If you attach one or more pre-visit Qnaires to an appointment type, when you book that appointment type for a patient, the pre-visit Qnaire(s) are automatically linked to the appointment and assigned to the patient. When the patient receives their appointment notification or reminder, the Qnaire is included in the message.

During the booking process, you can choose to manually remove any auto-assigned Qnaires that aren't required.

Also, if a patient selects this appointment type when booking an appointment online, they're prompted to complete the attached pre-visit Qnaire(s) as part of the booking process.

If you want a certain provider to review Qnaire responses prior to any appointments with this appointment type, you can choose to have Qnaire responses appear in a specific provider's CHR inbox. If no provider inbox is selected, Qnaire responses are sent to the default (assigned provider's) inbox.

📌 Note: During the booking process, front-end staff can modify who is to receive responses from the attached Qnaires. See Managing pre-visit Qnaires for an appointment.

💡 Tip: You can also attach post-visit Qnaires for patients to complete following a visit. See Attaching post-visit Qnaires to appointment types.
