Latest installments in AHDPG's Specialty Series of Medical Scribe Training Programs

SHREWSBURY, Mass., Jan. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The American Healthcare Documentation Professionals Group, Inc. (AHDPG), the nation's leader in healthcare documentation training, certification, and services the release of its newest offerings – Gastroenterology and Urology for Certified Medical Scribe Professionals

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, employment of medical scribes and medical records and health information technicians is expected to grow 7 percent by 2031. About 14,900 openings are projected each year, on average, over the decade. Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to replace workers who move on to other roles with increased responsibilities within healthcare. For individuals seeking to move into the healthcare industry, the medical scribe role provides a front row access to observe how our healthcare system works firsthand.  

The Gastroenterology for Certified Medical Scribe Professionals (CMSPs) online training program starts from the vantage point that each candidate for this program comes with a fundamental knowledge as a medical scribe. The goal of this course is to increase one's knowledge in the specialty of gastroenterology as it pertains to the scribe role.

CEO Peter Reilly says, "The current turbulence in healthcare driven by the great resignation, COVID-19, and increased regulation is driving a greater need for well-trained individuals to support patient care. Successful healthcare organizations are shifting the administrative and healthcare documentation burden away from Providers to a variety of support roles like medical scribe, clinical medical assistant – scribe, MA scribe or remote/virtual scribe in high-growth areas leading to a significant shortage of qualified candidates."

AHDPG is committed to making online job training and career development programs widely accessible to fill these needs.
