Patient financial responsibility consent

Telehealth involves the use of secure electronic communications, information technology, or other means to enable a healthcare provider at one location, and a patient in another location to share individual patient clinical information for the purpose of consulting with, diagnosing, treating, prescribing, and/or referring the patient to in-person care, as determined clinically appropriate. Telehealth services offered by Form Health Associates (MA), P.C. and the members of its Affiliated Covered Entity (collectively “Form Health Associates,”), Healthy Life Physicians Group Pacific Northwest, P.C., and Form Associates, P.A. (collectively, “Form Health”) may include a patient consultation, diagnosis, treatment recommendation, prescription, and/or a referral to in-person care, as determined clinically appropriate.
