Overview

What this system is and how it works

The HealthyStart Group Forms System is a dynamic form builder that allows administrators to create patient-facing forms entirely from the Directus CMS — no code changes required. Each form is a multi-step wizard where patients answer one question at a time. Upon submission, a signed PDF evidence document is automatically generated and stored.

Multi-step wizard

One question per screen. Patients focus on each answer without being overwhelmed.

Automatic PDF evidence

A signed PDF is generated on every submission and stored in Directus for download.
