Thanks for all the information, especially the discussion about the overlap between medical scribes and medical assistants! I didn't know they were basically under the same legal categorization, though their training is obviously different. Excited to learn more about scribing through the course!

Thank you so much for this video! I am so glad that you started off this class with a thorough explanation of what medical scribes do and their place in the field. I am hoping my background as a Medical Assistant can help me with this scribe training and advance my career!

Thank you very much for the video! I was surprised to learn that medical scribe training is not regulated, and that seems like it would make things more difficult. It was great to hear a thorough explanation of the medical scribe position unlike some of the online websites that I have read.

Thank you for making this video! I was confused for a long time as to how medical scribes are considered non-clinical personnel but the hours can count towards your clinical hours.
