From AI Scribing to RCM 2.0: How Emerge Ortho Transformed Documentation and Revenue Capture with iScribe Health

In a recent iScribe Health webinar, industry leaders from Emerge Ortho shared how their organization reimagined documentation—and unlocked new levels of efficiency and revenue—with iScribe’s AI-powered platform.

The conversation opened with a stark reality: over 70% of physicians report burnout, and documentation is the #1 driver. Providers routinely spend 10+ hours per week after clinic finalizing notes, translating to lost time, productivity, and revenue.

Enter iScribe Health.

Unlike basic speech-to-text tools, iScribe is a clinical-grade, AI-powered solution that works within your EHR to deliver accurate, real-time documentation and coding support. The result? Up to 90% less after-hours charting, cleaner claims, and faster reimbursements.

Mike Cardwell, iScribe’s VP of Product, described the platform as “a certified coder looking over your shoulder—only speaking up when needed.” The AI not only captures structured documentation but suggests compliant E/M codes in real time, alerting providers to gaps before they become billing issues.

Emerge Ortho’s CEO, Allison Farmer, and IT Director, Tammy Farris, highlighted the impact: reduced denials, happier providers, and a seamless integration with their EHR (AthenaHealth). Tammy noted, “Our providers used to spend hours after clinic. Now, they walk out with their notes done. It’s a game-changer.”

The demo led by VP of Customer Success Hannah Mundy showed just how intuitive iScribe is to use—with voice capture on mobile devices, E/M coding justification, and full back-office visibility via the enterprise console.

Key Takeaways:

• AI + coding logic means fewer errors and more complete documentation.
• Seamless EHR integration ensures no disruption to provider workflows.
• Real-time coding reduces denials and boosts revenue.
• Providers regain personal time—without sacrificing quality.

As iScribe CEO Pat Williams closed the session: “Documentation doesn’t have to be a burden. With the right partner, it becomes your competitive edge.”
