When it comes to healthcare, language services must be provided with a knowledge of the complicated nature of communication about medical matters. Because of the importance of medical history and details, emotions, and diversity of care options, patient-provider communication is difficult enough, even without language barriers. We know you want to hire a language services provider with a complete grasp of the healthcare industry. That’s why we’ve taken great care to become experts at healthcare interpreting.

At Metaphrasis, healthcare language services include:

Experts in medical interpreting. All interpreters at Metaphrasis have completed medical interpreter training, which includes the importance of following the standards of practice, what role they should play in patient care, and the importance of HIPAA and confidentiality.

A complete grasp of culture and context. Metaphrasis interpreters are skilled at interpreting not only words, but the meaning behind the words. We have first-hand experience serving the language access needs of patients with limited English proficiency, so we understand your need for reliability, accuracy, and efficiency in every interpretation.

Years of healthcare industry experience. We have been doing medical interpreting since our company’s beginnings. We are aware of the details of Federal regulations such as TITLE VI and the American Disabilities Act (ADA), the standards of the Joint Commission, and the diverse communities you serve.

Experience meeting the language services needs of the healthcare industry. Our team understands that you work within particular constraints and challenges—and we are happy to find cost-effective solutions that work best for you and those you serve.

Helpful staff.

I have to say, this is a very professional place to work with, I am very pleased with how smooth everything is. Very professional. I have other agencies that breach the contract agreement by not posting the assignments for everyone, first come first served, but favoritism is practiced instead. I didn't sensed that with Mataphrasis.Thank you
