Updated/revised merge proposal

edit

In revisions 510486390 and 510486491, @Smalljim proposed merging Medical scribe and Scribe (ER). I am updating the proposal to specify Medical scribe as the target page. I will change the article header templates accordingly. —Shelley V. Adamsblame

Is the work of an emergency room scribe different from a general medical scribe? If so, that distinction or nuance should not be lost in any final article. MaynardClark (talk) 21:41, 23 March 2015 (UTC)Reply

Company Additions

edit

With the medical scribe growing so much as a job across America, I would like to add the major companies that are prevalent in the American medical community right now. I think this would give a much better idea of how the medical scribe position plays into healthcare today.

Let me know what you guys think. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Youngjaekim1101 (talkcontribs) 05:58, 29 October 2015 (UTC)Reply

"A medical scribe is a person, or paraprofessional,"... A person OR paraprofessional? Is that an exclusive or? If a paraprofessional is not a person, what is it? Max Headroom?47.33.89.111 (talk) 03:50, 19 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

"All over the world" ???

Isn't this job title US specific?

I don't work in healthcare, and I read this article because Dr. Glaucomflecken's YouTube sketches, made me curious as to what a "scribe" is. [In the sketches, the Ortho Scribe Jonathan, have almost superhuman abilities.]

From me searching the 'net, it seem to be relatively new US job title, with a similar, but not identical, role, and similar, but not identical, responsibilities, as other kinds of healthcare assistants in other parts of the world. E.g. here in Sweden we have, since 1919, the job title "läkarsekreterare". A job that requires that you undertake a two years university course, and seem, to me, to be an extended version, in responsibilities and abilities, of the US Medical Scribe. "Läkarsekreterare", synonymous with "medicinsk sekreterare", is in literal translation Medical Secretary in English, but is a different kind of beast from a Medical Secretaries in US, although a "läkarsekreterare" might fulfill some of the same obligations (e.g. taking dictation, from a doctor, to write it down in patient journals) as a Medical Secretary in US, most of the obligations of a US Medical Secretary are, in Sweden, usually fulfilled by a lowly receptionist, or desk clerk, in cooperation with a triage nurse/doctor.

I would like if someone added, to this article, what similarities and differences between what a US Medical Scribe do, and what other similar job titles, around the world, do.

I also wonder what schools, "all over the world", have added this US job title, to their curriculum, since the job only seem to exist in US Healthcare. Is this a case of the person writing the article, confusing USA with the whole World? 188.148.211.226 (talk) 07:39, 15 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
