Outside Referrals

How are Clinics sending information, like a referral, when the receiving organization is requesting a signature?

Ray,
Does your EHR have the capability of providing an electronic signature? If so, do the referral agencies accept this?

Our agency does not have the capability for electronic signatures. This is on our future action items. At this time, providers are signing off on the written authorization and the forms are being scanned in. In addition, many specialist have there own referral forms they want us to use limiting our ability to create standard form in the EHR system. (This comment is address both the first and second questions).
