With the advent of electronic health records (EHR), it is necessary to document all details about patients and their treatment plan. This can add up to a lot of hours of clerical work and record keeping, and it has become important to provide doctors with help in this task. To do so, hospitals started to hire medical scribes who act as partners to the doctors and help complete all documentation so they meet clerical compliance.

A medical scribe is an assistant to the physician who is responsible for documenting patients' family and medical histories, treatments, allergies, lab results and any information dictated to them or relevant to the patient's visit. Because they are knowledgeable about medical terminologies and have some clinical experience, a medical scribe often writes as a doctor would, being sure to check for any errors. In case of any inconsistencies, they inform the doctors, help resolve the issue and even complete records. However, they are not responsible for deciding the patient's treatment or their care.

The scribe records all information electronically, and their work is accessible to doctors who need to check the patient's medical track. Managers, often a nurse or a quality assurance specialist, monitor the work of medical scribes. By recording every event and treatment procedure, scribes allow doctors to concentrate on their patients while taking care of their clerical duties. By performing their work well, a medical scribe helps improve the efficiency of the doctor-patient interaction and ensures the accuracy of important health records.

Many hospitals are now hiring medical scribes remotely from countries like India to connect with the doctors via video or audio calls. Hospitals usually do this through an agency, although some employers may hire directly. These agencies are responsible for ensuring compliance and facilitate the interaction between doctors and scribes. The communication occurs over highly secure lines, as the conversations involve sensitive information about the patient.
