Why HelpSquad for medical scribing

Give your clinicians back their evenings. We own the chart.

Four reasons practices bring on a HelpSquad scribe team instead of freelancers or AI-only transcription.

01

Real humans. Not just transcription.

Our scribes understand the visit - not just the audio. They capture differential diagnoses, relevant history, and plan-of-care specifics the way your EHR template expects them.

02

Real-time or async.

Live scribing during the visit for clinicians who want hands-free charting. Asynchronous for clinicians who prefer to pace. Your call.

03

Specialty-trained.

Primary care, cardiology, orthopedic, behavioral health, dental - each specialty has its own templating conventions. Scribes are drilled on yours.

04

HIPAA, end to end.

BAA at the company level. Secure virtual desktop for every EHR session. No copy / paste / download of PHI. Audit-ready.

How we show up

Six lanes of medical scribing.

Start with one lane; we expand as the engagement earns its keep.

01

Real-time encounter scribing.

Scribe listens during the visit (on a dedicated line or in-room via connected device) and enters notes into your EHR as the visit unfolds. Clinician reviews, edits, and signs before patient leaves.

02

Asynchronous charting.

Clinician records dictation or the visit audio. Scribe transcribes and enters into the EHR within your SLA - typically same-day or next-day. Clinician reviews and signs.

03

Specialty templates.

H&P, SOAP, discharge summaries, procedure notes, PE / ROS templates - all tuned to your specialty. We document your preferred structure at onboarding.

04

Chart closure & billing prep.

Notes prepared with the specificity billing needs. CPT / ICD-10 codes suggested where appropriate, flagged for clinician review.

05

Physician-order tracking.

Scribe routes orders to the lab or specialist as they come up in the visit, with the patient still present to answer questions.

06

Chart cleanup & backfill.

Old charts that need attention - missing signatures, incomplete notes, open encounters. Scribe team closes the loops so compliance stays clean.

Frequently asked

Answers before you ask.

Are your scribes AI or human?
Humans. AI tools are fast but regularly miss clinical nuance and produce notes that fail audit. Our scribes are HIPAA-trained, specialty-trained, and QA-managed by a US team.
Real-time or asynchronous - which is better?
Both work. Real-time is best when the clinician wants to stay fully hands-off the chart during the visit. Async is best for clinicians who prefer to review and dictate in their own rhythm. Most practices mix.
Which specialties do you cover?
Primary care, cardiology, orthopedic, ENT, urology, GI, endocrinology, rheumatology, behavioral health, dental, and more. Specialty-specific templates documented during onboarding.
Which EHRs do you support?
Epic, Cerner, Athena, eClinicalWorks, NextGen, Allscripts, ModMed, DrChrono, SimplePractice, TherapyNotes, Dentrix, Eaglesoft, Open Dental, and others.
How much does medical scribing cost?
$11-12/hour for scribe roles. Less than a W-2 in-house scribe with none of the HR, PTO, or turnover cost. See full pricing →
How quickly can you go live?
About two weeks for an initial scribe. Specialty onboarding includes template review, encounter shadowing, and a QA pass on the first 10 notes.
Are your scribes HIPAA-trained?
Yes. BAA at the company level. Secure virtual desktop for every EHR session. No copy / paste / download of PHI. Continuous training and audited access.
