Medical record translation services
The scope of an assignment is fixed in writing before work begins: what is included, what is billed separately, and which details the client must provide so the timeline holds. The written scope names the file formats, the language direction and the delivery type. Scope is defined narrowly here. The written confirmation states the document types covered, the language pair, the intended use and the delivery window; anything beyond it is quoted separately before extra work starts.

02 — Scope and boundaries
The scope for this request is fixed in writing before work begins: the document types covered, the language pair, the intended use and the delivery window. Anything outside that written scope is quoted separately rather than absorbed. Not included in the assignment: adjacent topics outside the stated document types, formats the receiving institution has not confirmed, and work added without a written change to the scope. The next step is to submit the file for evaluation; the written scope follows that submission. Files that fall inside this scope go through the same documented path regardless of where the request was filed.
03 — Typical documents
PDF files arrive as searchable text, scanned images or a mix of both; the scope for the file records which parts need OCR before translation and which are translated directly from the source layer. PDF files arrive as searchable text, scanned images or a mix of both; the scope for this request records which parts need OCR before translation and which are translated directly from the source layer. Work under the delivered document follows the same documented path, with the terminology base built for that sector before the first file is opened.

Terminology decisions for the delivered document are listed in the control note together with the alternatives considered, so a later document in the same series starts from settled choices rather than reopening them. Format specifications for this request — page size, orientation, embedded fonts and file naming — are recorded in the same control note as the terminology decisions. The independent review round for the delivered document is performed by a person other than the assigned translator, and the control note names the checks performed rather than asserting that a review happened. Work under the assignment follows the same documented path, with the terminology base built for that sector before the first file is opened.

05 — How the process works
Submission with confirmation of receipt. Intake confirms what arrived.
Written scope fixing formats, deadline and price factors. The scope fixes the terms.
An assigned translator writes, and a second person reviews the work. The translation passes an independent review.
Delivery includes a control note that documents every terminology decision. Delivery ships with a control note.
06 — Medical record translation services
What we deliver: Medical record translation services with a documented process: written scope, independent review and a control note with every delivery.
What stays excluded: The scope is confirmed in writing before work begins; changes are made only after written confirmation. Terminology decisions are listed in the control note with the alternatives considered.
Who decides acceptance: No acceptance is promised. The scope records the intended use, and the receiving institution's requirements govern the format.
Submit file for evaluation07 — What we do not promise
Where a certified or sworn form is required for medical record translation services, the scope names the form requested and the client confirms acceptance before work begins; no acceptance is promised in advance. What is not promised for this request matters as much as what is: no guarantee that a specific authority accepts a given format, and no notarial or consular step performed by the translation team unless it is named in the scope.
08 — Delivery and files
Expedited work on the file compresses the calendar but not the steps: the review round stays independent and the control note still records every terminology decision made under the shorter window. Paper output for this request is produced only where a receiving body requires an original; the request is stated in the scope and the posted copy travels by tracked service with the reference recorded. Delivery of the delivered document defaults to an encrypted link with the control note attached; where an original must move physically, tracked post is used and the tracking reference is written into the same record.
09 — What drives the price
Layout complexity for the file covers tables, callouts, repeated headers and non-text elements; where the layout is rebuilt rather than simply filled, that effort appears on the quote. The delivery window is a priced factor for this request; an expedited window changes the sequence of work and is quoted as such, not absorbed silently. Repetition inside the delivered document is reported to the client before ordering; the quote shows how repeated segments are treated so the number is not a surprise.
10 — Start your request
Delivery of the file defaults to an encrypted link with the control note attached; where an original must move physically, tracked post is used and the tracking reference is written into the same record. Open points are not closed by assumption: anything unresolved about this request at handover is listed explicitly so the client-side review starts from a known list.
Submit file for evaluationFrequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost?
The cost is calculated from four factors stated in the written quote: volume, layout complexity, repetition and delivery window. Nothing is added after the quote without written confirmation.
How long does delivery take?
The scope sets the deadline before work begins; standard and expedited delivery windows are confirmed in writing.
Who performs the work?
Translation and review are separate roles by design; the control note documents the verification.
Which institutions accept the result?
The receiving institution determines acceptance; the written scope documents the intended use for verification.
How does the process work step by step?
File submission is followed by a written scope, translation with independent review, and tracked delivery with a control note.
