Medical Scribe/Office Assistant

Description:

You’ll work directly alongside the Medical Director during patient visits, documenting the encounter in real time so she can stay focused on the patient rather than the chart. When you’re not scribing, you’ll help keep the front office running — scheduling, phones and check-in.

Responsibilities:

• Scribing: Accompany the Medical Director during patient visits and document the history, exam, assessment and plan in the EHR in real time, under the Medical Director’s direction.
• Chart prep: Review the schedule and prepare charts ahead of each visit — pulling relevant history, prior notes and labs
• Documentation quality: Ensure notes are accurate, complete and signed off promptly; flag any documentation gaps to the Medical Director.
• Orders & follow-up: Enter orders, prescriptions and referrals as directed, and track follow-up items from each visit.
• Office assistant (secondary): Greet patients, manage check-in/check-out and payment collection, answer phones and patient emails, and manage the appointment calendar when not actively scribing.
• Office operations (secondary): Keep the front desk and reception area organized and help manage office supplies as needed.

Qualifications:

• Prior scribing experience strongly preferred (medical assistant or pharmacy technician background also considered)
• Fast, accurate typing/documentation skills — comfortable keeping pace with a live patient visit
• Comfortable with EHR systems and spreadsheets
• Highly detail-oriented, with strong written and verbal communication
• Warm, polished and professional in a small, high-touch practice environment
