The Kareo Kiosk app eliminates the need for in-office paper intake and allows patients to digitally enter their historical information, fill out medical intake forms, and update basic demographic fields in an electronic format. The information can be reviewed and merged into the patient's chart.

Kareo Kiosk is great for patients who may have missed, forgotten or disregarded the email sent by the practice in advance of their appointment. It also enables practices to easily manage and accommodate walk-in patients.

For the best experience, Kareo Kiosk should be not be used in dark mode. Check the Kareo Kiosk app requirements for supported OS and devices.

Available for Kareo Engage subscribers.
