The free script

We will write the patient script for one procedure at no cost.

Name the procedure your team explains twice in the same appointment. We write the script, your clinician approves it, and it is yours to keep whether or not you ever make the video.

Here is how the free script works.

There are four steps, and the only one that takes your time is the review.

01

You name one procedure.

Pick the one your team explains twice in the same appointment, or the one patients have never heard of. Tell us who will review the script, because a script nobody reviews has no path to a video.

It costs you a few minutes.
02

We write the patient script.

It is written in plain language, in the order patients ask their questions, from the material you already hand out. You receive it as words on a page within five business days of the brief call.

It arrives within five business days.
03

Your clinician edits and approves it.

They cut anything they do not recognize and change anything they would say differently. Nothing is produced until they have approved every word.

Approval is where responsibility for the content sits.
04

You keep the script either way.

It is yours whether or not you make the video. If you do, production takes days, because the slow part is already done.

There is nothing to sign.

This is what a finished script becomes.

A patient who has been told to expect a knee replacement has usually never heard of this procedure. This film is the ninety seconds that makes them ask about it. The script for this film was approved by the practice's own clinician before a frame was produced.

Press play to watch it.

The sound is off when it starts, because this film is built to be understood on a phone in a waiting room with the volume down.

Length

Written for
Patients with knee osteoarthritis who have been told their next step is a replacement.

This is what we wrote for them.

We wrote the script in the order a patient actually asks the questions, rather than the order a clinician would teach them. It opens on the knee pain they already have, names the procedure, explains what the treatment involves, and finishes on what the week afterwards looks like. Nothing in it promises an outcome that the practice’s own consent material does not support.

This is how the clinician reviewed it.

The interventional cardiologist read the script as a document and signed it off before a single frame was produced. That order matters commercially as well as clinically: changing a sentence in a script costs nothing, and changing it after a film is finished costs the film.

Where it runs. It sits beside the condition page on the practice’s own site, it plays in the waiting room, and a vertical cut of it runs on social. Read the whole story of this film.

Ask for your script here.

Four short questions are all we need to start. We will reply within one working day with a link to book a twenty minute brief call.

We use what you send here only to write your script and answer you. Nothing is shared with a third party. Please do not send patient information through this form.

What happens next

We reply within one working day with a link to book a twenty minute brief call. On the call we agree the procedure, the reviewer, where the video will run and the date the script arrives.

Who can ask

Any practice, group, hospital or device company in the United States can ask for one free script. The reviewing clinician has to be named, because an unreviewed script has no path to a video.
