Telemedicine Information

1. Nature, Benefits, Risks, and Alternatives

Telemedicine uses electronic communications, video, audio, messaging, digital intake forms, and remote technology to allow providers and patients in different locations to communicate and provide healthcare services.

• Potential benefits include convenience, easier access, reduced travel, faster administrative processing, and digital documentation.
• Risks include technology failures, incomplete information, limited physical examination, delays in care, privacy/security risks, and provider refusal to prescribe or proceed remotely.
• Alternatives include in-person care, primary care, specialist consultation, urgent care, emergency care, lifestyle-only programs, and other treatments recommended by a provider.

2. Patient Responsibilities and State Availability

You must provide accurate information, disclose relevant medical history and medications when asked by the provider, be physically located in the state you report during the telemedicine encounter, follow provider instructions, and seek emergency care when needed.

Before the video consultation, Qualiphy obtains the applicable clinical telemedicine consent within its own clinical workflow. During or after the consultation, the patient receives the provider’s identity, license information, and licensing state.

3. Privacy, Prescriptions, and Withdrawal

Telemedicine may involve electronic transmission of health information. Prescriptions are not guaranteed, and providers may require additional information, labs, in-person care, or records. You may withdraw consent by contacting the clinical provider or Vynova Health, although that may affect your ability to receive remote services.
