What is a Medical Scribe?

According to ScribeAmerica, ‘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.’
