$2,500.00 Sign On Bonus

The purpose of this position is to handle time-consuming clerical responsibilities for physicians during patient encounters. Scribes accompany a physician and directly observe patient encounters. This position accurately documents the events and decision-making in a manner that results in appropriate medical charting. The Medical Scribe also completes clerical activities necessary to assist with processing of physician orders for tests and medications. By accomplishing the time-consuming clerical duties that otherwise would be assigned to a physician, Scribes enable physicians to spend more time with individual patients and increase the overall flow of patients in the department. This role is relevant because physicians are highly trained for direct patient care and any clerical activity is a less efficient use of their health care expertise and efforts.
