A mental health clinic was printing thousands of pages of paper each month to provide blank forms for their clinicians to use with their clients. To reduced waste and costs as well as ensure data was legible and collected in a timely fashion, we were asked to develop a mobile application to address these issues.
The resulting app allows for any number of forms to be electronically collected and saved to the clinic's network. A 98% reduction in printed paper was achieved along with a 100% improvement in legibility! To ensure HIPAA compliance, the clinic does not include any HIPAA related information on these forms.
When COVID-19 regulations forced the transition to telehealth sessions, we enhanced the application with remote digital signature capabilities, allowing clients to complete and sign forms from their own devices during virtual appointments.
