Yes, there is proofreading in transcription. Transcriptionists must be able to identify and correct errors in their own work, as well as the work of others. There are many resources available to help transcriptionists improve their proofreading skills, including online courses and tutorials.

There is no definitive answer to this question since it can vary depending on the transcription service you use. Some companies may offer proofreading services as an additional option while others may not offer this service at all. Ultimately, it is up to you to determine whether or not you need proofreading for your transcriptions. If you are unsure, you can always ask the company directly.
