Background: Obtaining explicit consent from patients to use their remnant biological samples and deidentified clinical data for research is essential for advancing precision medicine.

Objective: We aimed to describe the operational implementation and scalability of an electronic universal consent process that was used to power an institutional precision health biobank across a large academic health system.

Methods: The University of California, Los Angeles, implemented the use of innovative electronic consent videos as the primary recruitment tool for precision health research.

Background: Developing innovative, efficient, and institutionally scalable biospecimen consent for remnant tissue that meets the National Institutes of Health consent guidelines for genomic and molecular analysis is essential for precision medicine efforts in cancer.

Objective: This study aims to pilot-test an electronic video consent that individuals could complete largely on their own.

Methods: The University of California, Los Angeles developed a video consenting approach designed to be comprehensive yet fast (around 5 minutes) for providing universal consent for remnant biospecimen collection for research.
