I got the same email and then I got an email yesterday saying my stuff was being reviewed lol

And while you think scribes are picking up bad habits, just to play devils advocate, the number of times I have had to awkwardly ask providers in the hospitalist group about systems they didn't check which pertain to the chief complaint... Just saying. Patients with bilateral LE cellulitis that the provider didn't look under the blankets to assess... Patients in arrhythmia, yet the heart wasn't checked... Hypoxia and no auscultation of the lungs... I've also had providers tell me scribes help make them more thorough. So don't just only bag on scribes.

I find this odd. I mean we are trained about what sort of ROS/exam, etc is needed for certain levels of charts - and we are told they are things the provider should be doing but we are also told not to put anything in the chart that the provider didn't do... So I'm not sure why your scribes are... Sounds more like a management/training problem. I would take it up with your higher ups but I wouldn't necessarily blame the scribes who are making near minimum wage to do something they're told. I agree with you that it is unethical and our supervisor before this current one really did pressure us to have at least 10 ROS, 2 exam findings per system, etc or get audited. ALSO UPDATE: I've gotten into 4 different schools with scribe work so thanks everyone for the responses.

Quick poll: loan repayment time

This is terrifying. -
Hey there, sorry if this is something that has been overdone, but I've canvased the internet looking for what a day in the life of the military PA looks like and I can't find anything. I was wondering if I could get a synopsis of what it would be like for someone after they graduate from a PA program to join and work in the military, whatever branch that may be. Working hours? Location? Where do you live? What are your responsibilities outside of seeing patients? Pay? Benefits? Pros? Cons? Thanks
