The platform

One platform, one audit chain, every patient interaction

GetConsent is not an e-signature tool with a healthcare skin. It runs informed consent, financial consent, validated PROMs and PREMs, satisfaction and NPS, all governed by the same four-stage approval workflow, completed by patients on their own phones, recorded on the same tamper-evident chain, and filed to your EMR over FHIR R4.

The lifecycle

Consent is the centre of the workflow, not the edge of it

The same evidentiary rigour that makes consent defensible (governed content, verified comprehension, hash-chained events) runs through cost disclosure, outcomes, experience, agreements and postal reach. Click any stage to inspect the mechanism.

Step 01 of 07

No re-keying. Patients flow in from the systems you already run

CRM, scheduling, PMS and FHIR feeds create sessions automatically, matched to the right procedure pack. Nobody types a name twice.

  • One source of truth from your existing systems
  • FHIR R4 and PMS intake, mapped to the right pack
  • The right documents queued before the patient arrives

The patient experience

Done at home, before they arrive

A magic link on their phone. No app, no password, no account. Section-by-section content with a comprehension check per section, completed before they reach your waiting room, with results visible to the clinician.

  • No app, no password: one tap from SMS or email
  • 12+ languages with clinically reviewed translation and audio read-out
  • Comprehension verification with recorded attempt history
  • Questions and concerns captured before the consult

Equity · Languages & translation

Every patient, in a language they understand

An English-only form handed to a patient with limited English is not informed consent. GetConsent delivers content in 12+ languages with audio read-out. Each translation is AI-drafted, then reviewed and approved by a human with clinical and language expertise, following the same governance pathway as the English source.

  • 12+ languages with audio read-aloud
  • AI-drafted, human-reviewed, version-controlled translations
  • Source and translation reviewed side by side before publish
  • Language-distribution analytics to plan interpreter resources

Informed financial consent

The number is agreed before the procedure, not disputed after it

For private surgery, dental and cosmetic care, the price is part of consent. GetConsent itemises the fee, the rebate, the gap and every billing provider, adds a benchmark comparison and the public-funded alternative where one exists, and records the patient's acknowledgement of all of it.

  • Fee schedules and prosthesis pricing built in
  • Multi-provider breakdown: surgeon, anaesthetist, assistant, hospital
  • A gap estimate the patient explicitly acknowledges
  • Variation disclosure if the estimate changes

Outcomes · PROMs & PREMs

A clinical outcomes registry that runs itself

~59 validated instruments (PHQ-9, EQ-5D-5L, Oxford Hip and Knee, KOOS, EORTC), each with its published scoring algorithm, domain structure, severity bands and provenance. Change from baseline is classified against the instrument's published minimal clinically important difference, not an arbitrary threshold.

  • Baseline plus scheduled follow-ups, sent automatically
  • Instrument-correct scoring with domains and severity bands
  • Change classified against the published MCID
  • FHIR Questionnaire and QuestionnaireResponse export

Experience · Satisfaction & NPS

The survey nobody had to remember to send

The moment a consent or discharge completes, the right survey goes out on the schedule you set and rolls into a live NPS dashboard with trends, distributions, response rates and patient verbatims.

  • Auto-trigger after consent and after discharge
  • NPS, rating, Likert, multiple-choice and free-text
  • Conditional branching and NPS-segmented follow-ups
  • A live dashboard, not a CSV you export and forget

Clinical governance

One current version of every form, everywhere. Provably.

Every patient-facing document moves through Draft, In Review, Approved and Published with version control and a named clinical owner. You can always answer two questions a surveyor will ask: who approved this content, and which version did this patient see?

  • Four-stage approval with full version history
  • AI template generation and import from PDF or Word
  • Specialty content packs you install on day one
  • Translation governance with human review before publish

Operational intelligence

The numbers you currently can't get without a working bee

Real-time dashboards across completion, comprehension failures, time-to-complete and language distribution, at procedure, department, site and network level. The same data structure an accreditation framework asks you to evidence (such as NSQHS Standard 2).

  • Completion and comprehension-failure analysis
  • Time-to-complete and assistance-request rates
  • Language distribution for interpreter planning
  • Accreditation governance evidence export

Enterprise infrastructure

Built to pass your IT security review, not just your clinical one

SSO with JIT provisioning, FHIR R4 EMR integration, scheduling-feed ingestion, custom domains, fine-grained RBAC, and a multi-tenant control plane for health networks.

  • SSO: Microsoft Entra ID, Okta, generic OIDC
  • FHIR R4 plus direct EMR document filing
  • Custom domains and white-label deployment
  • Webhooks, configurable retention, and audit logging

Scheduled pack instances

Set up the journey once per procedure. It runs itself per patient.

A pack instance bundles the consent, the baseline PROM, the satisfaction survey and the contract into one scheduled journey with date anchors and dependencies. Activate it once: the consent sends now, the baseline outcome measure today, the experience survey seven days post-procedure, and the six-week follow-up on its own. No diary notes, no recall list, no “did anyone send Mrs Chen her six-week survey?”

  • One activation, many scheduled steps
  • Steps anchor to procedure, activation or completion dates
  • Dependencies unlock and send the next step automatically
  • One worklist, one patient journey, one financial summary
The shared spine

Governed templates, magic-link patient flows, hash-chained audit, webhooks, FHIR egress and multi-channel delivery sit under every step. Where competitors assemble this from disconnected products, here it is one data model, which is why the analytics can join consent, cost, outcome and experience on the same patient record.

FAQ

The questions a diligent evaluation asks

Where is patient data stored?
In regional data centres in the jurisdiction you choose, supporting local data-sovereignty requirements. Legal records reside in encrypted PostgreSQL; content and files in encrypted MongoDB. Data is encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256).
Does it integrate with our EMR?
Yes, and you don't have to wait for IT to start. GetConsent works standalone from day one; webhooks and API access then sync consent status; deep EMR integration (patient demographics and scheduling) is available on Enterprise. You choose the depth and the timeline.
How long does implementation take?
Most clinics are operational within 4 to 8 weeks, including template configuration, staff training, and a pilot phase. Small practices on the free trial can send a first consent the same day. Enterprise deployments with custom integrations vary with requirements. We scope that in the demo, and we will give you a realistic estimate, not an optimistic one.
What procedures are covered out of the box?
A starter pack covers common procedures across surgical, endoscopy, cardiology, orthopaedics and radiology. Any procedure can be added through the template governance workflow, with the same four-stage approval.
What about patients who struggle with technology?
The patient portal has adjustable text sizing, screen-reader support and multi-language content. A patient who gets stuck taps "I need help" and your clinical team is alerted, and the request is itself recorded as an event.
What makes the audit trail legally defensible?
Mechanism, not assertion. Every event is recorded in an immutable, hash-chained log: each event's SHA-256 hash incorporates the previous event's hash, and the server signs each entry with Ed25519. Altering any event invalidates every hash that follows, and the chain can be verified independently of our platform. It is designed to meet evidentiary standards. Courts decide admissibility and weight.
Can we customise consent templates?
Yes. Your clinical team creates, reviews and publishes templates through the governance workflow: procedure-specific content, comprehension questions, optional modules (sedation, implants, research), and multi-language translations, all version-controlled.
Do patients need to create an account?
No. Patients open a secure magic link from email or SMS, verify identity with their date of birth, and complete on any device. No passwords means no "I can't log in" calls to your front desk.
