How Online Medical Scribes and Virtual Medical Scribes + ScribeRyte AI are transforming Healthcare
Today, clinicians report spending up to 50% of their workday on EHRs – and much of that continues at home (“pajama time”)
The result? Rising levels of provider burnout and a decline in patient interaction quality. Thankfully, technology-driven solutions are stepping in. Online medical scribes, live virtual scribes, and AI-powered solutions like ScribeRyte AI from ScribeEMR are here to help providers.
The Surge in Virtual and AI Scribing
The global medical transcription and scribe market was estimated at $2.55 billion in 2024, with service markets over $79 billion, and growing year-over-year.
As healthcare providers prioritize efficiency, these solutions are becoming essential – and ScribeRyte AI Plus is leading the charge.

How Live Virtual Scribing Works
A live virtual medical scribe joins patient visits remotely, handling documentation in real time. Benefits include:
- 2-4 hours saved daily post-visit time
- Zero intrusion into patient sessions – no extra people physically present
- Supports telehealth, crucial as telehealth stays 38× higher than pre-pandemic levels
Live virtual scribing ensures clinicians spend minutes, not hours, handling charts – making it ideal for both in-person and telemedicine care.
