Adding consent forms to cases     

In the Treatment Planner, you can view the consent forms that have been set up for and added to a specific case. You can also remove consent forms from or add them to a case.

To add a consent form to a case

1.   Click the Treatment Plan Case Setup tab, and then select the case that you want to add a consent form to.

2.   In the Treatment Plan Case Setup toolbar, click Consent Forms.

Note: The Consent Forms button changes based on the status of the consent forms in the case. The button will have one of the following four statuses:

·          All consent forms have been signed.

·         Consent forms missing signature.

·         Case has unsigned consent forms.

·         No consent forms. 

3.   The Dentrix Consent Forms dialog box appears.

 

4.   Click the Add icon.

The Consent Form dialog box appears.

5.   If necessary, do the following:

·        Click the Font Size button (upper-right corner) and then from the menu, select a font size.

Note: By default, the consent form text appears in the Small font size. You also have options for Medium, Large, and X-Large.

·        Edit the patient information (Patient/Representative signature, Name, Date, and Relationship to patient) or the practice information (Practice signature, Name, and Date) as necessary.

·        Click Additional Notes to add notes to the form, if the consent form does not have any signatures attached.

Note: If the consent form has one or more signatures, and the form has been saved, you cannot add notes to it, nor can you change any patient or provider information.

·        Click Save to save any changes.

·        Click Print to print the consent form.

Note: You can print any consent form, even an unsigned one.

6.   Click Close twice.

The Consent Form and Dentrix Consent Forms dialog boxes close, respectively.
