• Directed by a provider
CDI
Variations:
• States
• Payers
• Who may have a scribe
• Scribe Signature
Provider is responsible for the note
Any action falling outside the definition of
“human transcriptionist” is not scribing.
“The scribe is functioning as a ‘living
recorder,’ documenting in real time … This
individual should not act independently, and
there is no payment for this activity.”

What Scribes cannot do
17
HPI W/O Scribe
HPI: CP for 3 days now worse.
With Scribe
CC: Chest pain
HPI: 62 yo wm with severe crushing chest pain off/on for three
days. The longest episode was 30 seconds.
It occurs when he walks up the hill to his barn and then seems to
resolve at the top when he rests. Yesterday he had to stop half
way up the hill due to the pain.
MDM W/O Scribe
MDM: 1. CP worse. Plan LHC.
18
MDM With Scribe
MDM: 1. Unstable Angina. The history is very c/w unstable angina
or pre infarct angina. I do not want to risk an ischemic event
during non invasive testing nor due to a delay in testing. We will
admit him to the hospital today, start antiplatelet agents and beta
blockers and plan for a LHC this afternoon.
