  • Scribes document the results of laboratory and radiographic studies as dictated by the physician.
  • Scribes document the correct time of patient care related activities, including physician to physician communication, family communication and re-examination of the patient.

  • All orders for patient care must be communicated by the physician and not the Scribe.
  • Medical knowledge and skills applied to a variety of healthcare departments found at La Maestra.
  • The medical scribe will also take additional training as directed by La Maestra’s Nextgen, Quality and Compliance departments.
  • The medical scribe will report directly to the clinic site manager, department manager or medical director depending on the circumstances.
