King County Administers Over 2 Million COVID-19 Tests

Scribe-X and Med-X Staff Critical COVID-19 Testing Centers in Partnership with Washington State's Largest County

PORTLAND, OR, October 20, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Scribe-X, the nation's premier medical scribe services company, and Med-X, providing exceptional medical staffing services across the Pacific Northwest, have offered its COVID-19 Support Services for an entire year now, partnering with county testing sites across Washington State. The services play a critical role in helping health centers manage the health outcomes of its communities during pandemic conditions. Testing sites can see more than 3,000 patients a day and they've administered a record number 2 million tests.

"Testing numbers remain high as we approach the fall and winter seasons. On Labor Day, at the Auburn testing site, we tested 1,326 patients. This would not have been possible without the Med-X and Scribe-X staff who pitched in," said Dawn Spellman, Program Manager, COVID-19 Testing/Vaccine Coordination & Strategy, Seattle and King County.

"The Scribe-X and Med-X teams serving King County are critical to the success of the entire operation," said Jack Graham, Director of Operations at Scribe-X and Med-X. "Feedback from the health centers has been extremely positive, noting our team members are reliable, positive, and willing to pitch in wherever needed. By partnering with Scribe-X and Med-X, health centers have been able to quickly secure the staffing support needed to meet the testing demand compared to using traditional methods."

Patient Testing Assistants (PTAs) play a critical role on the Scribe-X and Med-X COVID-19 Support Services teams. PTAs receive unique and specialized training to obtain an MA-R (Medical Assistant-Registered) credential, allowing them to greet, register, and swab patients as needed. This role has filled in the gaps in light of staffing shortages currently plaguing every aspect of the health care community.
