Yes—there are medical scribe tools that are designed to handle PHI securely and integrate with EHRs, but the right fit depends on your workflow, specialty, and compliance requirements.

What to look for:

  • HIPAA compliance
  • A signed BAA
  • Encryption in transit and at rest
  • Role-based access controls
  • Audit logs
  • Clear data retention/deletion policies
  • EHR integration via HL7/FHIR, API, or direct write-back
  • Support for your specific EHR

Examples of vendors in this space include:

  • Nuance DAX / DAX Copilot
  • Abridge
  • Suki
  • DeepScribe
  • Nabla
  • Augmedix

Integration notes:

  • Some tools can insert notes directly into major EHRs like Epic and Cerner/Oracle Health.
  • Others may only support copy/paste, inbox routing, or limited API-based integration.
  • “Integrated” can mean very different things, so it’s worth confirming whether the tool can:
    • write the note into the correct chart
    • populate discrete fields
    • route for review/signature
    • avoid duplicate documentation

A few important questions to ask vendors:

  1. Do you sign a BAA?
  2. Is PHI used to train models by default, and can that be disabled?
  3. Where is data stored, and for how long?
  4. How is audio/transcript data protected?
  5. What EHRs do you support, and what level of integration do you offer?
  6. Can clinicians review and edit notes before finalization?
  7. What’s the workflow for consent and patient notification, if needed?

If you tell me:

  • which EHR you use
  • your specialty
  • whether you want ambient listening or dictation
  • and your compliance constraints

…I can help narrow it down to the most suitable options.
