PDF Forms

Required Roles: Owner, Manager or Therapist

PDF forms are uploaded PDF documents you can assign to clients for viewing, downloading, or e-signature signing within their client portal account.

For security clients have to sign in to their client portal account to access these documents
These forms are view only and are not fillable PDF forms due to browser limitations
Clients are prompted to e-sign the document they can either draw or type
If you wish to create fillable forms for your clients, we recommend using our online forms feature
