The problem

What breaks when signatures are left to individuals

01

Credential errors

Misstated credentials on clinician email are a professional-standards problem — manual signatures make them inevitable.

02

Facility sprawl

Dozens of campuses and thousands of staff — no IT team can hand-manage that signature surface.

03

Vendor risk

Any tool near clinician email gets a rigorous review. Tools that reroute or store mail rarely survive it.

How it works

From policy to every mailbox

Locked disclaimerApproveM365 · Google · HRISEvery mailbox on-brand
Policy once · deploy everywhere · measure what the outbox actually does
  1. 01

    Sync the clinical roster

    Titles and credentials come from the HR system of record, with department and campus targeting.

  2. 02

    Lock clinical signatures

    Policy-driven editing: clinicians stay on the approved standard; admin staff can have more flexibility.

  3. 03

    Keep PHI out of scope

    Only the signature block is managed. Message content — including anything with PHI — never touches OwnSig.

Capabilities

What OwnSig puts under control for healthcare

HRIS-synced credentials

Titles and credentials from the system of record, with department and campus targeting for templates.

No message access

Signature block only, deployed via native Microsoft 365 / Google Workspace APIs.

Recipient privacy by default

Click analytics store no recipient identifiers, no IPs, and set no cookies — appropriate for patient-facing mail.

Policy-driven editing

Lock clinical signatures; allow administrative staff more flexibility — per feature, per role.

Trust & compliance

HIPAA-conscious by architecture

Because OwnSig never processes message content, PHI stays in your mail platform. Directory data is under a DPA with encryption at rest, audit logging, regional residency, and a published control set for vendor review.

Case study · Multi-hospital health system

An 11,000-employee health system standardised confidentiality notices without touching PHI

Cedar Valley wanted a consistent confidentiality notice on every clinician's email and contact details that referring providers could trust — without a signature vendor ever reading message content. HRIS-synced profiles plus a single owned notice replaced years of 'please update your signature' emails.

Healthcare & Medical — frequently asked

Does OwnSig process PHI?
No. OwnSig manages signature blocks and never routes, stores, or scans message content. Mail stays in your Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace environment.
Can clinician credentials sync automatically?
Yes. Workday/BambooHR/HiBob sync brings titles and credentials from the HR system of record.
Can different facilities have different signatures?
Yes. Templates and campaigns target by department; org templates merge campus, clinic, and contact details.
Is click tracking appropriate for patient emails?
Tracking is server-side with no recipient identifiers or cookies; many health systems disable tracking entirely with one admin toggle.
Will this pass our security review?
The control set is published (RBAC, encryption, audit logs, isolated edge, dedicated cells on Enterprise), with documentation for vendor risk assessments.
