Nope. Only once is enough. A form needs to be filled out only during the registration of the patient. They don’t need to fill out another unless there are any significant changes in their personal or medical history.
Adult Counseling Intake Form
It’s good to have adult counseling intake forms in your counseling center. Issue these to adult clients setting up appointments for the first time! It should give you a general idea of them when they finally meet you. This can be issued online, too, if you have an online registration infrastructure!

Commonly asked questions
Yes. Counselors are expected to follow HIPAA privacy guidelines and privacy laws mandated by their location, so they are required by law to keep a patient’s information confidential. The only times they can share it is if their patient allows them to share the information with a certain person or party or if they are required by law to disclose the information for any legal cases that may require it.
That depends on the intake form. Some intake forms are longer than others, so it’ll take longer for people to accomplish those, but generally, it takes between ten to thirty minutes to accomplish one.
