical language.
- Consistency under deadline pressure — accuracy doesn't slip when the clock's running.
- A quiet but firm commitment to patient confidentiality, even when no one's checking your work in real time.
- Willingness to reach out and ask when a dictation is genuinely unclear, rather than guessing.
Compensation and Perks
- $60,000 annual salary.
- Fully remote work with a schedule that supports actual work-life balance.
- Ongoing training and development opportunities in medical transcription and pathology specifically.
- A team environment that supports you rather than leaving you to figure things out alone.
The Bigger Picture
Naukri Mitra places transcriptionists with healthcare organizations that treat documentation accuracy as central to patient care, not an afterthought. Every report you transcribe eventually informs a diagnosis or treatment decision somewhere down the line — that's not abstract; it's the actual weight of the work. If you're the kind of person who takes that seriously without needing to be reminded, you'll fit in well here.
