Ruana helps you move intake from the front desk to the pre-visit stage. We’ve built software that allows you to create the right forms, connect them to your services, and give patients a simple way to complete their information before they arrive.

Build Your Forms

Create custom digital intake forms or start with ready-made templates. You are free to add questions, consent fields, health history details, or service-specific information your practice needs before the visit.

Send Before the Visit

Send your digital forms to patients before the appointment to collect important information in advance. Patients can complete everything online at their own pace, while your team avoids rushed paperwork at check-in.

Review Patient Details

Access the information from the patient record or appointment view once the form is completed. Practitioners can review key details before the session, prepare with better context, and start the visit with less back-and-forth.

Ruana’s digital intake forms help wellness practices collect the right information before the appointment begins. From custom form creation to secure online completion, each feature is designed to reduce paperwork, save session time, and help practitioners prepare with better context.

Custom Forms

Create Custom Intake Forms

Built around your practice

Add health history fields, lifestyle questions, consent details, liability waivers, or condition-specific sections based on the service or appointment type. While every practice asks different questions, your digital intake forms should not be locked into a generic format.

Build from scratch or start with templates and adjust them to fit your workflow. This gives your team more control over what patients complete before the visit, while keeping the process simple and fully self-service.

Patient Intake Software Built for Different Wellness Practices

Built by wellness practitioners for fellow colleagues, Ruana understands that intake does not look the same in every practice. Whether you collect general information, service preferences, or condition-specific notes, our software helps you create a cleaner intake process before the patient arrives.

Patient Intake Software for Chiropractors

Chiropractic visits often require a detailed health history, pain location, previous injuries, lifestyle factors, and consent forms. Ruana helps chiropractors collect this information before the appointment, so you can review key details earlier and start the visit with better context for treatment and further SOAP notes.

Massage therapists can use Ruana’s intake form software to collect client preferences, pain areas, contraindications, pressure notes, and consent details before the session. This reduces check-in paperwork and helps therapists prepare for a safer, more personalized appointment.

MESSAGE FROM THE FOUNDERS

“We know how frustrating intake can become inside a busy practice. Patients arrive early but still rush through paperwork. Forms come back incomplete, meaning the staff has to ask the same questions again. Practitioners lose time looking for details that should have been ready before the appointment started.

That is why we built Ruana’s patient intake software around the pre-visit experience. Patients can complete forms securely online before they arrive, while your team can review the information from the patient record or appointment view when it matters.

For us, intake is not just about replacing paper forms. It is about helping wellness practices start each visit with better information, less front desk pressure, and a calmer flow for both patients and practitioners.”
