Digitize patient intake forms in minutes with intelligent automation
HIPAA-Compliant Online Forms Built for Healthcare
PlatoForms converts your existing healthcare PDFsâintake forms, consent documents, medical questionnairesâinto secure, HIPAA-compliant online forms. Our AI field detection preserves your approved layouts and clinical language while automating data collection. Go live in 30 minutes with automatic encryption, e-signatures, and audit trails.
Remedy for Healthcare Data Collection Challenges
Keep every detail intact while enabling digital completion
Preserve Your Exact PDF LayoutâMake It Fillable Online
Some healthcare documents cannot be redesigned. State-mandated forms, legally reviewed consent documents, and branded intake forms require exact formatting.
PlatoForms creates fillable PDF forms online without altering your original layout. AI identifies form fields and overlays interactive areas directly onto your PDFâpreserving fonts, spacing, logos, and legal language pixel-for-pixel. Patients complete forms in their browser, and you receive finished PDFs that match your approved templates exactly. Critical when auditors or regulatory bodies require specific document formats.
Modern, responsive forms that adapt to any device
Convert Patient Forms to Mobile-Optimized Web Forms
Patients increasingly expect to complete intake forms on their phones before appointments. PlatoForms converts your existing patient intake PDFs into mobile-optimized web forms that adapt seamlessly to any deviceâsmartphones, tablets, or desktops. AI automatically detects every fieldâmedical history checkboxes, insurance information, consent signaturesâand transforms them into a clean, responsive layout that adjusts to any screen size.
Choose between Classic view (all questions visible at once) or Conversational mode (one question at a time, like a chat) to match how patients prefer to fill out forms. Responsive web forms reduce incomplete submissions, eliminate illegible handwriting, and deliver patient data directly into your systemâno printing, no scanning, no manual data entry.
Ensuring data security and patient privacy
Simplified HIPAA Compliance
Automated appointment confirmations that patients actually respond to
Easy Appointment Booking
Set up automatic reminder emails at 1 day, 3 days to trigger reminders whenever appointments are booked. When patients complete intake forms before arriving, theyâre 30% more likely to show up, keeping your schedule full and your practice running smoothly.
Stop the email ping-pong for multi-person review
Approval Workflows That Actually Flow
With PlatoForms workflows, each person sees only their sectionânurses handle intake, physicians sign clinical fields, billing handles payments. Automatic notifications and reminders keep the process moving, everyone works in the same secure form, no ‘Who has the latest copy?’ chaos.
Eliminate the ‘missing paperwork’ chase
One Form Fills Multiple DocumentsâAutomatically
With PlatoForms Master Forms, they fill out one screen. PlatoForms generates all four completed PDFs instantly, bundled and ready for the chart. No more ‘Which form didn’t they sign?’ No more calling patients back. Your front desk gets a complete package every time.
Send follow-up forms with known patient data already filled in
Prefill Patient Forms to Save Time and Reduce Errors
For returning patients, asking for the same information repeatedly is inefficient and frustrating. With PlatoForms’ prefill invitations, you can send forms with patient data already populated.
Before sending a follow-up questionnaire or a new consent form, pre-fill it with information from your records, such as the patient’s name, date of birth, and insurance ID. The patient simply reviews the existing data, completes the new fields, and signs. You can even lock critical information to prevent accidental edits.
This streamlines the intake process for annual check-ups, post-procedure follow-ups, and multi-visit treatment plans. It improves data accuracy, reduces form abandonment, and shows patients you value their time.
Conditional logic reduces unnecessary questions
Smart Forms That Adapt to Each Patient
Conditional logic shows or hides sections based on answersâif a patient says âNoâ to medications, follow-up dosage fields disappear. Fields are required only when relevantâinsurance details required if billing insurance, optional for cash.
Responses can even redirect different confirmation pages: urgent symptoms â âCall us immediately,â routine follow-up â âWeâll see you Thursday.â Smarter forms mean less frustration and more complete data.
Seamless integrations, easy Payments, and secure Data Storage
Secure Data Storage & Payment Integrations
Embed online payment forms directly into your website and integrate with payment processors like Stripe, enabling patients to pay bills conveniently and securely.
Sync reminder data with your apps, EHRs, and internal systems
Integrated Tools for Smart Reminder Workflows
For direct EHR integration, use our webhook API to push data automatically. Export to CSV, JSON, or PDF anytime for manual import.
Tablets, paper, or homeâset limits and save progress effortlessly
Flexible Forms for Every Patient
Want patients to start at home and finish in-office? Enable save-for-later. For events like vaccination clinics, set submission limits and automatically redirect to a waitlist when full. PlatoForms works the way your patients do.
Audit-ready documentationâalways
Complete Activity Logs for Every Form Interaction
During HIPAA audits, you can produce full documentation in minutes instead of hours. All logs are encrypted and access-controlled, automatically meeting Security Rule requirements.

You don’t configure theseâthey’re built into the platform. We also offer two-factor authentication for team accounts and comply with data retention policies for healthcare records. -

How quickly can we digitize our existing forms with AI?
Most practices publish their first AI-digitized form within 30 minutes. Upload your existing patient intake PDFâPlatoForms’ AI automatically detects and maps all fields including text boxes, checkboxes, signatures, and dates. Simply review the detected fields, adjust labels if needed, and click Publish. For custom forms, describe your requirements in plain languageâlike ‘Create a pediatric intake form with vaccination history and parental consent’âand our AI form generator builds the structure automatically. No coding, no IT team, no complexity. -
Can we collect accurate phone numbers and addresses from diverse patients?
Yes. PlatoForms includes enhanced phone fields with country flags, dialing codes (+1, +44, +86), and format validationâreducing wrong-number errors. Our country field displays flags for visual clarity. You can enable multi-language support so patients complete forms in Spanish, Chinese, or other languages while your team receives data in English. This reduces intake errors and serves diverse patient populations better.
