Nature of Telehealth Services
Telehealth involves the use of electronic communications to allow a healthcare provider to assess, diagnose, and treat a patient remotely. The types of communication methods used may include video calls, phone calls, and secure messaging.
Risks and Benefits
Telehealth can provide significant benefits, such as access to healthcare services without the need for in-person visits. However, it also comes with risks like delays in evaluation or treatment due to technological issues or lack of in-person examination.
Informed Consent
By consenting to telehealth, you acknowledge that telehealth services are provided by licensed medical providers, and joey serves as a platform to facilitate these consultations. You have the right to withdraw consent at any time.

Your health information will be protected through HIPAA-compliant systems, such as PracticeQ and AWS. All telehealth sessions are confidential, but you are responsible for maintaining the privacy of your communication device (e.g., phone, computer).
Follow-Up Care
Following your telehealth consultation, the provider may issue prescriptions or provide recommendations. You are responsible for following the healthcare provider's instructions.
