Telehealth Consent template
A telehealth consent form covering the disclosures video-visit programs typically document: how virtual visits work, their limits, what happens when a call drops, and the patient's right to decline. It also asks which state the patient will be in during visits — the licensing detail that catches many telehealth workflows off guard — and closes with a signature.

What’s inside
The questions this template ships with — rename, reorder, or delete any of them in the builder.
When to use this template
- A practice adding video visits and needing documented consent from each patient before the first one
- A therapy group whose clients split time between two states, making the state-of-location question load-bearing
- A telehealth-first startup building consent into its patient onboarding flow
- A clinic replacing a scanned-PDF consent process that patients kept returning unsigned or half-legible
Tips to get more from it
- The "How telehealth visits work" statement is display-only text — rewrite it to describe your platform, your dropped-call procedure, and your recording policy before publishing
- The four acknowledgments are a required multi-select, so patients confirm each point individually — what telehealth is, its limits, technical interruptions, and the right to stop — rather than one blanket agreement
- The state question exists because providers can only see patients in states where they're licensed; consider a dropdown of your licensed states if the list is short
- The signature field requires the Pro plan to publish — the rest of the form runs on free
Questions people ask
Why does a telehealth consent form ask what state I'll be in?
Provider licensing is state-based, so practices document where the patient will be located during visits. The template includes this as a required question with an explanation patients see inline.
Is the signature on this form legally binding?
Zunoform records a drawn signature with the submission and its date. Whether that satisfies your documentation requirements depends on your jurisdiction and policies — confirm with your compliance advisor.
Do I need a paid plan to use this consent form?
Publishing it as-is requires Pro at $14.99/mo because of the signature field. If you replace the signature with a typed-name confirmation, the form publishes on the free plan.
