Patient Screening Questionnaires
Automate clinical screening with validated questionnaires
Clinical screening questionnaires are essential for evidence-based care, but administering and scoring them manually is inefficient and prone to errors. From depression screening (PHQ-9) and anxiety assessment (GAD-7) to pain scales and substance use screening, these validated instruments need to be delivered consistently, scored accurately, and reviewed promptly. Formisoft automates the entire screening workflow from delivery to scoring to provider notification.

Formisoft includes pre-built templates for widely used screening instruments, and you can create custom questionnaires for any clinical purpose. Screening forms are delivered as part of the pre-visit intake workflow or as standalone assessments. When a patient completes a screening questionnaire, the system calculates the score automatically using the validated scoring methodology and categorizes the result by severity level.
The real power of automated screening is in the follow-up actions. When a patient scores above a configured threshold, Formisoft can immediately alert the provider, flag the patient record, and trigger additional assessment forms. For practices that need to document screening compliance for quality measures or insurance requirements, Formisoft provides complete records of screening frequency, scores, and trends over time.
