DMC Office Services provides call-in / phone-in dictation and transcription for clients.

What is Phone-In Dictation and Why Use It?
If you're a professional who works out in the field or from the office, you can use your cell phone or any touchtone telephone to call our telephone dictation service to record your notes, reports, and letters. Your completed material can be sent out directly, returned to you, E-mailed, or written to diskette or CD-ROM.

You save time by making a telephone call and letting us transcribe your work. There's no need to purchase and fumble with tapes, batteries, or malfunctioning recorders. Phone-in dictation is secure, simple to use (just like an answering machine) and has hours and hours of talk time available.

Call or create an account prior to using the phone-in dictation service for the first time.

Dictating letters and reports, for example, are ideal for this type of service.

Determining Rates for Transcribing Your Recordings
Using the phone-in dictation service is free (there's even a toll free phone number). The rates to transcribe from this services are the same as our transcription service. As an example, a one hour recording, which is clear will generally require about 4 hours to complete. This includes playing back the entire interview and proofreading it before returning the completed transcript to you. Multiplied by $15 per hour, a one hour recording runs approximately $60 to transcribe.

Quality of the recording impacts the amount of time it takes to transcribe an interview. Quality is impacted by background noise and for group interviews, people talking over each other.

For transcription or dictation rates, you can get a quick estimate.
