About Certinal
What is Certinal?
Certinal is a healthcare-focused consent and compliance platform that replaces paper consent, manual intake, and uncontrolled forms with a single, digital system. It captures every consent electronically, legally signs documents, maintains version control, and files records directly to your EHR.
What problem does it solve?
Hospitals and health systems face compliance risks from paper consent, misfiled forms, and undocumented data collection. Certinal bridges three gaps: consent workflows, document signatures, and rights tracking, providing a system of record for healthcare regulatory requirements.
Who is it for?
Built for healthcare organizations—hospitals, primary care networks, and clinics—that need to streamline consent for surgical procedures, clinical trials, telehealth, and data processing while meeting regulations like HIPAA, CMS-0053-F, 21 CFR Part 11, SOC 2 Type II, DPDP, and PDPA.
Real use cases
Certinal helps reduce consent time, improve admissions speed, and reclaim clinician hours. For example, Southeast Asia's largest private hospital achieved 46% faster admissions across 1.1M+ patient journeys; a 70+ hospital network cut onboarding time by 26%.
