Digital Consent Forms
Paperless, legally-binding patient consent — capture signatures on-screen for every procedure.
What is Digital Consent Forms?
The Consent Forms module digitises the entire patient consent process. Create reusable consent templates for surgeries, procedures, anaesthesia and data privacy. Assign the right form to each patient or appointment, capture a legally-binding digital signature on-screen, and store every signed consent permanently against the patient's record with a full timestamp audit trail.
No more lost paperwork, incomplete forms or consent shoved into paper files that nobody can find when needed. Every signed consent is instantly retrievable from the patient's EMR — essential for medicolegal defence, regulatory compliance and insurance audits.
Templates are fully customisable. Each hospital creates its own consent language, adds procedure-specific risks and benefits, and defines signature fields for the patient, doctor and witness. Digital signatures can be captured at the hospital on a tablet or remotely through the patient portal.
Key Features
Everything Digital Consent Forms brings to your hospital to streamline operations and improve patient care.
Consent Templates
Reusable, customisable templates for surgery, procedure, anaesthesia, blood transfusion and data privacy consent. Each template has its own language and signature fields.
Digital Signature Capture
Capture legally-binding patient and guardian signatures on-screen using finger or stylus on any touch device. Signatures are encrypted and stored with the consent record.
Procedure-Specific Consent
Attach specific consent forms to surgeries and clinical procedures. The consent references the exact procedure, risks explained and benefits discussed.
Appointment & Admission Consent
Collect consent at the point of appointment, admission or before a procedure. Forms are pre-populated with patient and procedure details.
Witness & Doctor Signature
Capture signatures from the treating doctor and witness alongside the patient's signature. Complete the consent chain for legal validity.
Consent History
Full history of every consent signed by the patient — viewable in the EMR. Perfect for audits, medicolegal queries and treatment verification.
Use Cases
See how healthcare providers use Digital Consent Forms in practice.
Surgery Department
A hospital surgery department processes 200+ consents per week. Digital forms eliminated lost paperwork entirely. Audit-ready consent retrieval that used to take hours now takes seconds.
Day Surgery Centre
A day surgery centre sends consent forms through the portal 24 hours before the procedure. Patients review risks, sign digitally and arrive on the day ready for surgery.
