Wiki scribe question

[Miko24]

We have a new NP starting and would like her to scribe for the other NP/PA's in office. Is this possible?

I know they can scribe for an MD which they will also be doing.

NPs can scribe for other mid-level providers. Be sure they are using the scribe attestation as they should be with the MDs.
Documentation of a scribed service must include the following elements:

• The name of the scribe and a legible signature.
• The name of the provider rendering the service.
• The date and time the service was provided.
• The name of the patient for whom the service was provided.
• Authentication of the scribe.
• Here is the link to TJC which answers this very question:

Good luck!
