DeepScribe vs MedScrub
DeepScribe listens to oncology visits and drafts the note, and it surfaces the most relevant patient data before each visit. MedScrub does a different job. It summarizes the synced chart overnight, trends labs, flags open plans and answers questions about the chart. The vendor says it runs on the clinician's own machine and strips all 18 HIPAA Safe Harbor identifiers before any model sees the data.
A clinic that needs the visit conversation written into a note is outside MedScrub's market, and a practice that only wants chart summaries has no reason to price an ambient scribe. DeepScribe is for the oncology group that wants visits documented and coded, and the vendor publishes no price. MedScrub is for the practice that wants overnight chart prep and open-plan checks, listed at $89 per provider monthly on the annual Practice plan or $99 monthly on Solo, currency not stated.
