Who provided guidance in the establishment of the Medical Scribe Program?

• A. Dr. Brian Clare
• B. Courtney Terry
• C. Scribe Trainers
• D. Dr. Scott Syverud

Answer: (A)

Guidance during the creation of a Medical Scribe Program comes from a clinical leader who can shape goals, align the workflow with patient care and documentation standards, and coordinate across departments. Dr. Brian Clare is identified as providing that guidance, bringing the necessary medical perspective and leadership to define how the program should function, what scribes will do, and how they integrate with clinicians’ work. This early, guiding role is what sets up a program for success, whereas administrative staff or trainers typically come in after the foundational structure is in place. Courtney Terry might handle administrative aspects, Scribe Trainers focus on teaching once the program exists, and Dr. Scott Syverud would be a different figure who isn’t described as leading the establishment.
