Digital Signatures for Healthcare
On either Word or PDF documents, a physician may use his digital signature license to capture the patient’s electronic/graphical signature and then
countersign and seal the form using his digital signature.
When the patient is ready to sign, the physician right-clicks on the signature
field and selects Sign.
The physician is challenged for his User name and password.
The patient’s signature will be captured using a Tablet PC or mouse.

He right-clicks on his signature field and selects Sign.
After selecting his signature image, he clicks Sign.
