Capture patient and reason
Required: name, DOB, new vs existing patient, reason for visit, preferred date window, best phone. Optional: insurance carrier, current medications, referring physician.
Form template · Doctor appointment
Doctor offices field 30-50 appointment-request calls a day. The form takes the routine ones (checkup, follow-up, prescription refill) off the phone queue so reception can focus on the urgent calls.
Every template is free and fully editable in the drag-drop builder — swap fields, colors, and the button label before you publish.
No server, API route, or SDK — your Doctor Appointment Form posts straight to one endpoint.
Every submission is emailed to you and saved to a searchable dashboard — spam filtered before it reaches you.
It's plain HTML you own — paste the Doctor Appointment Form snippet, swap in your access key, and ship.
Copy and ship
HTML by default — the same field set also renders as React, Next.js, PHP, and cURL in your dashboard. Every variant posts to the same /api/submit endpoint. Replace YOUR_ACCESS_KEY with the key from your dashboard; that's the only edit.

</p>How to add it
To add a Doctor Appointment Form to your site you need three things: a free splitforms access key, the HTML snippet above, and your key pasted into it. No backend, database, or CAPTCHA library — the form posts to one URL and every submission lands in your inbox and dashboard.
Required: name, DOB, new vs existing patient, reason for visit, preferred date window, best phone. Optional: insurance carrier, current medications, referring physician.
Capture insurance carrier and policy / member ID. Front desk runs eligibility before scheduling — surprise denials at the visit damage the patient relationship. Most EHR systems (Epic, Athena, eClinicalWorks) accept eligibility checks via webhook.
Webhook to Twilio — patient gets a text within hours confirming the slot, or offering alternatives. Reception adds to the EHR scheduling module from the form data.
What's included
Doctor offices — primary care, specialty practices, urgent care — handle 30-50 appointment-request calls a day, plus another 30-50 for prescription refills, referrals, and insurance questions. The phone queue eats reception staff. The appointment form captures new vs existing patient, reason for visit, insurance carrier, preferred date / time window, and best contact phone. Reception schedules from the form during slow stretches instead of rushing the calls. New-patient inquiries also need insurance verification before the visit — capturing carrier and policy number upfront lets the office check eligibility before the appointment, which saves billing rework. Webhooks into Athena / DrChrono / eClinicalWorks · NOT HIPAA-compliant out of the box.

Where submissions go
Reply-to is wired to the visitor's email, so one tap on Reply answers them directly — while the built-in honeypot and spam classifier filter out bots before they reach you. Every submission is emailed to your inbox and can forward to a webhook or Slack the moment a visitor hits send.

Testimonials
40 quotes on record — from indie hacks to agency migrations.
“I replaced a Lambda + DynamoDB + SES contact form with six lines of HTML. It took eleven minutes, and the dashboard is better than what I was going to build.”
“We migrated 14 client sites off Formspree in a single weekend. The price is a third of what we paid, the API is more honest, and the spam filter actually works.”
“The webhook payload is signed, idempotent, and well-shaped. It reads like code from a competent team, not a CRUD app held together with duct tape.”
“I stopped reaching for Typeform on small marketing sites. splitforms covers 90% of the use case at none of the bloat.”
“I onboarded our whole agency in an afternoon. The MCP integration meant Cursor literally dropped the form straight into our client repos for us.”
“The free plan gave me 500 submissions before I paid a cent, and Pro is five dollars a month. I've spent more on coffee deciding which backend to use.”
“Spam went from forty junk entries a day to zero, with no reCAPTCHA puzzle ruining the form. The honeypot and time-trap just quietly do their job.”
“Point the form action at one endpoint and you're done. No SDK, no client library, no build step. This is how a form backend should feel.”
“Leads land in Slack the second someone submits, and a copy goes to Google Sheets for the sales team. I wired both up in under ten minutes.”
“I run a static Hugo site on a five-dollar VPS. splitforms gave it a real contact form without me standing up a single server.”
Questions
splitforms is not HIPAA-compliant out of the box — the standard plan doesn't ship a BAA. For real PHI (medical history, diagnoses, treatment), use a HIPAA-compliant form provider (JotForm HIPAA tier, Formstack Healthcare, Paubox Forms). The splitforms form is fine for appointment-request basics (name, phone, reason) but should not collect detailed medical history. Consult your HIPAA security officer.
Most EHRs accept inbound webhooks via Zapier or HL7 / FHIR APIs. Athena and DrChrono have direct API access; Epic typically requires a vendor integration. The form's JSON maps to the EHR's appointment-request fields. Confirm with your EHR vendor before deploying.
Add a 'reason for visit' option of 'prescription refill'. Most practices route refill requests to the nurse / MA queue, not the appointment scheduler. Webhook branches on this field to the right team. Alternatively, route refills to the patient portal directly — federal law (CARES Act) requires patient portal access for clinical communication.
Add an urgency field. Same-day requests should still go via phone — the form is not for emergencies. The form's auto-responder should explicitly say 'for medical emergencies, call 911 or your nearest urgent care'. Liability requires that disclaimer prominently.
