JOB SUMMARY: The primary goal of a Medical Scribe/Medical Assistant –
Registered (RMA) is to increase the efficiency and the productivity of the
physician or physician assistant they are working for. The Medical
Scribe/RMA allows the provider to focus on what is most important: the
patient. They work to facilitate patient flow and ensure an accurate and
complete medical record for each patient.

Medical Scribes are individuals trained in medical documentation who assist
a physician or physician assistant throughout their shift. Medical Scribes
duties include performing all clerical and information technology functions
for a physician in a clinic setting. This includes primary responsibility
of operation of the electronic health records. You must be able to
anticipate physician needs to facilitate clinic flow. Medical Scribes must
be discreet, tactful, and modest in performance of duties so as not to
distract medical staff from patient care. Good judgment, organizational
ability, initiative, attention to detail, and the ability to be
self-motivated are especially important when working as a Medical Scribe.
You must be adaptable and versatile since you will be responsible for many
tasks. Good attendance is also an important element of this job since you
will be hard to replace.

The Medical Scribe will also be cross trained as a Registered Medical
Assistant (RMA). The clinic will provide training in specific medical tasks
and you will receive an endorsement from the clinic’s healthcare
practitioner. This endorsement will be registered with the Washington State
Department of Health and you will be certified to perform these tasks while
employed at the clinic. Medical Scribes/RMAs are expected to multitask the
two roles on a daily basis.
