Pros

Great opportunity to interact with doctors, patients, and nurses. The position is extremely conducive to the retention of medical terminology and networking with physicians. The job is not very difficult and there is usually time to study.

Cons

Communication is very poor between management and scribes. Most of management are former scribes with little-to-know knowledge of how to run a business. Employee turnover is expensive and could be greatly reduced if the employees developed loyalty. I understand why the pay is low, given the business model, but most scribes have more formal education than everyone they work with (besides the doctors). Self-scheduling was a massive perk when I initially started, as seniority actually had value. Self-scheduling did leave some gaps in the schedule, but that was the whole point of having the site coordinator as a full-time employee.

Medical Scribe more cons than pros.

Pros

Medical/clinical experience. Extremely fast hiring: submission of application to training happened within one weeks time.

Cons

The training was very unorganized, you only had a few days to learn an extremely large amount of information. We were also given a quiz on the first day of classroom training with a very generalized notice of what the focus needed to be. The hiring process is extremely fast but the payment process to register you into the payment system was extremely slow. There is no way for you to look into the system to see when you have clocked in and out or a history of hours worked and they are able to change the times which you have clocked in and out. Scheduling was not as flexible as was stated prior to hire. After being hired we were told to keep our work schedule as permanent as possible and to work your school schedule around work rather than scheduling work around your future semester classes. What you note in your availability sheet will be what you will most likely be working and mostly permanent. You don't have much of a say as to which available days you would prefer to work and there were no options given. They choose your schedule for you by all available days and times noted on said sheet by you, you don't have a choice after that. If you noted you had five available days but hoped to work two and they scheduled you for four shifts according to the sheet; those were the days that you were going to work going forward. Also, working past your scheduled shift happened quite often so if you had any classes after your work shift you will most likely get to class late or not make it to class at all. Even though you mentioned prior to hire that you had class at a certain time which is the reasons why you chose the available times that you did. If you wanted to take time off it had to be notified a month in advance. If you are having issues and you email corporate you will most likely not get a response. If you decide that you no longer want to work there within a contracted time you had to pay a fee to quit. You only get paid minimum wage. Probably another reason why they constantly need recruiting to hire new employees. I suggest finding another way to gain experience in the medical field for pre-med students.

Pros still somehow outweigh Cons

Pros

Incomparable medical experience and observation, gain working medical knowledge, easy to work around classes (8-shift minimum/month) and they take into account your school schedule.

Cons

Low wages for very high expectations (HIPAA, knowing med terms, not getting the doctor sued). After 2 years, being a trainer, and receiving praise from many providers I don't have a raise. Very poor training and recruiting recently. Poor communication from upper mgt (starting from account manager). Being a scribe is not a social job. Also, now you don't pick your own schedule, it is chosen for you based on availability.
