Overview
POWERsign is an innovative solution for the office-based physician practice that enables you to
digitally capture patient signatures on any form (e.g. HIPAA Privacy Notice, Consent for Treatment) without touching paper.
POWERsign will display each form to be signed by the patient on a handheld tablet or secondary PC-attached monitor, enabling
your patients to read the form and view their signatures in context. The patient sees only the form (which can be your current,
unmodified paper forms that are scanned into the computer) and nothing else and signs it electronically using a stylus.
If the patient would like a copy you can print one after the signature has been captured.
Secure Signatures
When a signature is captured we record biometrics of each stroke to ensure the uniqueness. Since no person could
possibly create their own signature the same way twice this eliminates the cutting and pasting
of signatures from one document to another.
We then create a digital "fingerprint" of each signature as well as one for the document being signed. Together with
the form's annotations and a timestamp, these create a new document which itself is "fingerprinted". Any modification to
the signature, the document that was signed or the data linking it all will trigger an alert.
We have gone to extraordinary lengths to ensure WHO signed WHAT and WHEN so that signatures captured by
POWERsign are non-repudiable (unable to be doubted).
Reduces Errors
To help ensure required forms are always on file for a patient, POWERsign can require that certain forms
always be present in the patient's IMPOWER folder. When a folder is opened, if required forms are not present
you will receive a message from POWERsign telling you as much and the required forms that are not present will
be displayed in the list of forms to be signed.
