Missing documents cost clinicians treatment time

Answers are general operational information only — not legal, tax, regulatory, clinical, privacy, immigration, or professional advice. Requirements vary by matter, client, and regulator.

Frequently asked questions

What intake gaps show up most often on eval day?

Missing MD referrals, expired insurance cards, incomplete WSIB claim numbers, absent employer letters, and unsigned consent. These force clinicians or reception to chase paperwork when the schedule is full.

Who should own pre-visit completeness review?

Reception or the office manager should validate checklist items before the appointment. Clinicians should start with assessment — not fax reprints and insurance verification.

Does Hivi-X automate insurer follow-up?

Email, yes — up to three automatic reminders per checklist shared by guest link, each naming the missing items. No SMS. Your team follows up on anything left on the missing-item dashboard.
