Abstract
A method for documenting informed consent includes obtaining a video recording of a patient indicative of informed consent, communicating the video recording across a network for data storage, and storing the video recording in a computer readable data storage medium. The video may include additional portions of a patient encounter. A software application for executing on a computing device may provide a user interface for obtaining video evidencing informed consent for the procedure, administering a quiz to the individual, presenting a document for signature to the individual, receiving a signature for the document from the individual.
Claims22
A method for obtaining and documenting informed consent, the method comprising:
- providing a software application to a computing device for executing on the computing device;
- receiving a selection of an individual into the software application executing on the computing device;
- receiving a selection of a procedure for which informed consent is desired into the software application executing on the computing device;
- capturing video evidencing informed consent for the procedure using the software application executing on the computing device;
- making available a quiz for the individual using the software application executing on the computing device, the quiz including a plurality of questions about the procedure for assessing informed consent;
- documenting administration of the quiz to the individual using the software application executing on the computing device;
- presenting a document for signature to the individual using the software application executing on the computing device, the documenting indicative of informed consent for the procedure;
- receiving a signature on the document from the individual using the software application executing on the computing device;
- and
- sending to a server from the computing device the video, the document with the signature, and storing the video in a non-transitory computer readable data storage medium associated with the server to thereby provide for documenting the informed consent of the individual for the procedure.
