Emergency Physicians Professional Association • Forada, MN

246d • $15 - $15

About The Position

Emergency Physicians, PA (EPPA) is a physician owned and operated company with a Medical Scribe Program that includes 18 different locations throughout the Minneapolis-St. Paul Greater Area and St. Cloud, MN. Specialties include emergency medicine, primary care, oncology, dermatology, orthopedics, and more. A Medical Scribe works one-on-one with a physician (MD/DO), physician assistant (PA), or nurse practitioner (NP), accompanying them into each patient encounter. Scribes complete the Electronic Health Record (EHR)/charting in real time enabling providers to spend more time with their patients and increase the overall workflow of the department. An EPPA Scribe types everything that occurs during the patient visit from start to finish; including the patient's medical history, physical exam, patient outcomes, labs, imaging, dictations and more directly into the EHR. In return, Scribes become familiar with the workflow of medicine, medical decision making process, medical terminology, and different provider styles to patient care. *Please note that you will be required to upload a Resume and your Undergraduate Academic Transcript (may be unofficial).* Being a Medical Scribe with EPPA is one of the best stepping stone work experiences prior to a medical or PA school. Medical scribing hours are recognized by all medical schools and most PA schools as paid clinical hours. The EPPA Scribe Program is designed to help you get to the next step in your desired healthcare career path.
