Consent to Telehealth

Telehealth is a mode of delivering health care services via communication technologies to facilitate diagnosis, consultation, treatment, education, care management, and self-management of an individual's healthcare. The purpose of this consent form is to provide you with information about telehealth and to obtain your informed consent to the use of telehealth in the delivery of healthcare and/or mental health services to you by doctors, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and/or mental health professionals ("Providers") using the online platforms owned and operated by Primetide and/or its affiliates and subsidiaries.

You are reviewing and acknowledging this Telehealth Consent Form because you are seeking Services from Primetide utilizing telehealth technologies.

Treatment-Specific Consent

By clicking "I consent to telehealth" you understand and agree to the following:

1. I understand that Primetide offers telehealth visits, which are conducted through videoconferencing, telephonic, and asynchronous technology and my Provider will not be present in the room with me.
2. I am consenting to Primetide importing and accessing my medical records and medication list, including prescription records.
3. To protect the confidentiality of my health information, I agree to undertake my telehealth visit in a private location, and I understand that my Provider will similarly be in a private location.
4. I understand there are potential risks to the use of telehealth technology, including but not limited to interruptions, delays, unauthorized access, other technical difficulties, data processing errors, documentation inaccuracies, recording failures, and ambient listening inaccuracies.
5. I understand that my telehealth visit may involve the use of automated technologies for various purposes, including but not limited to transcription of conversations, analysis of medical information, clinical decision support, quality assurance, and improvement of telehealth services.
6. I understand that, as part of my care, my Provider may use automated tools to assist with analyzing medical data or records, supporting clinical decision making, generating summaries or documentation, or recommending potential diagnoses or treatment options. These tools are intended to support, not replace, the professional judgment of my Provider.
7. I understand that my telehealth visit may be recorded (audio and/or video) for purposes including but not limited to quality assurance, provider training, clinical documentation, and care coordination.
8. I understand that ambient listening technologies may be used during my telehealth visit to capture relevant clinical information.
9. I understand that in some cases, my Provider might be a nurse practitioner or a physician assistant and not a doctor.
10. I understand that I could seek an in-office visit rather than obtain care from a Provider, and I am choosing to participate in a telehealth visit with a Provider.
11. I understand that while using telehealth technologies may benefit me, no such benefits or specific results are guaranteed, and my condition may not improve.
12. I agree that any information I provide as part of any telehealth visit is accurate, true, and complete.
13. I understand that my Provider may determine that a telehealth visit is not appropriate for me due to my particular health concern or for other reasons related to my health status.
14. I understand that participating in a telehealth visit is not a guarantee that I will be given a prescription, and that the decision as to whether a prescription is appropriate for my condition will be made in the professional judgment of my Provider.
15. I understand that while the Platform may make available access to certain pharmacy or diagnostic lab services, I may request to use any pharmacy or lab of my preference.
16. I understand that I am responsible for payment of any amounts due and owing resulting from my telehealth visit.
17. I understand that Providers do not address medical emergencies via the Platform.

I understand that:
