Hey so I have two potential job offers to chose from.
As a scribe I'd be working for ScribeAmerica in a private out-patient facility essentially taking notes on behalf of the doctor while shadowing.
As a medical assistant I would prep exam rooms, take patient vitals, injections, input info into EMR and some clerical stuff.
The pay for medical assistant would be better, however I wanted to see what would be best looked upon by adcoms. I understand that as a scribe I would be interacting with the physician more, but as an MA I'd have a lot more direct patient contact.
Any advice?
