What is eConsent?

When a patient needs to undergo treatment or a procedure for a serious condition, they need to provide their consent before it can proceed. Traditionally, this would be in the form of a handwritten signature on a physical document. The signature offers confirmation of who signed the consent form and that they agree to the contents of the form.

eConsent (or electronic consent) is based on the same principle and in accordance with established legal regulations such as eIDAS, an electronic signature is legally equivalent to a handwritten signature. eConsent holds the same validity as traditional consent, but there are several benefits to transitioning to a secure digital platform like eSign.

Streamline Processes with eConsent

Simplify overcomplicated processes.

Optimise the Patient Experience

The main priority for hospitals and medical practices is to provide patients with the highest standard of care, and eConsent can play a key part in achieving that aim. eConsent saves crucial time for patients and staff, including gaining patient consent and releasing medical records. 

eSign is an industry-leading provider of e-signatures and digital document solutions. Our solutions modernise the outdated paper-based methods, and support organisations in resolving their specific challenges. Gain consent in a fully secure way, reduce admin tasks, minimise compliance mistakes, and improve patient care.

Make valuable savings to use in other areas.

Reduce unnecessary additional costs

Several factors have led to difficulties within the healthcare sector ,including growing administration costs, restrictions caused by the pandemic and limited resources. Digital solutions like eConsent have allowed the sector to mitigate some of these issues and make important savings in time and costs. 

By digitising the consent process, a significant amount of savings can be made in the removal of paper, printing, postage, and other associated expenses. Over time this can accumulate and free more budget to be allocated to more important areas of the organisation.

“Using eSign has significantly reduced the time it takes to send and receive contracts which means we close deals quicker. I especially like how you can redirect and edit documents without creating new envelopes and keep track of which contracts are pending signature as an admin. As an environmentally friendly business, it’s helpful to see how much carbon we are saving with the carbon counter. I would definitely recommend eSign to a business who is looking to close deals faster.”

“We use eSign at the University of Salford to issue copyright declaration forms when supplying copies of material to users of our archives. We used to issue the forms as attachments to emails, but users found it difficult to sign and return the forms, especially if they didn’t have a printer. Sending the forms using eSign has made it much easier and quicker for our users to sign and return the forms. From our end it is simple and straightforward to issue the forms via eSign and we get a notification when they have been completed.”
