Better Care for Your Patients and More Time for You
All providers know how demands upon clinicians have increased. A report published in JAMA in 2023 indicated that physician time spent documenting in the EHR–during and outside patient service hours–had increased to over 8.1 hours per eight patient scheduled hours. This acute burden has taken the joy out of practicing medicine for a frightening number of providers, leading to burnout and decreased quality of patient care.
Physicians Angels began attacking this critical problem in 2007 with the industry’s first Virtual Scribe service. Using a specially trained team of English-speaking scribes located in our HIPAA-compliant and secure offices in India, we made it possible for notes to be completed in real-time, allowing doctors to focus on patient care instead of their documentation.
Since then, we’ve become an essential partner to general and specialty clinicians throughout the U.S., helping hundreds improve their patients’ experience and reclaim hours of time every day.

Accurate, Secure and Affordable
Our Virtual Medical Scribes are trained to support U.S. physicians across multiple medical disciplines, so you are matched to an experienced and reliable paraprofessional, no matter what you practice. Via HIPAA Secure VOIP, your scribe documents each patient visit in your EMR, using the same type of credentials as an MA or a Nurse.
You get completed charts in REAL-TIME, without adding another body to the room–at a much less expensive per hour charge than in-person scribe options.
Our affordable virtual scribe solution not only saves time but can also increase the quality of patient care and, in most cases, can increase revenue for the practice and the provider.

Without the overhead of note taking and data entry, providers can focus more intently on their patients’ care and see more overall patients per day.
