Hey Tabflows — set up user-initiated new patient onboarding from Hint to Elation. When I choose a new membership record, prepare the chart in Elation with demographics, plan, and primary provider pre-filled. Draft a welcome message and intake forms via Spruce, and prepare completed forms for the chart. Gather scheduling context so the clinic can offer available slots and complete the first visit appointment. Stage a task for whoever runs onboarding with the patient context.
