I'm wanting a definitive answer on whether its legal for a scribe to document the physical exam if the provider documents an attestation statement?

I agree with Meagan. Scribes should not be documenting. Scribes are effectively "human tape recorders" so the documenting is being done by the provider. I think I just gave away my age with the "tape recorder" reference.
