Sharing Documents

Documents can be shared without requiring the recipients to sign the document. This allows you to distribute documents outside of the signature workflow.

The sharing workflow allows you to select the patient as the recipient; to search for and select a staff member as the recipient; to search for and select a referring physician as the recipient; and to manually add a recipient.

Documents are sent to recipients via email.

Shared document links expire 30 days from the sending date. The links expiration timer can be reset by re-sending the link to the recipient .

Shared links can also be voided.

Caution

A document in the Draft/In Progress stages of the signature workflow can be shared, but the document will not be sent to share recipients until the final signature is collected (i.e. the signature process and the document's status is Completed).
