I am prospecting a client and am researching the US medical transcription industry and have found much top level data on industry growth and size, but can't find any data on one fundamental growth component: Doctors and/or hospitals who still keep records manually. I believe from personal experience that this "old fashioned" practice is still quite prevalent, in particular with small medical practices, but have not found any data to support my limited survey. Does any have a source of data on this topic? I have Yahooed and Googled; used some academic library tools like ProQuest, EBSCOhost, and Infotrac; and looked through transcription company websites and annual reports/10Ks. I did find a report/forecast from a major market research group on the medical transcription industry through 2008 for $4500 - this is a bit too steep for me at this time when I don't have a paying client to offset and really only need one small piece of data! I much appreciate your help.
