How to get started with webforms?

Post by hankwillis » Mon Jan 10, 2011 11:44 am

To date I've been using paper forms (new patient info, med hx, etc) and scanning them into images. I'd like to eliminate that paper, scanning, and time waste.

Are the webforms pre-made by Open Dental for our use? Can we, the users, tweak and alter the forms to our liking? Or do I have to make my own form and upload it?

Can this be done with a tablet PC or ipad that the patient can use to fill out the form and sign on the touchscreen and then import into their chart?

How does the webform seem to work best in practice?

Thanks

You can tweak the existing forms. Yes, the patients can fill it out on a tablet. They will still have to "type" of course, even if it's just an on-screen keyboard.
