Hospitalist Scribes
One of the most recent frontiers for medical scribes is with the hospitalist. Although relatively new, it is our opinion that all major hospitalist programs will have scribes in the next 5-10 years, dramatically improving the quality of documentation, MD time spent with patients, and increased volume of patients per physician.
Hospitalist scribe services are highly specialized and certainly not all medical scribes and medical scribe companies are capable of providing hospitalist scribe services.
MedicalScribeInformation.com recommends Clinical Scribes LLC for hospitalist scribe services. They are able to provide services anywhere in the country and have made hospitalist coverage their primary focus with mutiple publications on this specific niche. Our view on the major benefits of using this hospitalist scribe company versus other, non-specific companies: 1) they provide an MD (their medical director) on site for training and institution of the program. 2) They provide a comprehensive review of templates and the EMR used for each individual hospitalist and group. 3) They have an extensive battery of hospitalist-specific templates and are familiar with hospital flow and procedures.
4) Multiple advisors for this company are hospitalists themselves. 5) They focus on provided increased billing through increasing CMI and diagnosis capture and by decreasing length of stay. 6) They have experience navigating funding agreements between hospitalist groups and their respective hospitals.
