Virtual Medical Scribe Services
A dedicated, remote documentation professional who charts your patient encounters directly into your EMR — in real time or asynchronously — so you can focus on the patient in front of you.
Like an In-Room Scribe, Without the Physical Footprint
A virtual medical scribe gives you everything an in-person scribe does — real-time chart documentation, order entry support, and a complete note ready to sign at the end of each visit — without adding headcount to your exam room or your payroll.
Your Sunrise scribe joins encounters remotely (live audio) or works asynchronously from visit recordings, documenting directly into Epic, Cerner, AthenaHealth, or your preferred EMR. Each scribe is trained in your specialty's terminology and learns your personal charting style, templates, and preferences.
Practices using our virtual scribes report seeing more patients per day, finishing charts before leaving the office, and dramatically less screen time during visits — which patients notice too.

FAQ
Virtual Medical Scribe: Frequently Asked Questions
How does a virtual medical scribe join my patient visits?
Through secure live audio during the encounter, or asynchronously from visit recordings — whichever fits your workflow and patient consent process.
Will I work with the same scribe every day?
Yes. You are matched with a dedicated scribe trained in your specialty who learns your charting style, with trained backup coverage for absences.
How is patient privacy protected?
All audio is encrypted, scribes work under strict confidentiality agreements and annual HIPAA training, EMR access is role-restricted, and we sign a BAA with your practice.
How much time can a virtual scribe actually save?
Providers commonly reclaim one to two hours per day previously spent on charting — our clients report leaving the office on time and seeing additional patients.
