AI-Powered Medical Scribing That Elevates Patient Outcomes

Find quick answers to frequently asked questions about SharpScribe’s virtual scribing services, ensuring you get the information you need effortlessly.

A medical scribe is a trained professional that gathers data during patient visits and documents it in the EMR. They are becoming increasingly popular because their assistance greatly increases physician efficiency and patient throughput. This empowers doctors to provide cost-effective, quality medical care without compromising the doctor-patient relationship.

We work with all EHRs.

Medical scribes can “pend” and attach diagnosis codes to each encounter. The physician will always dictate which CPT code(s) and diagnoses to attach. Each scribe is trained on the proper protocol for each individual physician. Every note is still reviewed by the physician prior to submission or finalizing for billing.

Scribes can “pend” orders for physicians to accept and execute. SharpScribe enables clients to decide whether they would like their scribes to pend orders.

No—scribes are not required to be certified or licensed by a third-party licensing organization. The Joint Commission and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) do, however, offer guidelines outlining proper use of scribes. Our curriculum covers HIPAA compliance and knowledge of the appropriate medical terminology necessary to thoroughly document patient visits.

Scribes do not engage in any form of direct patient care. Typically, scribes are trained to document SOAP notes, retrieve medicals records and perform other helpful clerical tasks.

SharpScribe assigns two scribes per provider—a primary scribe, plus a backup. This ensures the healthcare provider is always covered.

Our Number 1 priority is to ensure all of our scribes are well versed on HIPAA Laws and the standards set forth by the HITECH Act of 2009.

SharpScribe provides service for providers in more than a dozen states.
