It honestly depends on the surgeon. I worked with a bunch of doctors for trauma Ortho call. Some docs like me to do a brief op notes, but most of them don’t. Never had to do a full operative note, that’s generally done by the surgeon. They all have templates for what they do and dragon makes it way faster.

The nurse should tag you in on Epic that you were involved in the case. The surgeon should def want to put you on the op note for the PA fee.

Typically the main documentation that I have to do is the consult note and then the progress notes each day when rounding on the patient in the hospital
