Understand the patient’s Teleconsent experience
The patient’s Teleconsent experience is similar to yours with a desktop split view. When a form is shared, it will be displayed on the left side of their screen, while their video call will appear on the right side.
💡 Each field is designated for either the patient or the provider, allowing you to fill out only the fields assigned to you.
Patients can scroll through the consent form at their own pace.
💡 Regularly check in with your patient during the document review process to confirm you're both on the same page and section of the form.
