Ophthalmology Scribes

Many ophthalmology practices in the country are employing medical scribes and with good reason. Doctors have always had to deal with a substantial amount of documentation as well as clinical procedures and with the adoption of EHR that data entry has become even more burdensome. By taking on EHR work and helping doctors reduce their non-clinical workload, ophthalmology scribes contribute to a more efficient practice allowing doctors to see more patients throughout the day and spend more time with them. The overall patient experience is vital for any practice, especially ophthalmology, and being able to see more patients can only increase a practice’s profitability.
