Nicklaus Children’s Hospital Selects Interlace Health’s Electronic Informed Consent Solution
Founded in 1950 by Variety Clubs International, Nicklaus Children’s Hospital is South Florida’s only licensed specialty hospital exclusively for children, with nearly 800 attending physicians and more than 475 pediatric subspecialists.

The Children’s Hospital will implement Interlace Health’s Electronic Informed Consent Solution to complement their Cerner EHR environment.
Informed Consent by Interlace Health does away with paper, clipboards, scanners – and even electronic signature devices. Staff can quickly and easily select the correct form within the patient’s EHR, so it’s always accurate. Content can be standardized, and fields marked as required, reducing risk and ensuring compliance. The patient reads and signs the form on a tablet or computer, at the bedside or office.
Staff then self-signs the form and date-time stamps are automatically applied. The signed consent is archived into the EHR – making documentation instantly visible to the care team.
