Frequently asked questions
Does a med spa or salon need HIPAA compliance?
It depends on your services, state rules, and whether you handle protected health information — medical director oversight, treatment records, and insurance involvement all matter. Many aesthetic and beauty practices choose HIPAA-grade tools regardless, because clients disclose health conditions on intake forms. When in doubt, ask a healthcare attorney.
What's the cheapest way to get a signed BAA?
Among the tools compared here, GlossGenius includes a BAA on its $48/mo Gold plan. Jotform requires its $99–129/mo Gold plan, and suite products (Mangomint, Jane) bundle it into much larger subscriptions. Consentify includes the BAA on Elite ($19.99/mo) and Empire — the lowest-priced BAA among these tools, signed electronically in the app.
Should clients sign on their own phone or on a practice tablet?
Their own phone, when possible: forms get completed before the appointment, nothing needs sanitizing between clients, and no one queues at a kiosk. Look for QR-code or link-based signing with no app install — a shared tablet is a good fallback for walk-ins.
Can I keep my existing consent forms when switching tools?
Usually your consent language is the asset — it came from your lawyer or medical director. Tools with AI import (Consentify converts PDFs and even photos of paper forms) preserve your exact wording; template-based tools mean adapting your language into their format.
