# How do I create a custom form (consent, instructions, referral)?

> Write your own form once as a free form template, then fill it in and sign it for any patient.

**Short answer:** create the form once in **Settings → Templates → Free Forms** → **New**, then add it to a patient from the **Chart** with **+** → **Patient Form**.

**1. Create the template**

Go to **Settings → Templates → Free Forms** and click **New**. Give it a **Name** and write the text.

**2. Add patient details and options**

Use **Dynamic Values** to insert details filled in for each patient, such as **Patient Name** and **Date**. Tick **Signature Required** if the patient must sign, and **QR Code Visible** to let them sign on their phone. Save the template.

**3. Use it for a patient**

In the patient's **Chart**, click **+** → **Patient Form** and choose your form in **Free Forms**.

**4. Create and sign**

Click **Create**, or **Create & View** to sign it now with **Sign**.

> [!TIP]
>
> On the **Free Forms** tab, **Get Default List** → **Fill Items** adds a ready-made set of forms for your specialty that you can edit.

> [!WARNING]
>
> A signed form can't be edited. Check the text before the patient signs.
