With a certain global setting enabled, there are changes to the consent form interface and functionality in Treatment Planner. Using a consent form template as a guide, you can quickly and accurately create a custom consent form with minimal typing or editing. Dentrix Enterprise comes with a default template, but you can modify it to suit your needs or create new ones. Templates are grouped by category. Also, each template can have any number of prompts, which are messages that prompt you to enter responses to user-defined questions.
Important: Enable this functionality only if your workflow allows for creating a form and immediately signing it. With this functionality, when you add a consent form to a case, before you can save the form, the patient (or his or her representative), someone from the practice (such the dentist), and a witness (or interpreter) must sign it.
