Placeholders can be added to forms and consents when editing to personalize the patient experience. Placeholders use a Variable Code that will auto-fill with patient or practice information. These will pull from your Practice Management Software or the Practice Info section in Engagement Settings.

A note about using placeholders in Automated Consents

Placeholders in consents are not mandatory. However, consents with placeholders can only be automated if they include any of the three following placeholders that can be filled automatically:

  • {{tooth_or_site}}

  • {{provider}}

  • {{appointment_date}}

If the consent contains any other placeholders, such as {{diagnosis}} or {{patient_initials}}, they will be considered custom and the information cannot be automatically pulled from the appointment booking.
