Walk into any busy practice and you’ll likely see the same scene: stacks of patient forms waiting to be filled out, signed, and filed away. It’s a process we’ve all put up with for years. Even practices using electronic medical records (EMR) software or patient management software find that it can slow down your team, frustrate patients, and add stress to an already busy day.
That’s where
IMS EasySign comes in.
At
Meditab, we’ve seen how much time providers and staff spend wrestling with paperwork, and we knew there had to be a better way. Having a medical EMR system with
EasySign
helps practices securely capture patient, guardian, or provider signatures at the point of care, within IMS. It lightens paperwork, gives patients the convenience they expect, and frees your staff to focus on care rather than chasing down patients for consent and sign-offs.
Let’s take a closer look at how it works and why it matters.

The Traditional Challenges of Patient Signature Capture
For front desk and clinical staff, signature collection often involves endless tracking and multiple dead ends. Chasing after missing consents, reprinting forms with errors, scanning and uploading documents to the correct patient chart—all repetitive, tedious tasks that take time away from actual patient care.
Patient signature capture is an ongoing challenge because it’s:
- Time-consuming: Staff spend hours each week collecting, scanning, and filing signed paperwork.
- Prone to errors: Handwriting can be difficult to read, signatures get missed, and duplicates increase the risk of mistakes.
- Hard to manage:
Paper forms pile up quickly and require extra effort to track, store, or reprint when errors occur.
- Workflow interruptions:
Providers can’t always proceed with care or billing if the required signatures aren’t captured in time.
- Frustrating for patients: Waiting while staff sort through paperwork or request additional signatures slows down appointments and impacts their experience.
