Form Types

Create a patient registration form for your clinic

Filling forms in the waiting room slows every appointment down. Sending a patient registration form ahead of time gives the clinician the history, allergies and insurance details before the patient arrives, and gives reception a clean record instead of handwriting.

How to create a patient registration form in Formblyt

  1. Decide what happens before the visit

    Contact details, medical history, current medication, allergies, insurance and consent are the usual pre-visit set.

  2. Generate and tidy the form

    Describe your intake to the AI generator, then rename and reorder questions in the builder to match your clinic's flow.

  3. Use conditional history questions

    Only ask about pregnancy, smoking or specific conditions when previous answers make them relevant.

  4. Add consent with a signature

    Include a treatment or data-processing consent statement with an e-signature field.

  5. Send with the appointment reminder

    Include the short link in the confirmation SMS or email, or put a QR code at reception for walk-ins.

  6. Review before the appointment

    Open the submission in the dashboard before the patient is called in.

What to include in a patient registration form

These are the fields most clinics, dental practices, physiotherapists and independent practitioners end up needing. Start with them, then cut anything you will not act on — shorter forms get finished.

  • Patient name, date of birth and gender
  • Phone number and email
  • Address and emergency contact
  • Reason for visit / presenting symptoms
  • Current medication
  • Known allergies
  • Past medical and surgical history
  • Insurance provider and policy number
  • GP or referring doctor
  • Consent statement with signature

Frequently asked questions

Can patients complete this on a phone?

Yes. The published form is mobile-first and patients can photograph documents directly with the phone camera.

Can I capture consent signatures?

Yes. Add an e-signature field beneath the consent statement; the signature is saved as part of the submission record.

Who can see patient submissions?

Only your Formblyt account. Responses are protected by row-level access rules, and you control exports and deletion. Check your local healthcare data rules before collecting clinical information online.

Is the patient registration form free to use?

Yes. You can build and publish a patient registration form on the Formblyt free plan, within the free plan's monthly form and response limits. Paid plans raise those limits and unlock branding removal and advanced analytics.

Do respondents need an account?

No. Anyone with the link or QR code can complete the form in a browser. You can optionally require an email address if you need to identify each respondent.
