Connect a patient with your code
Give a patient your personal connect code so they can join and sign your data-sharing agreement in the app, in one step, without waiting on an email.
Every clinician has a personal connect code. A patient enters it in the Pippa app to connect with you and sign your data-sharing agreement in one step, right there in the app. No emailed link, no waiting. They then appear on your roster with the agreement already signed.
This is the fastest way to add a patient. You can still add a patient by email when you prefer to send the agreement yourself.
Set up your code once
Open the roster and find the Your connect code card at the top.
Your signature and photo are captured a single time and reused for each consent a patient signs against your code. The audit record for each patient still captures the exact agreement text and both signatures, the same as the email flow.
What the patient does
In the Pippa app the patient goes to Settings → Data sharing → Have a code from your provider?, enters your code, reviews the agreement, and signs it with their name, signature, and a photo. As soon as they sign, you can see their data.
If the patient is under 18 and their account was set up by a guardian, the app does not let the teen sign. Instead the agreement is emailed to their guardian to approve, and the patient connects once the guardian signs.
Only you get access
A connect code creates a per-agreement link between you and that one patient. It does not share their data with anyone else at your institution. Another clinician who wants to see the same patient needs the patient to enter their code and sign a separate agreement. This is the same per-clinician consent model used everywhere else in Pippa.
Rotating or turning off your code
A patient can stop sharing at any time from Settings, and you can remove a patient from your roster. Either one ends your access right away, exactly as with an emailed agreement.
