Work Schedule: Flexi, Irregular: minimum 20-25hrs/weekly
Work Location: The ability to travel to shifts at all UAB hospitals and facilities is necessary
This position is trained to relieve the provider of clerical duties; thus allowing the provider to focus more directly on clinical care. The Medical Scribe is limited to documentation and efficiency management for the provider. The scribe is an unlicensed person and exclusively non-clinical. The Medical Scribe does not touch patients and does not engage in any type of patient care. The Medical Scribe observes the provider during patient encounters and performs documentation on the provider's behalf. Under the direction of the provider, the scribe enters information into the patient's electronic chart. All documentation is reviewed and/or edited by the provider. It is signed with an attestation by the provider that the scribed chart accurately reflects all work performed by the provider.
While a Medical Scribe does not perform clinical duties, their role is vital to clinical efficiency and they should expect to develop a close working relationship with physician colleagues. A role in this capacity is an excellent stepping stone into a career in health professions
