Virtual Medical Scribes:
Enhance Patient's Experience
Healthcare solutions that get your practice
back to being about your patients.
Voice Products and MD Scribes have partnered to provide virtual medical scribes—multi-lingual, foreign-trained, and foreign-licensed medical doctors—to manage all documentation and patient interaction.
This service directly addresses the high rates of physician and nurse burnout driven by excessive Electronic Health Record (EHR) requirements, where doctors can spend two hours on desk tasks for every hour of patient care. Our solution is designed to free your clinical staff from this administrative load, allowing them to focus on patient well-being and improving their workday.
How Our Physician Scribing Experience Can Help You
MD Scribes was founded as a physician and hospital service organization with the mission to help physicians, nurses, and health care administration. We help manage the complexities of the “business of medicine”, while dramatically improving physician and patient experiences.
MD Scribes specializes in recruiting and hiring licensed general medical doctors and training them as virtual medical scribes to assist U.S. based physicians and nurses with EMR documentation to reduce burnout. MD Scribes recently expanded its offering to augment non-clinical virtual staffing to support administration functions including scheduling, insurance verification, and receptionist.
These schools are accredited by the National Committee on Foreign Medical Education and Accreditation (NCFMEA).
Additionally, our virtual medical doctor scribes are multi-lingual and are trained to ask diagnostic questions usually delegated to a nurse or doctor. As as result, they are qualified medical interpreters for compliance under section 1557 of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), assisting your practice or clinic with providing adequate care for foreign language speaking patients.
Virtual Medical Scribes Accreditation
The National Committee on Foreign Medical Education and Accreditation (NCFMEA) is charged with determining whether the standards of accreditation used by foreign country to accredit medical schools, are comparable to standards applied to medical schools in the United States.

Customer Testimonials
"Thank you for connecting me to Dr. Mathline Fortunat, my MD Scribe. She is a very quick study and she was charting well on day 2. It is extremely helpful. It seems to me patient's are very receptive. She opens the charts before I get to the office and then we review patients together. After only two weeks, she is completely prepping charts with few additions from me.
Thank you for letting know about this opportunity. My stress level trying to get the charts done is extremely low now. I started playing the piano again! Thank you again."
Dr. Charles, Godoshian Internal Medicine

The MD Scribes Encounter
How it could work in your practice
Our virtual medical scribe experience in your office can be set up exactly how you want it. First, we customize the workflow to your needs and help you feel confident in the accuracy of your records while also saving time.
These are two examples of what the encounter could look like.
Example 1:
The virtual medical scribe supports the physician's documentation burden.
-
The doctor securely connects to the virtual medical scribe prior to seeing their first patient for the day, while the scribe is ready to document in your EMR.
-
The physician sees his patients and the remote medical scribe passively listens to document the exam diagnoses, session notes, and treatment plan. When the visit concludes the physician doesn't have to document anything in the EMR, just review and sign.
-
Relieving the physician's documentation fatigue and burn-out allows for a minimum of 25% more patients seen in a clinical schedule. Your practice increases revenue while offering patients with more scheduling availabilities.
Example 2:
The virtual scribe supports the patient's in-take process to relieve your current clinical staff.
-
The nurse securely connects to the virtual medical scribe at the beginning of their day.
-
The nurse greets the patient from the lobby to collect and verbalize the vitals to the remote medical scribe connected via a portable device such as a laptop or tablet. The remote medical scribe will document the vitals.
-
Next the patient is escorted to the exam room and is visually introduced to the virtual medical scribe on the portable device. The virtual medical scribe will privately update the medical information, health concerns, etc with the patient.
-
When the physician is ready, the virtual medical scribe provides a brief medical synopsis then documents the physicians notes, lab orders and treatment plans.
-
After the visit concludes the patient is escorted to check out by the nurse. The physician or nurse do not document anything in the EMR, just review and sign.
Doctors spend 27% of their day directly with patients
vs.
49.2% of their day on EHR and other desk work.
