You must pay the pharmacy for the cost of your medication(s). Supplemental terms and conditions or documents that may be posted on the Website from time to time, such as our Privacy Policy, Notice of Privacy Practices, Consent to Telehealth, Prescription Policy and Refund Policy are hereby expressly incorporated into this Agreement by reference.

The information provided on the Website is not intended for distribution to or use by any person or entity in any jurisdiction or country where such distribution or use would be contrary to law or regulation or which would subject Company to any registration requirement within such jurisdiction or country. Accordingly, those persons who choose to access the Website from other locations do so on their own initiative and are solely responsible for compliance with local laws, if and to the extent that local laws are applicable. Users not located in approved locations will not be permitted to register for the Website or use the Company Services.

 

All users who are under the age of 18 are not permitted to register for the Website or use the Company Services.

 

You may not assign, transfer, or delegate the Terms of Use or any part thereof without Company’s prior written consent. Company may freely transfer, assign, or delegate all or any part of the Terms of Use, and any rights or duties hereunder or thereunder. The Terms of Use will be binding upon and take effect to the benefit of the heirs, successors, and permitted assignees of the parties.

 

YOU ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THIS AGREEMENT BY ACKNOWLEDGING SUCH ACCEPTANCE DURING THE REGISTRATION PROCESS (IF APPLICABLE) AND ALSO BY CONTINUING TO USE THE WEBSITE. YOU AGREE TO REVIEW THE TERMS OF USE EACH TIME YOU ACCESS THIS WEBSITE SO THAT YOU MAY BE AWARE OF ANY CHANGES.  IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ABIDE BY THIS AGREEMENT, OR TO MODIFICATIONS THAT COMPANY MAY MAKE TO THIS AGREEMENT IN THE FUTURE, DO NOT USE OR ACCESS OR CONTINUE TO USE OR ACCESS THE COMPANY SERVICES OR THE WEBSITE.

 

THIS IS NOT FOR EMERGENCIES  

 

DIAL “911” IMMEDIATELY IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING AN EMERGENCY.  The Providers are not available for medical emergencies or urgent medical problems and the Services to be provided do not include medical emergencies or urgent medical problems. You should never delay seeking care from an in-person health care provider based on any information provided on the Website and in the event of an emergency. If you are advised to seek care with an in-person health care provider immediately you should do so.

 

PURCHASES; PAYMENT

 

Medical Group will bill you through an online billing account. You agree to pay Medical Group all charges at the prices then in effect for the Services, and you authorize Medical Group to charge your chosen payment provider for any such purchases. You agree to make payment using that selected payment method. Pre-approval may be obtained for an amount up to the amount of the payment. Medical Group reserves the right to correct any errors or mistakes made in pricing or cancel an order placed for a Service listed at an incorrect price, even if payment has already been requested or received. If your transaction is cancelled and your account has already been charged, a credit will promptly be issued to your account. Sales tax will be added to the sales price of purchases as deemed required by Medical Group. Prices may change at any time without notice. All payments shall be in U.S. dollars.

 

 

 

DUTY OF CARE

 

WHEN THE DUTY OF CARE BEGINS

The Provider will take responsibility for your care only after you have answered all of the required health questions fully and truthfully, created an account in your name, provided any necessary photo(s) and identifying information, made payment, and the doctor has subsequently reviewed your request for treatment, the answers to the health questions that you have completed, any photos, and any other information you have provided, and then subsequently determined that you are a good candidate for our telehealth services. The duty of care does not begin at the point of you answering questions or making payment but at the point at which the Provider accepts the duty of care.

The Provider has the right to refuse to take responsibility for your care if the Provider makes a professional judgment that you are not a good candidate for this service, and you should instead seek medical attention from an in-person health care provider immediately. Making a request for treatment (by completing a visit on the Website and making payment) or sending a message through the Website does not create a duty of care or create a doctor-patient relationship.

There may be a delay before a Provider reviews your request for treatment and/or any messages you send. It is your responsibility to seek medical care immediately if your condition worsens while waiting for treatment.

NO MEDICAL ADVICE OR SERVICES

The only content on the Website that constitutes professional medical advice is the personalized messages the Provider sends you (once you have completed the health questions and made payment, and the Provider has subsequently taken responsibility for your care) and any content that the Provider links to in such messages. NO OTHER CONTENT ON THE WEBSITE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO TEXT, COPY, AUDIO, VIDEO, PHOTOGRAPHS, ILLUSTRATIONS, GRAPHICS AND OTHER VISUALS CONSTITUTES PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT, OR RECOMMENDATIONS OF ANY KIND AND IS FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. THE INFORMATION PROVIDED IN OUR HEALTH QUESTIONS ABOUT WHO WE CAN AND CANNOT TREAT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE.

YOU SHOULD NEVER DISREGARD OR DELAY SEEKING PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE OR TREATMENT BECAUSE OF SOMETHING YOU HAVE READ ON THE WEBSITE.

The Services provided by Medical Group should not replace your relationship with your primary care provider or any other in-person health care providers. You must continue to follow up with your primary care provider after any treatment provided through the Medical Group, so that you receive ongoing care for all of your medical conditions, individual needs and follow-up care for any condition treated. Always consult your primary care provider or other in-person health care provider before discontinuing or modifying any treatment provided.

 

The Company does not make any representations or warranties about the training or skill of any Providers who deliver medical care via the Website. You will be assigned a Provider based on availability, the state(s) in which the Provider is licensed to practice medicine, and the state in which you are located. You are ultimately responsible for deciding to accept the services of your particular Provider.

 

RISKS OF USING OUR SERVICE

 

For a more detailed explanation of the risks of using our telehealth service, please review our Consent to Telehealth document.

 

By using the Services on through the Website, you acknowledge that you have read and fully understand our Consent to Telehealth, Privacy Policy, Notice of Privacy Practices, Prescription Policy, Refund Policy, and this Terms of Use agreement. You acknowledge the potential risks of using our service. Risks include but are not limited to the following: due to the nature of telemedicine, the Providers cannot perform an in-person exam which could possibly limit the Provider’s ability to accurately diagnose and treat your condition; the photos you send to the Provider may not be of adequate quality or resolution to properly diagnose your condition, leading to misdiagnosis and inappropriate treatment; technological or other failure leading to delays in care (referred to in section below titled “FORCE MAJEURE”); lack of access to your complete medical record which includes your allergies, complete medication list, past medical history, past surgical history, family history and social history may result in interactions with, or adverse or allergic reactions to the medication(s) we prescribe, or other medical errors; failure of security measures to protect your Personally-Identifying Information or Protected Health Information causing this information to be released to unauthorized person(s).

 

 

 

 

NOT A PHARMACY OR INSURANCE PRODUCT

 

Medical Group is not a pharmacy or prescription fulfillment center, nor do we endorse any specific Provider, pharmacy, medication or product. Any recommended prescription(s) will be chosen by the treating Provider and sent to the pharmacy of your choice. You must pay the pharmacy for any of the medications prescribed.

 

The Company is not offering an insurance product, and the money paid to the Medical Group for an encounter is for that encounter only, and not an insurance premium. You cannot submit this medical fee for insurance reimbursement. We do not offer medical insurance policies, so you must pay for a separate insurance policy if desired.

 

PRESCRIPTION POLICY

 

The conditions we can treat are limited to the ones listed on the Website. Company does not guarantee a prescription will be written by the Provider. The Provider will only treat patients when the “standard of care” can safely be delivered. The Provider will prescribe medications and amounts of medications they deem appropriate and in accordance with state and federal law when applicable. The Provider will not prescribe any controlled substances, including but not limited to opioids, benzodiazepines, cannabinoids, or amphetamines, or any medications they believe may have abuse potential. Any request for prescriptions for these medications will be denied, and the Provider has the right to deny care if they believe the service is being misused or abused. Any prescriptions written for you by the Provider are to be used by you only and not given to any other individual. You acknowledge that you will read all product information and labels, you will ask for advice from the pharmacist or a physician if you have any questions or concerns about the medication(s), and you will follow any advice given to you by the pharmacist or physician.

You are permitted to use the Website only on a device located in the States where we operate, which is subject to change based on where our Providers are licensed and where state law permits our telehealth services. By using our Service you acknowledge that you are legally permitted to use our Service under United States, state and local law. Accessing the site or using our Service outside the United States or in a state or jurisdiction where the content of the Website or the use of our Service is illegal or not offered by us is strictly prohibited.

DISPUTES

 

With Company

With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to informal dispute resolution or arbitration (as set forth below), you agree not to commence or prosecute any action in connection therewith other than in the state and federal courts located in Suffolk County, State of New York, and you hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens with respect to, venue and jurisdiction in such state and federal courts. Application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is excluded from this Agreement. Additionally, application of the Uniform Computer Information Transaction Act (UCITA) is excluded from this Agreement. In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to the Website or Company Services be instituted more than two (2) years after the cause of action arose.

 

  1. Informal Resolution. To expedite resolution and control the cost of any dispute, controversy or claim related to this Agreement ("Dispute"), you and Company agree to first attempt to negotiate any Dispute (except those Disputes expressly provided below) informally for at least thirty (30) days before initiating any arbitration or court proceeding. Such informal negotiations commence upon written notice from one person to the other.

 

  1. Binding Arbitration. If you and Company are unable to resolve a Dispute through informal negotiations, either you or Company may elect to have the Dispute (except those Disputes expressly excluded below) finally and exclusively resolved by binding arbitration. Any election to arbitrate by one party shall be final and binding on the other. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT ABSENT THIS PROVISION, YOU WOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A JURY TRIAL. The arbitration shall be commenced and conducted under the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") and, where appropriate, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes ("AAA Consumer Rules"), both of which are available at the AAA website www.adr.org. The determination of whether a Dispute is subject to arbitration shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act and determined by a court rather than an arbitrator. Your arbitration fees and your share of arbitrator compensation shall be governed by the AAA Consumer Rules and, where appropriate, limited by the AAA Consumer Rules. If such costs are determined by the arbitrator to be excessive, Company will pay all arbitration fees and expenses. The arbitration may be conducted in person, through the submission of documents, by phone or online. The arbitrator will make a decision in writing, but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. The arbitrator must follow applicable law, and any award may be challenged if the arbitrator fails to do so. Except where otherwise required by the applicable AAA rules or applicable law, the arbitration will take place in Suffolk County, State of New York. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, you and Company may litigate in court to compel arbitration, stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator.

 

  1. Restrictions. You and Company agree that any arbitration shall be limited to the Dispute between Company and you individually. To the full extent permitted by law, (1) no arbitration shall be joined with any other; (2) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class-action basis or to utilize class action procedures; and (3) there is no right or authority for any Dispute to be brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public or any other persons.

 

  1. Exceptions to Informal Negotiations and Arbitration. You and Company agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning informal negotiations and binding arbitration: (1) any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of any of your or Company’s intellectual property rights; (2) any Dispute related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, invasion of privacy or unauthorized use; and (3) any claim for injunctive relief. If this Section is found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor Company will elect to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of this Section found to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court of competent jurisdiction within the courts listed for jurisdiction above, and you and Company agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of that court.
