Every note the scribe produces is a draft until your provider reviews and signs it. That line never moves.

The AI Scribe Question, Answered Honestly
Every buyer on this page is asking some version of it: why hire a scribe when software listens now? The honest answer is that AI moved the work, it didn't remove it. Ambient tools produce a draft; someone still verifies it against what happened in the room, catches what the model misheard, files it into the right fields and gets the chart closed. Documentation is generated in seconds and finished by a person.
Our scribes work AI-equipped: where your practice runs ambient tools, the scribe reviews and completes those drafts; where it doesn't, the scribe charts directly. Either way the after-hours charting burden, measured by an Annals of Family Medicine study covered by the AMA at about 1.4 hours a night for family physicians, moves off your providers.
And documentation is only where the note starts. It doesn't verify insurance, chase an authorization or work a denial; when the note exposes those gaps, the wider desk matters. That is the operational layer myMedCrew staffs beyond the scribe seat.
What a Virtual Scribe Handles
The scribe documents. Your provider reviews, amends and signs every note, and every clinical decision stays where it always was.
Where Scribe Seats Fit Best
Telehealth practices run the natural version of this: the scribe joins the visit stream and charts in real time while the clinician stays on the patient; our digital health and telehealth page covers that staffing picture. High-volume outpatient settings like PT and rehab are the other strong fit, where visit cadence is fast and documentation debt compounds daily.
If your documentation problem is dictation and backlog rather than live visits, that's a different seat: see medical transcription services.
Proof
What a Scribe Seat Costs
A scribe seat bills hourly against our published rate card, not per visit or per provider tier. Sourcing and vetting are not billed. No retainer, no search fee. Billing begins when the resource begins.
Getting a Seat Filled
HIPAA-Aligned Infrastructure
Every placement works on HIPAA-aligned infrastructure defined by four controls: MFA, encryption in transit and at rest, role-based access, and audit logging. Scribe access is scoped to documentation, under logins you control.
Frequently asked questions
Is AI replacing medical scribes?+
AI changed the scribe's work rather than ending it. Ambient tools draft notes fast, and the draft still needs verification against the visit, correction and completion before a provider can sign it. Practices now staff scribes to run AI-equipped: the tool does the first pass, the person finishes the chart.
What does a virtual medical scribe actually do?+
A virtual scribe documents visits in your EHR, live or from recordings: history, exam findings, assessment and plan in your templates, plus pended orders and follow-ups for provider sign-off. The provider reviews and signs every note.
How much does a virtual scribe cost?+
Scribe seats bill hourly against our published rates rather than per visit. Sourcing and vetting are not billed: there is no retainer and no search fee, and billing begins when the resource begins.
Does the scribe work live or from recordings?+
Both workflows exist; which one fits depends on your visit flow and specialty. The scope call settles it before candidates are screened.
Can the scribe work in our EHR?+
Seats are placed into the EHR your practice already runs, under role-based access you control. There is no platform migration.
Who signs the note?+
Your provider, always. Everything the scribe produces is a draft until the provider reviews, amends where needed, and signs.
Your providers went to school to practice medicine, not to close charts at midnight.
