It’s estimated by the US Census Bureau that over 20% of the population can’t speak advanced English in medical situations. Either mandated by US laws or driven by the motive to improve patient satisfaction, healthcare service providers are required to provide medical interpretation services to patients with limited English proficiency and people with hearing impairments or loss.
Medical interpreters accurately translate critical medical advice and information provided by doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals into the patient’s native language. They also translate the patient’s informed consent, as well as questions and concerns about the diagnosis and treatment plans back to doctors and the healthcare team. Working as a bridge in multilingual medical situations, medical interpreters ensure that there is effective communication and positive interaction between patients and healthcare providers in medical facilities.
Medical interpreting services are an essential part of patient care to ensure all patients have meaningful access to all healthcare information. Language barriers in critical medical situations often cause poor communication and medical errors, such as overtreatment or undertreatment.
With the help of professional medical interpretation services, patients can obtain a clear understanding of treatment options and informed consent.

The Covid-19 pandemic has significantly changed how patients and healthcare providers meet. Therefore conducting online meetings with patients has become widely used by hospitals, medical clinic, nursing homes and other healthcare organizations in 2022.
Medical interpretation conducted through Zoom and other online video conferencing platforms is similar to direct video interpretation. The only difference is that in Zoom interpretation, the host of the meeting can designate an interpreter to the patients who need interpretation help through activating the Zoom Interpretation feature. After the interpreter logs in, the patients can then tune into a dedicated interpretation audio channel in their native language, while keeping the main channel at a lower level. Using video conferencing platforms like Zoom for medical interpretation is convenient, cost-effective and efficient.

There is a clear difference between medical translators and medical interpreters, although both work to provide effective multilingual communication and improve patient care and satisfaction in hospitals and many people still use these two terms mistakenly.
Medical translators work with written documents, such as translating informed consent forms, notices of right or intake forms and any other letters or notices in written form. On the other hand, medical interpreters provide spoken or oral language services in healthcare facilities to ensure meaningful communication between patients and healthcare providers, such as doctors, physicians and nurses.
As an essential part of the healthcare team, medical interpreters are playing a key role in assisting persons with limited English proficiency or with hearing problems to have effective access to healthcare information. Language barriers in multilingual medical situations often cause poor communication and medical errors, such as overtreatment, undertreatment, and sometimes even deaths.
With the help of professional medical interpreters, patients can obtain a clear understanding of their treatment options and informed consent.
