Compliance & Security
Patient consent management
Consent in healthcare isn't one-size-fits-all. Treatment consent, data sharing consent, research consent, and myHealth Record access each have different requirements. Software must capture, store, and enforce them correctly.
Common challenges
What teams struggle with
Multiple consent types
Treatment, data use, marketing, research, and myHealth Record consent all differ.
Consent at point of care
Capturing consent can't slow down clinical workflows.
Consent withdrawal
Patients can withdraw consent — systems must enforce this immediately.
Audit requirements
Regulators and patients need proof of what was consented to and when.
