Hi Don here, welcome to the 
Podiatry management minute. 

2
00:00:06,100 --> 00:00:08,500
We're going to talk about scribe
tips today. 

3
00:00:08,500 --> 00:00:12,700
This is episode number 37. 
First of all, in terms of 

4
00:00:12,700 --> 00:00:16,900
scribe, there are a lot of 
different scribes we kind of 

5
00:00:16,900 --> 00:00:19,300
went back and forth on whether 
we needed a describe whether or 

6
00:00:19,300 --> 00:00:21,600
not we could just type faster 
with all of us in the practice. 

7
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,900
We are very tight. 
We are very fast typers. 

8
00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:26,400
We have a lot of nice macros 
that make our job. 

9
00:00:26,400 --> 00:00:30,100
Really, really easy. 
The main reason I chose to use a

10
00:00:30,100 --> 00:00:34,000
scribe or I'm using worker 
Lately is because I wanted to 

11
00:00:34,008 --> 00:00:36,700
focus more at looking at the 
patient and less at looking at 

12
00:00:36,700 --> 00:00:38,300
the computer. 
That was my big struggle. 

13
00:00:38,300 --> 00:00:40,200
I felt like, I was always 
looking at the computer even 

14
00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:41,500
though I'm very faster the 
computer. 

15
00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:44,300
I felt really distracted and I 
wanted to focus more on the 

16
00:00:44,300 --> 00:00:46,400
patient. 
So that's what I'm a kind of a 

17
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,400
month-and-a-half deep into it 
and it's working. 

18
00:00:49,400 --> 00:00:51,600
Well, there's always ups and 
downs. 

19
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,200
But my biggest tip, When 
developing a scribe is being 

20
00:00:55,200 --> 00:00:58,000
patient because it took about a 
whole month, because we have a 

21
00:00:58,008 --> 00:01:00,300
lot of these macros and 
templates and had to teach them 

22
00:01:00,300 --> 00:01:02,700
how to use it. 
And so, Basically we use 

23
00:01:02,700 --> 00:01:06,500
Microsoft teams and then I I was
doing the note in the Scribe was

24
00:01:06,500 --> 00:01:08,500
watching me. 
So there's a lot of other back 

25
00:01:08,700 --> 00:01:10,700
back stuff that my staff took 
care of setting up the 

26
00:01:10,700 --> 00:01:14,200
technology using a phone. 
I use a phone in my pocket, 

27
00:01:14,700 --> 00:01:16,300
that's what they're in, they're 
able to listen and then when I 

28
00:01:16,308 --> 00:01:20,400
talk I tend to talk a little bit
more more Technical and I'll 

29
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:22,800
leave until the the patient that
I have described are always 

30
00:01:22,800 --> 00:01:25,200
getting permission to have a 
scribe in the treatment room. 

31
00:01:25,300 --> 00:01:27,400
There are not able to see the 
system that I have, there are 

32
00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:30,500
other systems that they can see.
But I currently don't have that,

33
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:32,300
that system that they can see. 
It's going on. 

34
00:01:32,300 --> 00:01:34,900
So I tell them verbally, or with
our medical record, they can 

35
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,800
easily take pictures and put 
them in the chart so that scribe

36
00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:39,400
can look at the chart. 
There are few downfalls. 

37
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,200
If you guys are interested in 
more about scribes, let me know 

38
00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:45,100
and I can do more episodes on 
that kind of like the pitfalls 

39
00:01:45,100 --> 00:01:46,900
of it and things like that, but 
it might be something you want 

40
00:01:46,900 --> 00:01:50,300
to consider.
