Why VIP is better than an E-signature solution?
E-signature apps are designed to complete a transaction, not build a relationship with a new customer. They also aren’t designed for the seriously ill who have limited vision and dexterity.
What Agencies Say
I love using SmartMD
It has helped us to complete admissions more timely and to gather accurate information directly from the family. I love not having to write information on paper, fax or email and then wait several days to receive a signed hard copy back from the family or caregiver. Admission paperwork can now be completed in less than one hour versus our previous process that took half a day to days.
Chuck CrispConnect & service patients sooner
VIP has allowed our team to connect and serve patients and families sooner, and it is easy to use. Finally, hospice admissions have a user friendly way to explain services and start the admission process electronically. We have been waiting for a solution like this for years!
David CookWhat Patients Say
Making this Admission Process Easy
This system is amazing and extremely easy to navigate. I appreciate you making this admission process easy so I can quickly get my mother the care she needs.
CaregiverPleasantly Surprised at How Easy it Was to Use
Initially, I was a little anxious to use the SMARTMD portal because I’m not very tech savvy. But, I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to use. The directions were simple and clear and the information and forms were presented in manageable segments so it wasn’t too overwhelming. Frankly, because I could do it at my own pace and it advanced me through the process, it was even easier than doing it in person with paper forms. I would highly recommend the SMARTMD portal as a way to document hospice consent forms.
JoanHow It Works
Our Virtual Intake Portal (VIP) simplifies the process for intake, the admission nurse, patients, and their caregivers. We provide a simple step-by-step experience for patients and caregivers that reduces the stress of admitting to hospice. Admission nurses can help patients through the process online, or complete paperwork on their iPad at the patient’s home. Intake teams use our cloud app from the office or at home, to receive paperwork immediately (no waiting on faxes).

Step 1: Invite patient or caregiver.

Step 2: Patient clicks link to watch explanation of service videos and review forms.

Step 3: Patients sign consent, scan documents, & upload paperwork.

Step 4: Nurse completes paperwork online or on iPad at patient home. All documents delivered to intake team.
