Telehealth Consent

Last Updated: 2026

I understand that Telehealth is a mode of delivering health care services via communication technologies (e.g., internet or cellphone) to facilitate diagnosis, consultation, treatment, education, care management, and self-management of a patient’s health care. By acknowledging my consent below, I understand and agree to the following:

• I understand that DrTelx and its affiliated professional corporations offer Telehealth consultations, which are conducted through videoconferencing, telephonic, and asynchronous technology, and my Telehealth provider will not be present in the room with me.
• I understand there are potential risks to the use of Telehealth technology, including but not limited to interruptions, delays, unauthorized access, and/or other technical difficulties. I understand that either my Telehealth provider or I can discontinue the Telehealth appointment if the technical connections are not adequate for my visit.
• I understand that I could seek an in-office visit rather than obtain care from a Telehealth provider, and I am choosing to participate in a Telehealth consultation with a DrTelx provider.
• To protect the confidentiality of my health information, I agree to undertake my Telehealth consultation in a private location, and I understand that my Telehealth provider will similarly be in a private location.
• In an emergent situation, I understand that the responsibility of my Telehealth provider may be to direct me to emergency medical services, such as an emergency room.

By acknowledging below, I certify:

• That I have read this form and/or had it explained to me.
• That I understand the risks and benefits of a Telehealth appointment.
• That I have been given the opportunity to ask questions and that such questions have been answered to my satisfaction.

Consent to Text or Email Usage for Appointment Reminders and Other Healthcare Reminders

By signing below, I consent to receive text messages from the practice at my phone number or email to receive appointment reminders and general health reminders and information.

I also acknowledge this means of communication is not considered secure for the transmission of private information.
