"The doctor's duty is not fulfilled by…
routinely demanding a signature on a consent form."

Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board [2015] UKSC 11

Consent is a dialogue.
Now you can prove it.

Get Patient Consent turns informed consent into a documented conversation between clinician and patient — with a tamper-proof audit trail that holds up in court.

Paper consent is broken

A signature on a form proves nothing about what the patient understood. A digital consent platform should do better.

Patient Q&A

Patients can ask questions at any point during the consent process. Clinicians respond. The entire thread becomes part of the documented consent record. Consent as a genuine dialogue.

Tamper-proof audit trail

Every action is logged with cryptographic hash chaining: what was shown, when it was viewed, how long was spent reading, and what was signed. Immutable and independently verifiable.

Evidence of understanding

Track time spent on each section, comprehension checkpoints, and leaflet read-confirmations. Prove the patient was informed, not just that they signed.

Patient information leaflets

Attach versioned PDFs to any consent request. Patients confirm they have read each one. The exact version they saw is locked into the consent record.

Complete anywhere

Patients receive a secure link by email and complete consent on any device. In clinic, a QR code gets them started instantly. Mobile-first, accessible, no app to download.

Day-of-procedure confirmation

On the day, patients scan a QR code to confirm their consent is still valid — or raise new questions. A second layer of evidence for the clinical record.

Simple for clinicians. Clear for patients.

Sending a consent request takes under two minutes. Completing one takes about ten.

1

Select & customise

Choose a consent template, attach leaflets, add patient-specific notes or risks.

2

Send to patient

The patient receives a secure link by email, or scans a QR code in clinic.

3

Review & ask

The patient reads each section at their own pace, asks questions, confirms understanding.

4

Sign & record

Digital signature, PDF generated, full audit trail locked in. Consent documented.

Consent is a conversation, not a form

Most consent platforms digitise the paper form: present information, capture a signature. That misses the point. The Supreme Court was clear — informed consent requires dialogue.

"The doctor's advisory role involves dialogue, the aim of which is to ensure that the patient understands… This role will only be performed effectively if the information provided is comprehensible."

Montgomery v Lanarkshire Health Board [2015] UKSC 11, para. 90
