Responsibilities and Duties of Scribes at Premier Scribes

Being a medical scribe is very challenging, yet rewarding. You are responsible for the medical record and assisting the provider throughout their workday. Becoming a Premier Scribe requires an individual be highly motivated, driven, well-organized and passionate about the field of medicine. We have a rigorous training program which will ensure your success. The skills that you will learn both in the training program and while working will serve you well once you start the next phase of your journey. Scribe duties include documenting patient history, physical exam, lab results and pertinent details of patient visits in the electronic medical record (EMR). Scribes also assist with patient flow, helping the provider stay organized. Providing care to patients is a complex process and a scribe is an integral part of the provider’s success.

Our training program includes medical terminology, HIPPA training and one-on-one coaching to make you the best scribe possible. After training is complete, we expect a mastery of department flow, medical terminology, documentation, departmental policies and HIPAA. We also provide ongoing education for scribes, with both clinically relevant topics and compliance and documentation lessons.

No healthcare experience is necessary, but an interest in clinical patient care and healthcare technology is a plus.

Testimonials

Working with Premier Scribes was an amazing way to prepare for medical school. I’m confident in my abilities to perform clinically thanks to my experience as a scribe. It’s also given me the opportunity to develop strong relationships with dozens of physicians, many of whom have gone out of their way to help me as I progress in my career.

Prisha Patel, University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Medicine

Premier Scribes was a great way for me to get clinical experience during my gap year. I learned so much from working closely with our doctors, who were always open to teaching me. Working as a scribe also gave me the confidence to thrive in the clinical rotations that make up so much of medical school.

Jack Shapiro, Vanderbilt University School of Medicine

Working at Premier Scribes was one of the most positive experiences I had leading up to medical school. I learned so much during my year with Premier, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. I went on to work for another scribing company once I moved away, and Premier Scribes was superior in literally every way.

Marcie Bulla, University of Tennessee Health Science Center College of Medicine

During my 4 years with Premier Scribes, I not only learned how amazing the healthcare profession is, but I also acquired a great deal of knowledge that has prepared me to be a successful and well rounded provider in the future. I recently completed my first year of PA school with flying colors, and I have to attribute this to the incredible experience I had as a medical scribe.
