What is it?

What is Digital Informed Consent?

Digital informed consent is the evolution of the traditional paper document that authorizes medical procedures.

With QHORTE CI, healthcare institutions can manage the entire informed consent cycle electronically: from generating the personalized document, through patient signature, to secure storage with legal validity.

The patient receives a notification on their phone (SMS or WhatsApp), reviews the procedure information, and signs electronically from any device. Everything is recorded with certified time stamping.

Key benefits:
  • Eliminates paper and physical files
  • Reduces patient waiting times
  • Guarantees complete traceability
  • Complies with current legal regulations
