Book Description
A comprehensive medical scribe training manual for the medical scribe working in the emergency department. This single volume teaches the essential topics for the medical scribe including HIPAA standards, medical terminology, a detailed description of the sections of the medical note, common emergency medical conditions, and billing as it pertains to the medical note. It is designed as both a stand-alone manual for those seeking to become or use a scribe, but also makes an excellent supplement to other training materials, like the online courses on medicalscribetraining.net. The 4th Edition is building upon the the feedback and experience since the 3rd Edition was published in 2012. It has been reorganized to clearly separate the fundamental from the more advanced topics. It also includes a new chapter titled "The Basics of Emergency Medicine" and a new section on relevant human anatomy for the medical scribe. Throughout this edition we have included several new images to reinforce topics from the text and we hope you enjoy the update! We offer an online training course corresponding to the handbook complete with audiovisual lectures, sample physician-patient interactions, and additional educational material.
