Forms and Paperwork
FMLA, disability, DMV and school forms arrive by phone with someone else's deadline attached. Capture form type, deadline and destination in one pass.
Under the federal FMLA regulations an employee generally has 15 calendar days to return a certification to their employer, which is why the patient on your phone is anxious and calling repeatedly. Capturing that deadline on the first call is what lets your staff work the pile in the right order.
Form fees vary by practice and sometimes by form type, and an inconsistent answer becomes a complaint. Your published policy is delivered the same way every time, including which forms you complete at no charge and which require payment before release.
Most form work stalls because something is missing: the form itself was never dropped off, the employer's fax number is unknown, the patient has not been seen in two years. Asking for all of it on the call removes the callback loop that adds days to every request.
School, camp and sports forms arrive in a wall during late summer, on top of the same visits your schedule already struggles with. Because every line is answered simultaneously, the August form wave does not decide whether a sick patient reaches your office.

No. It never completes clinical content, offers an opinion on work restrictions, or signs anything. It handles the request and status calls around the form, and hands your staff a complete, structured task.
It states the fee your practice has published for that form type. It does not estimate, negotiate, or quote a price you have not given it, and where your policy varies by situation it captures the details and routes the question.
From your rules. Many practices require a recent encounter before completing a disability or FMLA certification, and some require an in-person exam for driver or sports forms. You write the condition by form type; the system applies it consistently.
The regulations set the employee's obligation, not your physician's: generally 15 calendar days to return the certification to the employer, and seven calendar days to cure a certification the employer finds incomplete. Capturing the date the employer requested it tells your team how much runway is left.
No, but it captures how the form will reach you, whether the patient is dropping it off, the employer is faxing it, or it sits in an online portal that requires your staff to log in, so nothing waits on an assumption.
In the destination you choose: an EMR task, a forms queue, or a shared inbox. Delivery is available through API or FHIR for supported systems and through secure workflow automation elsewhere, with routing configurable by form type.
