Allow patients to refuse to complete electronic patient-reported outcomes (ePRO) forms Copied

Practices will now have the option to allow patients to select “I refuse to complete the Patient Health Questionnaire” on the PHQ-2, PHQ-9, and NCCN Distress Thermometer forms. To enable this feature for your practice, please contact your Ontada Technology Account Manager.

Once activated, patients who choose this option can still successfully submit their forms. Refusal of the PHQ-2 or PHQ-9 does not block completion of other forms in the session.

The PDF version stored in the patient chart will clearly display the patient’s refusal.
