![]() My guess is that they’re filling the higher ups pockets with more money. Where does the money they’re “saving” by doing this go? I know for sure that the money doesn’t go back to who needs it most, which is the underpaid and undervalued medical scribes. Percentage of candidates during the virtual classroom training and that means that they are losing money during it as well. They are doing this because they are losing a good The only state they can’t implement it in is California because it’s illegal there, but they can somehow do it in all other states because they are classifying it as general scribe training, which you can use for other medical scribe jobs and you can “place” out of the unpaid training. Now for Scribe101, before you even go through the interviewing process, you are going through 15 hours of unpaid training to deem if you are eligible for an interview. If the SA interviewer thinks your availability and typing speed are good to go, you then go through the virtual classroom training which is about 15-25 hours. ![]() So, the way it usually works is that when you apply, you receive an invite for an interview. They’re rolling out something called Scribe101 for people that apply. So I stand by my statement.For all those that are looking to apply, don’t waste your time. OP is being a shit human to the other humans he's working with, and that goes beyond SA or legal contracts. This isn't about SA, this is about someone selfishly getting theirs and peacing out, leaving other human beings to clean up their mess. It comes off as nasty because I have had experience with people just like OP, contentedly blasé with their lack of integrity, screw me over personally and multiple times. Perhaps even moreso than if there were a legal contact binding them to that agreement. Unfortunately, interviewers have nothing but the scribe's word to go off of, so when people lie from the getgo just to get the job and then leave early, yes, it does reflect poorly on their moral character and how well they uphold their professional agreements. This is why interviewers ask for an estimate on how long someone will be able to stick around, so they can ensure their work is not wasted. However, there is a lot of time and resources that are sunk into training new scribes. I don't think people should be penalized for things like that, and at-will contracts are appropriate for a job at this level. Life happens - people move, family gets sick, other opportunities come up, whatever. The at-will contract signed makes him leaving early non-actionable as far as we are concerned legally. One of my flaws is that I hold grudges and I would totally do all of those things to that sort of person. ![]() They might choose not to hire you for a job at their practice. They might reject your residency application. They might think of you as the sort of person that does not honor their professional commitments. These people would remember you as that dickhead that quit early and made their life way harder. If you are fully aware of how inconsiderate it is to quit early, and the internal knowledge that you're a morally inferior human is not enough for you, consider that medicine is a small world and you may encounter some of these people again later on in your career, especially if you plan to practice in a close geographical area. ![]() If you absolutely must leave, tell them ASAP so they have time to rehire and train someone new, a process that in itself can take months. Doctors will also have to work without a scribe if there is not enough coverage, hurting their productivity. It's incredibly frustrating to sink all this effort training a new scribe who won't really be proficient until 3-4 months down the line, and then they quit as soon as they're functional. I'm going to generously assume you're just ignorant rather than a dickhead, but there is a lot of background labor that goes into setting up your role that you don't ever see. It's pretty much only an issue if you would try to get hired by them again or listed an SA employee as a reference.Īlthough I will say, as someone who was a chief scribe, you're screwing over your coworkers and the doctors at your site who will have to pick up the slack once you leave.
