Job Summary

As a medical scribe, you will be responsible for accompanying medical providers into the exam room and accurately documenting the patient-provider encounter. This is an in-person scribe position.

Responsibilities and Duties

The scribe observes the physician during patient encounters and performs documentation on the physician’s behalf. Under the direction of the physician, they enter information into the patient’s electronic or written chart. All documentation is reviewed and edited by the physician. It is signed with an attestation by the provider that the scribed chart accurately reflects all work, treatment, procedures, and medical decision-making performed by them.

Scribes function as the physician’s personal secretary and require access to electronic databases that are similar to the access granted to the physicians themselves. Within the framework of an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) system, the scribe needs the functionality to find old records and results. At the physician’s request, the scribe must be able to locate past medical records, prior lab/radiology results, or past visit histories for the physician to review. Additionally, within the EMR itself, the scribe needs the ability to enter data into the chart on the physician’s behalf. All scribe-entered data is reviewed and authenticated by the physician

Must be able to type a minimum of 55 wpm. This is a very fast-paced environment, so you must be able to keep up while remaining accurate.
