Comfy way to healthy pay

`Work from home' is the latest offer on the billboard. And it is provided by Worldtech Medical Technology Services. Isn't it tempting?



GRAB THE OFFER: With the medical transcription industry on the comeback trail, job opportunities are bound to soar.

Got a computer and Internet connection at home? Then brush up your typing and listening skills and be ready to rake in a few fast bucks. That is what Worldtech Medical Technology Services, a pioneer in the medical transcription services in the State, is offering.

The company, set up in 1998, is looking at expanding its staff strength from the existing 400 to, at least, 2,500 by 2007.

The offer to work from home comes as part of this plan and is an open invitation to housewives, retired employees and other unemployed persons to become part of its efforts to offer a clean copy to its 700-plus client doctors in the US, says its Managing Director, Ramakrishna Tummala.

Pointing out that the industry is worth 18 billion dollars today and on the comeback trail, with the demand on a constant rise in the US, Mr. Ramakrishna says the `work from home' career opportunity would be a boon for those who have an inclination to work hard and earn more.

"A computer, an Internet connection and a headphone along with the software we give is all that is required," Mr. Ramakrishna says, adding that those aspiring to work from home will have to attend a three-month class at Worldtech, and then undergo an on-the-job training for a similar period. Stipends are offered during this period. With Worldtech all set to expand its clientele network to the UK, Canada and Australia, more work is expected, and that explains the need for more hands, he says. The scenario could only get better in Andhra Pradesh as the Government is proposing to introduce medical transcription as a course. Worldtech is part of the body forming the curriculum for this course, the company's General Manager, Venkat Nimmagadda, says. Those interested in finding out more can contact the company over the phone numbers 23352697/698/700 or drop in at Worldtech, 6th floor, MGR Estates, adjacent to Model House, Punjagutta.
