if its a work at home job that means it can be outsourced.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79483559


This 100%. Transcription (medical) was outsourced then offshored years ago followed by legal transcription (insurance claims, witness statements, etc.) and now coding (medical) is outsourced and offshored. All of these jobs were those I did at home. So, yeah, work at home jobs can absolutely be outsourced, and are.

Gonna have to second this one. I was a radiology transcriptionist for many years. My hospital sold the whole department to a national company that outsources to India. The reports became unreadable, contradictory, and inaccurate. Fortunately, the radiologists who contracted to the hospital hired me on the spot and I spent the last ten years working at home as a valued employee of a small local company. I'm retired now, thank God.

Twenty years ago, you could make a damn good living transcribing at home. Now it's not only a dying profession, but it pays peanuts. Peanuts cost too much, though, so most places are going to voice recognition, which is far less accurate than Indian transcriptionists.
