Who this template is for

Acupuncture Intake Form is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in healthcare & clinical.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 25 questions across 3 screens.
  • Mobile-heavy audiences, thanks to the one-question-per-screen card layout.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 11 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It collects a verified email address so replies and confirmations land.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It records a signature you can keep as proof of agreement.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • Conditional logic hides 3 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 3 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.
  • Every response is stored, searchable and exportable, so nothing depends on one person's inbox.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 3 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features conditional validation: if “Have you received acupuncture before?” is Yes, “Previous acupuncture experience” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Any bleeding concerns or blood-thinning medication?” is Yes, “Bleeding concerns to review” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Do you have an implanted electronic device?” is Yes, “Device information for the practitioner” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 3 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

About this template

People often arrive for acupuncture with several concerns but little sense of which details will help the first conversation. This intake organizes their account without asking them to diagnose themselves. Contact details and appointment preferences come first, followed by the main concern, its duration and the everyday activities it affects. Previous acupuncture experience gives the practitioner context for explaining what an appointment involves and discussing expectations. The health section invites relevant diagnoses, medications, supplements and sensitivities, with separate prompts for bleeding concerns and implanted devices that may need discussion when planning care. A private-conversation option prevents a required public-facing answer from becoming a barrier to booking. Sleep, energy and other priorities can be described in the patient's own words rather than reduced to a promised treatment outcome. The closing acknowledgment permits an intake discussion and makes clear that any procedure requires its own explanation and consent. It is designed for acupuncture clinics arranging an initial assessment, not for emergency triage, treatment selection or an automated decision about whether acupuncture is appropriate. Clinic staff should review unanswered questions before confirming the scope and timing of the visit.

Driven by “Have you received acupuncture before?”

  • Makes answers required

    If “Have you received acupuncture before?” is Yes, “Previous acupuncture experience” becomes required before the form can be submitted.

Driven by “Any bleeding concerns or blood-thinning medication?”

  • Makes answers required

    If “Any bleeding concerns or blood-thinning medication?” is Yes, “Bleeding concerns to review” becomes required before the form can be submitted.

Set it up step by step

  1. 1

    Tailor the screening prompts

    Ask the treating practitioner to select questions relevant to the services actually offered.

  2. 2

    Offer a private discussion route

    Tell patients how they can share sensitive information directly with the practitioner.

  3. 3

    Read the narrative before the visit

    Use symptom duration and daily impact to prepare questions rather than assigning a diagnosis from the response.

  4. 4

    Separate intake from procedure consent

    Explain the proposed approach and obtain any needed procedure consent during the clinical conversation.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Using a symptom answer to automatically recommend treatment.
  • Assuming prior acupuncture experience means no explanation is needed.
  • Publishing screening questions without arranging timely practitioner review.

Frequently asked questions

Does submitting a preferred date reserve a visit?

No. Coordinate availability separately, using Appointment Request Form if you want a dedicated scheduling request.
