Growing up, I always knew that I wanted to work in the medical field. However, I didn’t have a clear idea of what career I wanted to pursue since the medical field offered so many different opportunities.

I have always loved the life sciences and knew that I wanted to use this passion in the service of others. Little did I know that instead of applying to medical schools or physician assistant schools as I had initially thought, my experiences as a scribe would ultimately motivate me to apply for a Ph.D. program in biomedical research instead.

You won't find many medical providers who relish all the charting and note taking that comes with their job. From documenting patient encounters to working through insurance approvals to managing billing, administrative tasks frequently pull providers away from what they want to do most: treat patients. To make matters worse, these associated administrative tasks have grown over the years to the point where providers now spend more than 15 hours per week on paperwork, nine of which are spent on electronic health record documentation alone. ‍So where do providers fit that additional 15 hours of work into an already busy week? They either see fewer patients or finish their paperwork during off hours. Neither solution is ideal. The first option decreases patient healthcare access, while the second worsens the ongoing crisis of overwhelmed American physicians.

After more than ten years of use, medical scribes have proven their value in healthcare settings by reducing provider burnout and improving patient throughput.
