Overview
What happens after forms are completed?
Completed forms will automatically appear in the Outstanding Items section of the patient’s chart. Each form will show up as an individual ‘Report’ that can be reviewed and signed off, along with the date and time it was completed. By default, only Provider Level Users can sign off on forms responses. Admin Level Users can turn on a setting for specific Patient Forms to allow Staff Level Users to sign off on forms responses. This feature is ideal for forms that generally do not require provider oversight such as forms for demographics or insurance collection.
