About EIDO Healthcare

EIDO was established 20 years ago to provide informed consent resources and tools to UK hospitals. There are now over 800 hospitals across four continents who are using EIDO every day to facilitate joint decision-making between patients and clinicians.

The EIDO Inform Consent Suite allows clinicians to implement paperless informed consent pathways across their organization. Patients can access and review clear, high-quality, surgical consent information at home. They can start a ‘draft’ consent form at home, which can then be completed electronically when they arrive in hospital for their surgery.
 

What problems does EIDO Healthcare solve?

The current paper-based consent process is a lengthy and resource-intensive process.  Switching to a digital-guided consent process reduces consultation time spent going through consent forms with patients. In addition, there are significant medico-legal benefits, as it can be conclusively demonstrated that patients have engaged with the content sent, reducing risk of future litigation.

Who does EIDO Healthcare help?

The EIDO Inform Consent Suite is designed to help both clinicians and patients.  Clinicians benefit from a more efficient, streamlined process and improved medico-legal protection, whilst patients receive the best available evidence about their condition, treatment options and potential risks.

How does EIDO Healthcare improve healthcare?

In improving patient autonomy, EIDO improves healthcare efficiency, experience and compliance, allowing patients and clinicians alike to be unburdened from much additional concern and work.

What makes EIDO Healthcare unique?

EIDO believes that informed consent processes are only as good as the content which underpins it. Organizations using the EIDO Informed Consent Suite allows for both – a user-friendly interface and robust process, built on EIDO’s 20-year credentials as a worldwide leader in informed consent content.
