CareRight has the ability to request a patient signature for any custom or system template in PDF format.
This allows you to sign HC21 forms, DB4 assignment of benefits and many more by simply presenting your patient with a tablet; storing the details within the system.
System Administration > Correspondence > Authorisation Request Templates
In this area of the system, you can configure the forms available for signing.
Positioning the signature
The system allows you to specify the parameters "Left" and "Bottom" in a unit known as "points".
Units are points. There are 72 points to an inch. When using absolute coordinates to position text, the page origin is in the bottom-left corner of the media. Increasing X moves text to the right. Increasing Y moves text up.
Width and height parameters simply provide any clipping or stretching behaviours you wish to add.
Adding a date
It is common for a signature to be paired with a signing date. Specify the positioning of your date element in a similar fashion.
Repeated on every page
For multiple page PDFs, the signature is repeated on each subsequent page.
Patient > Authorised Forms
When you need a patient to sign, navigate to the patient record, authorised forms, and present them with a tablet.
Be sure your patient has read and reviewed the document prior to signing.
