What is a Medical Scribe?

A Medical Scribe is a revolutionary concept in modern medicine.  Traditionally, a physician's job has been focusing solely on direct patient contact and care.  However, the advent of the Electronic Health Record (EHR) created an overload of documentation and clerical responsibilities that slows physicians down and pulls them away from actual patient care. To relieve the documentation overload, physicians across the country are turning to Medical Scribe services.

A Medical Scribe is essentially a personal assistant to the physician; performing documentation in the EHR, gathering information for the patient's visit, and partnering with the physician to deliver the pinnacle of efficient patient care.

For someone interested in medicine, whether it is a personal interest, or part of a career goal to become a physician or physician assistant, the chance to become a Medical Scribe is unlike any other opportunity available.  It offers exciting one-on-one collaboration with a physician, and is unprecedented in its level of exposure to real medicine in practice.

A background in Medical Scribing is quickly becoming the standard for pre-medical experience, and is suggested by medical school acceptance committees across the country.  The competition to become a Medical Scribe is intense, and the demand for Medical Scribe services across the country has never been higher.

Roles and Responsibilities of the Medical Scribe

Scribes accompany providers into the exam room and enter information in real time. A scribe’s core responsibility is accurate, detailed, and timely documentation of patient encounters. Scribes don’t make independent decisions or translations when entering information into the HER, except as the provider directs. Scribes help the provider navigate the EHR, locate information, respond to messages as directed, and research information at the provider’s request.

The scribe’s role should be clearly defined and communicated, with documented job descriptions, policies, and procedures. It’s important to have a signed agreement between the provider and the scribe with clear expectations and accountability.

Common Documentation Duties for Medical Scribe

Examples of information entered by a scribe may include, but are not limited to:

• Name of the patient
• Date and time of service
• Name of the provider
• History of the present illness
• Review-of-systems
• Medication lists
• Physical examination, including vital signs
• Lab values and results of imaging studies
• Progress notes
• Continued care plans
• Indication of the involvement of a scribe

The provider is ultimately responsible for the documentation. A provider’s note should indicate:

• Affirmation of the provider’s presence during the encounter
• Verification that the information was reviewed by the provider
• Verification of information accuracy
• Additional information, if indicated
• Authentication of date and time
