If you need to order a translation of medical documents, we recommend contacting our company’s professionals. Alphabet employs translators from/into 70+ languages. In all cases, we are talking about native speakers with extensive experience, thanks to which we solve additional tasks for clients, for example, compliance with deadlines and rules of official procedures. Due to the excellent organization of business processes, in particular, the work of the entire organizational part online, our employees complete a medical translation of up to 10 pages in 24 hours. Moreover, we often execute the orders in less than a day, if the customer requires such urgency.
Medical document translation services are necessary for both individuals and businesses, public and government organizations in three main groups of situations. The first two of them are the arrival of a citizen of another country for treatment in the United States or, conversely, the trip of an American citizen to another country for treatment. In this case, it becomes necessary to translate certificates and diagnoses, examination results (analyses), treatment plans, medical records, informed consent forms, and so on into the language of the receiving country. The responsible work of the translator in this case has a direct impact on improving health, as it will ensure accurate communication with new attending physicians.
The third group of situations conditionally includes issues of immigration and international cooperation with government, regulatory, scientific, and other authorities. For example, individuals may need a medical translation of documents on their health status and vaccination when obtaining a residence permit or citizenship. In the professional, scientific, and corporate environment, the range of tasks to be solved is wide and diverse. In particular, to present their achievements, discoveries, registration of drugs and treatment methods in another country, translation of such medical documents as the results of clinical trials, articles, and reports, user instructions and documentation of exported medical devices may be required.
First of all, it is important to provide effective care to patients. Even the slightest mistake in unprofessional translation will lead to the fact that the language barrier will not be completely overcome and, for example, some aspects of the previous course of treatment will be unclear to new doctors. And this can negatively affect the patient’s health, and slow down the progress of treatment. Therefore, it is important to entrust medical translation to professionals from Alphabet who are native speakers and have the appropriate specialization. Thanks to this, the translation will be fully understood in all details by the doctor of the receiving party. This will allow you to make a more accurate diagnosis, help the patient faster, or, for example, help avoid invasive treatment.
The most important aspect of medical document translation services is compliance with confidentiality requirements. All Alphabet employees have signed an NDA and strictly follow the rules for working with materials provided by customers.
In many cases, a medical translation is ordered when submitting documents to the state and other official bodies, which have established many rules and regulations of procedure. That is, it is necessary to comply with certain deadlines, prepare documents accordingly, and perform other formalities. In such cases, a certified medical translation is often required, and notarization is also provided for by several rules. Alphabet specialists will help clarify which option is needed in a particular case, and as part of a comprehensive service, they will provide translated documentation that fully complies with the established procedure. That is, our clients do not have to look for a notary or the necessary form on their own. Everything is extremely simple – within a day, a courier or postal service will deliver documents that are completely ready to be submitted to official authorities. That’s why our clients say that Alphabet is a certified medical translation right at my side. Our customers receive everything they need very quickly and without leaving their homes or offices!
