Services & Pricing

Codex Group offers a comprehensive scribe service for hospitals, clinics or individual medical practitioners. If you'd like to start your own in-house scribe program, we offer online education modules for purchase. Additionally, Codex Group offers a consultation service for your in-house scribe program. For pricing and more details about our services, please view the sections below.

Comprehensive Service
The comprehensive service includes a trained scribe accompanying the provider to enter data into the EMR and to act as a professional assistant. Additionally, most of our scribes are notaries and can notarize affidavits and other acknowledgements utilized at your practice. With our comprehensive service, we handle the on-boarding, training, continuing education, compliance, auditing, payroll, benefits and all other employer administrative functions. Your providers get the help they need and we do the rest! Please contact us for a free proposal of services.
The timeline to build and establish an effective scribe team varies per type of practice. For most emergency room practices, it will take 10-12 weeks to establish and train a team. For most clinical practices, such as primary care and ophthalmology, it will take 8-10 weeks to establish and train a team. These timelines do not include the time required to recruit staff, which can take up to four weeks, or any administrative time needed to negotiate a contract for service.
Codex Group collects payments on a monthly billing cycle. Service is an amount billed per hour a scribe is scheduled to work with a provider. The number of hours of coverage per 24-hour period will be set in the service contract. Coverage requested in addition to the contracted amount will be billed at an extra fee. Our rate per hour is dependent on market area and will be disclosed in a requested proposal for service. Any trainees that are working alongside a trainer and the provider will be billed at a reduced rate. Holidays include New Year's Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. Holiday billing starts at midnight the day of the holiday and concludes at midnight the following day (24 hours per holiday). The rate for holidays is typically above the standard rate. All hours that are billed will be for hours that a scribe has worked directly with a physician, as well as any hours that a trainee has worked with a trainer alongside a physician. Administrative time, auditing time, off the floor training and any indirect labor costs will be at the expense of Codex Group.
Education Modules
These modules can be used to train new scribes or educate current scribes for their annual education requirement. These modules are included with our comprehensive scribe service at no additional cost. If you have your own in-house program or are considering making your own program, these modules provide the necessary core education for a scribe team.
The price for all modules is $300 per person per year. Contact us to purchase. Modules may be purchased individually instead of as a complete set. Contact us for individual module pricing.
Consulting Services
With our consultation service, we routinely audit your scribes' performance and provide feedback reports with recommendations for improvement. If you're wanting to start your own program, we can provide recommendations and resources to help establish your new team. This service includes the education modules at no additional cost.
Our standard consulting service is $30,000 billed annually or $3340 billed monthly. Annual billing is by contract for a full calendar year. Monthly billing is by contract month-to-month. This service includes unlimited consultations with our training and quality assurance teams. Pricing is negotiable based on your practice's specific needs. Please contact us for more details and to obtain a free proposal of services.
