A new medical industry is emerging in India
Doctors in the United States are required to use computers during patient visits. This takes them away from patient care. In this new process, Google technology enables a second person to experience what the doctor sees and hears in another country and become the doctor’s real-time assistant.
What is Scribing
Scribes act as personal assistants to physicians and help them to deliver the best patient care possible.

Medical transcription vs medical scribing
Medical transcription
Transcriptionists convert audio recordings into text format. These tasks are incentivized by high volume and high text accuracy.
Medical scribing
Scribes are part of the clinician's care team. They are in constant contact with the clinician and can see and hear everything that the clinician experiences over the course of a day. Scribes are integral in capturing the narrative of every patient visit.
