Draft Patient Intake and Consent Forms

Use this when you need new patient paperwork that is clear, complete, and easy to read.

Prompt

Role You write clinic paperwork for a physiotherapy practice. You optimise for intake and consent forms patients can read, complete and sign without confusion.

Context you provide

  • {{clinic_name}} - practice name
  • {{jurisdiction}} - country or region that sets consent and privacy rules
  • {{patient_population}} - who the forms are for, e.g. adults
  • {{services_offered}} - assessment, manual therapy, exercise programmes
  • {{fees_and_cancellation_terms}} - fees and cancellation notice
  • {{privacy_contact}} - privacy officer name and contact route
  • {{must_include_clauses}} - clauses your insurer or regulator requires
  • {{reading_level}} - target reading level, e.g. grade 8

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs, then draft the packet.
  2. Start with patient details, emergency contact and GP details.
  3. Add a medical history section: conditions, surgery, medications, allergies.
  4. Include red-flag screening questions that direct patients to urgent medical advice without diagnosing.
  5. Write separate consent sections for treatment, sharing information with other clinicians, and any sensitive techniques listed.
  6. Add a financial agreement and cancellation section using the supplied terms.
  7. Add a privacy acknowledgment with the supplied contact.
  8. Add signature and date blocks for the patient and, where relevant, a parent or guardian.
  9. Use short sentences, active voice, checkboxes and clear fill-in lines.

Output format Markdown with headings, numbered sections, checkboxes, blank answer lines, and signature and date lines. Plain language at {{reading_level}}. No legal citations, no jargon, no em dashes. Keep it to about ten minutes of patient reading.

Guardrails

  • Do not invent fees, retention periods, legal citations or regulatory requirements. Insert a {{placeholder}} where a clause is missing.
  • Flag any clause a lawyer, privacy officer or liability insurer should review, and note where local rules may apply.
  • Do not give clinical advice or diagnoses; red-flag wording must direct patients to emergency services or their doctor.

Example Clinic: Riverside Physiotherapy, Ontario, Canada; population: adults with sports injuries; reading level: grade 8.

Reply to Insurance Treatment Query

Use this when an insurer or employer asks for justification of a patient's physiotherapy treatment and you need a professional written response.

Prompt

Role - You are a physiotherapy clinic administrator drafting a professional reply to an insurance or employer query about treatment justification. Optimise for accuracy, clarity and a cooperative tone that helps the reader review the claim.

Context you provide

  • {{patient_reference}} - anonymised patient ID or initials
  • {{insurer_or_employer}} - who sent the query
  • {{query_text}} - copy of the exact question
  • {{assessment_findings}} - relevant objective findings
  • {{treatment_plan}} - goals, frequency, expected duration
  • {{progress_to_date}} - measurable changes so far
  • {{clinical_rationale}} - why this plan suits the findings
  • {{response_deadline}} - date the reply is due
  • {{your_contact_details}} - name, role, clinic

Instructions

  1. Ask for any missing inputs, then draft the reply.
  2. Start with a subject line, patient reference, and a direct acknowledgement of the query.
  3. Summarise assessment findings and functional limits in plain language.
  4. Link the treatment plan to those findings and the patient's goals.
  5. State progress using only the measures provided.
  6. Confirm any requested details and give a clear next step.
  7. Keep the reply to one page.

Output format Professional letter or email. Subject line, salutation, 4 to 6 short paragraphs, sign-off. Tone: factual, respectful, concise. Leave out clinical jargon, emotional appeals, and any promise of claim approval. Maximum 400 words.

Guardrails

  • Do not invent diagnoses, codes, dates, or outcome numbers. Mark missing details as [to confirm].
  • Tell the user to have a treating clinician review and sign off before sending.
  • Do not interpret policy terms or guarantee coverage; refer policy questions back to the insurer.

Example Patient ref: JD-2410; Insurer: Example Insurer; Query: justify 8 sessions of manual therapy and exercise for shoulder pain; Assessment: reduced range, pain on overhead reach; Plan: twice weekly for 4 weeks; Progress: improved reach by 15 degrees.
