Thank you for sharing this with us. Your responses will be added to your confidential patient file and reviewed by your practitioner before your visit to help personalize your treatment plan.

What’s included

  • AI follow-ups

    Adaptive probes on open-ended answers that pull out detail a static form would miss.

  • Attention checks

    Built-in safeguards against rushed answers and low-quality respondents.

  • AI-drafted copy

    Wording, ordering, and branching written by the AI — tuned to your research goal.

  • Auto report

    Themes, quotes, and a plain-English summary write themselves once responses come in.

How it compares

We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.

Why this template

  • Goes beyond a static checklist by including an AI follow-up interview that reconstructs the story behind the patient's main complaint — when it started, what makes it better or worse, and how it's affecting them — the way a practitioner would probe in an initial consult.
  • Combines structured intake essentials (symptom duration, severity rating, current medications/herbs/supplements, contraindication screening for pacemakers/pregnancy/bleeding disorders, needle comfort) with open-ended narrative capture in one flow.
  • Screens for stress levels and prior treatments tried alongside a matrix of current conditions, giving practitioners a fuller clinical picture before the first visit.
  • Uses transparent, auditable prompts for the AI follow-up and can auto-generate a pre-visit report, rather than leaving the practitioner to manually parse free-text answers.

Jotform

Acupuncture Intake Form Template

A ready-to-use, customizable intake form built specifically for acupuncture practices, covering standard fields like patient details and health history. It's a static form builder template rather than an interview — there's no mechanism to ask a patient a dynamic follow-up about their specific complaint. Strong choice for clinics that just need a clean digital paperwork replacement.

What it does well

  • Purpose-built for acupuncture practices specifically, not a generic medical intake
  • Easy to customize within Jotform's drag-and-drop form builder
  • Likely integrates with Jotform's broader forms/e-signature ecosystem

Where it falls short

  • Static field-based form with no adaptive follow-up questioning on the patient's presenting complaint
  • No published quality-scoring or automated report generation from responses
  • No transparent prompt/methodology documentation since there's no AI component

Typeform

Acupuncture Intake Form Template

A conversational, one-question-at-a-time intake template in Typeform's signature style, well-suited to a friendlier patient intake experience than a traditional form. It still relies on pre-set question logic rather than a real-time AI probing the patient's story. Good for clinics prioritizing a polished, on-brand intake feel over deeper narrative capture.

What it does well

  • Conversational, guided question flow that feels less clinical than a paper form
  • Typeform's polished design and branding customization
  • Simple to deploy and share as a pre-visit intake link

Where it falls short

  • No adaptive AI interview to dig into the story behind the main complaint — only fixed question branching
  • No automated per-response quality scoring or auto-generated clinical summary report
  • No published prompt transparency since responses aren't AI-interpreted
