Job Description
Position: Launch Your Healthcare Career: Medical Scribe at The Kidney Experts (Remote)
Locations: Jackson, TN | Dyersburg, TN | Union City, TN
Type: Full-Time (Part-Time Considered for Exceptional Candidates)
Work Arrangement: On-site during onboarding and training (travel between locations may be required). All scribing is virtual via Google Meet — even when you're at the same location as the provider. Remote work may become available based on demonstrated performance and accuracy.
Compensation: $12 – $15/hour to start, with performance-based and AI-proficiency increases. Hospital scribing assignments pay a higher rate.
Two of our scribes have gone on to medical school. One is in PA school right now. Several more are on that path as we speak.
This isn't a transcription job. At The Kidney Experts, you'll work side-by-side with nephrologists — documenting real patient encounters, learning real medicine, and building the clinical foundation for wherever your healthcare career takes you next.
Our mission? Ridding the world of the need for dialysis. We keep patients healthy before they ever need a dialysis chair. If that sounds like something worth being part of, keep reading.
Why Scribes Choose TKE Over Anywhere Else
Most scribe jobs are a stepping stone you endure. This one is a launchpad you'll talk about in your med school or PA school interview.
Real clinical exposure, not busywork. Your primary work is documenting CKD clinic visits — the core of what TKE does. You'll join nephrology encounters via Google Meet, capturing everything in real time while the physician focuses entirely on the patient. You'll also prechart dialysis notes and, as you grow, you may earn the opportunity to scribe hospital rounds. You're part of the care team, not in a back office.
Mentorship that matters. You'll work directly with nephrologists and advanced practice providers who know your name, invest in your growth, and write recommendation letters for strong performers. This isn't a 200-person scribe company where you're a number.
AI skills you won't get anywhere else. TKE is building in-house AI tools for clinical workflows. As a scribe here, you'll learn and use these tools as they're developed — gaining healthcare AI experience that sets you apart from every other applicant to medical or PA school. And your proficiency with these tools directly unlocks faster pay increases.
A mission that actually means something. "Prevention Over Profit" isn't a slogan — it's how we practice. We measure success by patients who never need dialysis. You'll see what purpose-driven medicine looks like from day one.
What Your Days Look Like
No two days are identical, but here's how the role evolves:
During onboarding and training, you'll be on-site at our clinics in Jackson, Dyersburg, or Union City — learning our systems, our workflows, and how nephrology care actually works. You may travel between locations during this period. This hands-on training is how we set you up to succeed, and it's thorough by design.
Here's the thing most people don't expect: even when you're at the same physical location as the provider and patient, scribing at TKE is done virtually — through Google Meet. You'll document in real time from a workstation while the physician is with the patient. This is how we've built our model, and it works.
Remote work is earned, not automatic. As you demonstrate accuracy, consistency, and the ability to work independently, remote work may become available. The better and more comprehensive your work — and the fewer errors — the easier it is to transition to working from home. Some scribes get there. It's something you earn through performance.
Here's what the work itself looks like:
CKD Clinic Documentation (Your Primary Role)
This is the core of the job. You'll join nephrology patient encounters via Google Meet, documenting histories, physical exams, diagnoses, and treatment plans in the EHR in real time. You'll see the full spectrum of kidney care — early CKD patients we're keeping healthy, complex cases requiring careful management, and everything in between. CKD management is what TKE exists to do, and it's where you'll spend most of your time.
Dialysis Precharting
Before dialysis rounds, you'll prepare notes so the…
