# Automating Forms and Assessments for Group Programs

Attach Forms and Assessments to a Group Program and Wellifiy sends them to each enrolled patient automatically at **Commencement** and **Completion**. This is ideal for collecting baseline data, consent, and outcome measures such as the K10 or DASS-21 without your team needing to send anything manually.

---

#### 📍 Where to Set This Up

Go to: **Group Programs → \[select your program\] → Overview tab**

Scroll to the bottom of the tab. You'll find two sections:

- **Commencement Forms / Assessments**
- **Completion Forms / Assessments**

---

#### 📥 Adding a Form or Assessment

1. Click **+ Add Form** or **+ Add Assessment** under the relevant section
2. Search for and select the item from the list
3. Repeat to attach as many items as you need — each section can hold multiple Forms and Assessments

To remove an item, click the 🗑 trash icon beside it.

---

#### ⏰ When Each Trigger Fires

- **Commencement** — sent on the morning of each patient's individual **Start Date**, which is set when the patient is enrolled in the program. This is per patient, not the program's overall start date, so patients joining a rolling program each receive their commencement items at the right time.
- **Completion** — sent when the patient's status in the Group Program is changed to **Completed**.

---

#### 👀 What Happens Next

Once attached:

- Patients are notified when a commencement or completion item is assigned to them
- They complete it in the **Patient App** or **Patient Web Portal**
- Completed items appear under the patient's **Docs & Forms** or **Assessments** section, where Team Members can track completion

Only patients enrolled in the program receive these items.

#### 🧩 Common Use Cases

| Goal | Recommended Tool |
| --- | --- |
| Collect baseline mental health data | Assessment (e.g. K10, DASS-21) |
| Consent or intake | Form |
| Post-program feedback | Form |
| Measure outcome change | Pre/post Assessment |

---

#### 💡 Best Practices

- Commencement items are tied to each patient's **Start Date**, which is required when enrolling a patient as **Booked** — double-check it's correct before the program begins
- You can update the attached Forms and Assessments at any time before they're triggered
- For a one-off or mid-program send, use [Bulk Send Form or Assessment to All Patients in a Group Program](https://support.wellifiy.com/en-au/knowledge-hub/bulk-send-form-or-assessment-to-all-patients-in-a-group-program?hsLang=en-au) instead — it sends the item immediately and doesn't affect the Commencement or Completion triggers
