Step-by-Step Solutions
1. Verify Patient Input
Ask the patient to verify how they are entering their last name. Make sure there are no spaces before or after the last name. The name the patient is entering, must match what is in Phamily.
For names with suffixes, ensure the suffix is in the Suffix field in Phamily (or remove it from the last name) and have the patient re-attempt to submit the form
For names with hyphens, confirm the patient is entering both names with the hyphen
For non-hyphenated names, confirm the patient is entering both names without the hyphen
Ensure DOB is entered in MM/DD/YYYY format- Once the correct details are entered, ensure patients check the necessary boxes and click the 'Sign Up' button to submit the consent form successfully.
Encourage patients to double-check their details before submission to prevent common errors.
Avoid punctuation marks such as periods, commas, or accent marks while entering the last name.
2. Resend the Consent Form
Send a fresh consent link in a new message by adding {{consent_url}} to the message.
Include clear instructions to enter name and DOB accurately
If the patient faces repeated failures in signing electronically, consider obtaining verbal consent as an alternative. Document the verbal consent in the Phamily system following CCM protocol.
