Here are the 5 major benefits of choosing SignNow for medical organizations and healthcare businesses:

Accuracy

Because SignNow allows patients to submit their forms digitally, healthcare organizations can be sure that all their documents are legible and that all required information has been entered. As soon as a client opens a document, SignNow’s smart fillable fields wizard leads them through all the fields they need to fill out. You’ll also receive an email notification once a signer completes your form.

Time Saving

Сreate and collect electronic signatures for your documents faster than ever before. Enable patients to complete intake forms digitally, from anywhere. The process for creating a digital intake form is simple: create or upload a form to the SignNow online document editor, make specific fields fillable and then distribute the link so that patients can complete and sign your intake form on any internet-connected device, at home or on the go.

Security

The US government gave electronic signatures legal equivalence to handwritten ones in 2000 with the ESIGN Act. Since then, millions of hospital forms, patient onboardings, billing and consent forms have been signed electronically from all around the world. All signatures added in SignNow are legally binding under the ESIGN Act.

SignNow is highly equipped to offer one of the most secure e-signature solutions available with SOC 2 Type II, which guarantees that a service organization meets or exceeds industry standards for security, availability, processing, integrity, confidentiality and privacy of a system. Once filled out and submitted, a document is stored in your personal SignNow account. At this stage, only you have access to the document which you can either share, email or print out from any internet connected device.

Save Money

Leading health plans and healthcare providers are using SignNow to move from inefficient, paper-based workflows to fully electronic processes. Save money on paper and related items while eliminating the financial burden of physical documents.

As an example, let’s examine the paper-based costs of a 20-person company. On average, the company signs 600 documents per month, which assumes that each employee signs about one document per day. The company manually files 300 documents, which is 50% of all documents, as well as scans 300 documents. After using an ROI calculator, we can determine that this company would most likely save about $10,000 per year on paper-based costs using SignNow.
