Interview With Vern Davenport, MedQuist CEO

In August of this year, in conjunction with AHDI's Annual Convention & Expo (ACE) in Phoenix, I had the opportunity to interview MedQuist's new CEO and Chairman of the Board, Vern Davenport. Our conversation touched on a number of issues impacting the medical transcription industry, including the electronic health record, consolidation, technology, and downward pressure on compensation. The video of the interview can be found here:


Please feel free to share your thoughts about the conversation here on the Lounge.
