The Clinical Information Manager
|
The medical industry’s growing emphasis on comprehensive medical documentation as a requisite to verifying quality and compensable patient care are obligating medical providers to devote an escalating amount of time to documenting the physician-patient encounter. These heightened documentation requirements coupled with the national expansion of the electronic medical record (EMR) have burdened medical providers with non-clinical clerical duties resulting in significant decreases in productivity. Medical scribe programs have emerged as cost-effective solutions able to exceed current requirements through real-time documentation while augmenting the operational efficiency of medical departments notwithstanding the utilization of EMR.
