Brown & Meyers Awarded Contract by County of Orange Health Care Agency in Southern California

Portland, Maine-based firm to provide medical transcription services, with plans to soon open branch office on West Coast

PORTLAND, Maine - Brown & Meyers has been awarded a contract by a Southern California health care agency, further cementing the Portland, Maine-based firm’s reputation as a national provider of transcription, document management and court reporting services.

Brown & Meyers will provide medical transcription services to the County of Orange Health Care Agency, based in Santa Ana, Calif. The Maine company beat out a number of firms competing for a contract with an agency that provides a range of health and social services to a population of more than 3 million in Orange County.

The contract runs for one year with the possibility of renewal for two additional years. Financial terms of the contract were not disclosed.

Brown & Meyers also is planning to open a branch office in Southern California within the next year to meet the increased demand for services in that region of the country, according to Kate Meyers-Coyne, owner and founder of Brown & Meyers.

“From what I’m hearing, Brown & Meyers can compete on a national scale because great service is hard to find,” Meyers-Coyne said. “We are able to provide the highest quality transcription services to our clients by being large enough to provide the required services, yet small enough and flexible enough to meet our clients’ needs in the methods best suited to each and in a cost-effective way. That’s our reputation and it’s getting noticed.”

Meyers-Coyne said her firm utilizes the industry’s leading transcription systems that provide clients with “24/7/365 access” to provide files as well as dictation. The firm also employs more than 80 transcriptionists stretched across the U.S. to ensure quick turnaround times, no matter the deadline.

Brown & Meyers transcribes more than 7 million lines per year for its clients, Meyers-Coyne said, and that number is growing.

In addition to transcriptions, Brown & Meyers’ other services include paper-to-electronic media scanning and imaging, online content and document management, file storage, court reporting, videotaping and other solutions related to recordkeeping and compliance. The firm serves medical groups, legal entities, insurance companies and other organizations in Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and across the nation.

Brown & Meyers, located at 536 Washington Avenue in Portland, was founded in 1994 and has since grown into New England’s leading provider of high quality transcription, document management and court reporting services. The firm has continuously invested in leading-edge technologies and a talented staff to deliver the region’s most responsive service. For more information, visit online at www.BrownMeyers.com.
