Sound Familiar?
You didn't go to medical school
to become a data entry clerk
9 in 10 physicians report documentation as their #1 source of burnout. Yet here you are — spending 2+ hours every night typing notes instead of being home with your family.
Charting until midnight
The average ophthalmologist loses 90+ minutes per day to documentation after clinic. That's 400+ hours per year stolen from your life.
Burnout is accelerating
Administrative burden is the #1 driver of physician burnout. You're not alone — but you don't have to accept it as normal.
Revenue left on the table
Every hour spent charting is an hour you could be seeing patients. At $200/visit, that's $400–$600 per day in unrealized revenue.
Patients feel the difference
When you're typing instead of looking at your patient, they notice. Eye contact builds trust. Documentation breaks it.
Incomplete charts = liability
Rushed documentation leads to missing diagnoses, coding errors, and audit risk. A scribe doesn't just save time — it protects you.
Your competitors are adapting
Practices using scribes see more patients, earn more, and retain physicians longer. The gap is widening every month.
There is a solution. And it costs less than one patient visit per day.
How We Train
Every scribe goes through our Tacit Residency
Unlike generic scribe services, every Tacit scribe completes a specialty-specific mini-residency before their first day with you. They train on ophthalmic terminology, ICD-10 coding, your EMR workflow, and the specific visit types your practice sees most — then they're hand-trained specifically for you, not reassigned from another specialty.
Proactive, English-fluent, and experienced in medical settings
Licensed nurses, pharmacists, and allied health professionals
Each scribe is onboarded to your exact workflow, preferences, and EMR

Why Tacit
How we compare to other scribe services
Generalist scribes and AI transcribers weren't built for eye care.
Our Origin
Built by a physician,
for physicians
Tacit Scribes wasn't built by a business consultant or a staffing agency. It was built by a practicing physician who spent years charting after clinic — missing dinners, sacrificing weekends, and watching colleagues burn out from the same invisible weight.
That firsthand experience shapes every decision we make: how we train our scribes, how we price our service, and how we measure success. We don't consider a day successful unless your charts are done before you leave the building.

Your patients' data is protected. Period.
Every safeguard is in place before your first patient encounter.
HIPAA Compliant

Trained & Vetted Staff

What's Included

No tiers. No add-on fees. One flat rate covers everything below.
