Freed vs Scribble
IKS Health sells Scribble in four tiers that differ in human review. Now is fully automated, Swift adds a human scribe and takes about an hour, Pro adds a clinician scribe who reviews and posts to the EHR in about four hours with E&M coding, and Select lets the clinician choose a tier per encounter. IKS states Scribble is accessible inside Epic Connection Hub and holds SOC 2 Type 2 certification. A client story the vendor ran reports a multi-specialty group gaining 9.34% more RVUs, $106k net per physician yearly. The human check before notes land is Scribble's draw for Epic groups. Freed posts plans from $39 per month for one clinician up to a custom Groups tier with SSO, admin dashboards and a dedicated account manager. For a 10-physician group that wants a monthly price it can budget before a sales call, Scribble loses: IKS publishes no price, and Freed lists $39 to $119 per month.
