Consent to Telehealth
Last modified: November 7, 2024
We provide websites and applications through which you can obtain an online visit with an independent, licensed healthcare professional (a “Provider”) and mail-order pharmacy services for any medications prescribed to you (collectively, the “Services”). The Services constitute a form of telehealth, which involves the delivery of healthcare services using electronic communications between a healthcare provider and a patient who are not in the same physical location. We believe that telehealth has the potential to provide a number of benefits, including convenient, discreet, access to care and affordable care. Telehealth may be used for diagnosis, treatment, follow-up and/or patient education. Telehealth may include, but is not limited to:
- Electronic transmission of medical records, photo images, personally identifiable information, protected health information or other data between a patient and a Provider;
- Interactions between a patient and a Provider via audio, video and/or asynchronous data communications, such as secure messaging and email; and
- Use of data from remote monitoring devices, medical devices, and sound or video files.
The websites, applications, and information systems used in the Services incorporate network and software security protocols to protect the privacy, security, and integrity of your health information.
Possible Benefits of Telemedicine:
- Telehealth can make accessing medical care easier, more efficient, and less expensive.
- You can obtain medical care and treatment at times that are convenient for you.
- You can interact with providers without the necessity of an in-office appointment or be restricted by geography.
Possible Limitations of Telehealth:
- Information transmitted to your Provider may not be sufficient to allow for appropriate medical decision making or your Provider may not be able to provide medical treatment for your condition via telehealth, and you may be required to seek alternative care.
- The inability of your Provider to conduct certain tests or assess vital signs in person may in some cases prevent the Provider from diagnosing or treating you or identifying that you need urgent medical care.
- Your medical care could be delayed due to technological failures that interrupt the Services.
- Data security protocols or safeguards could fail and cause a breach of your identified health information.
- Due to the nature of the Services and regulatory requirements in certain jurisdictions, your treatment options, especially pertaining to certain prescriptions, may be limited.
