Anyone work with a good remote scribe? Companies like staffingfordoctors? Use ECW for reference. would like to have help prepping charts, ensuring appropriate hpi template/exam and appropriate medical necessity jargon is in the note for procedure approval.
 
At this point, I think AI scribes are the way to go and human scribes will end up being replaced entirely.

You can create your own templates with specific paragraphs to add for a specific diagnosis or procedure. Most of them also have integration with ECW.

Pay for an AI Scribe, don't need human scribes anymore (whether remote or in person). Our health system has adopted an AI Scribe, it is insane how great it is. It is much better than a human already and it will only get better

Some limitations: formatting notes and setting it up, not as good as human scribes currently who do that well. But the actual capturing of the HPI, Physical Exam, A/P during the conversation - it's as good as a human scribe

Additional Benefits: don't have to constantly train a human scribe as they leave for medical school, etc

As much as I loved my human scribes (I used Scribe America for about 5 years), I have to agree that the AI scribes are a better option currently. I get the same amount of efficiency and I pay $89 per month vs $14 per hour. My last human scribe was a wonderful person and was bilingual (which was a plus) but I cant justify the expense.

And yes after 18 to 24 months or so, these scribes go to med school.
 
How are you getting around the nuances of the specificity of the note required by payors? I.e. patient in conversation may be saying pain is in back going into buttock but stopping there. if you think the issue is really facet related and the AI generated note states pain radiated from back to buttock, some payors will auto deny especially as payors increasingly use AI to review notes and make decisions.

I find these nuances to be the biggest hang up of AI scribes that generate a note just from listening to the conversation

You can program to insert medical necessity blurbs you can auto create.
You do have to read your notes before submission but will find you’re happy with it for most part


Changing to AI dictation was best thing I ever did with regards to notes.

I can’t way until the same rationale replaces realtors and lawyers

Agreed...you obviously read the scribe notes

I am definitely more efficient with my time.

In the future AI won't replace physicians but physicians who use AI will likely replace those that dont
 
Freed.ai (and probably others) automatically translate patient's conversations.

Most do but there are still errors from time to time. For the most part it is very reliable. I use AI scribe.
