What intake looks like before and after OhMD

A receptionist gives a patient an intake form.
A patient fills out a virtual intake form and their doctor reviews it.

Before

Paperwork happens in the waiting room

Patients arrive early to fill out clipboards, staff chase down missing signatures or skipped pages, and clinicians walk in without having had time to review anything.

After

Forms are completed before the patient walks in

Patients receive a text link, complete the form on their own phone at their own pace, and staff receive a submission that's already validated and tied to the patient's record.

OhMD delivers forms the same way patients already communicate with your practice — by text — with no portal login required.
