Telehealth Consent
This page explains how online care works, how privacy and confidentiality are handled, what the limits are, and what patients agree to before care begins.
QuickVisitMD provides online physician care for selected common adult concerns. The service may rely on intake responses, images, messages, and other electronically submitted information, and may include follow-up questions before a final treatment decision is made.
The patient must confirm identity and current physical location at the time care is requested and when asked again during the care process. This service is intended only for adults physically located in Virginia when the request is made and when the physician acts on it.
Online care is not appropriate for every concern. The physician may determine that the patient needs in-person, urgent, or emergency evaluation instead of online treatment.
The goal of the service is physician evaluation and treatment of selected common ailments when appropriate. Treatment is not guaranteed, and non-controlled prescriptions may be issued only when clinically appropriate.
Electronic systems are used to collect, transmit, and store information. QuickVisitMD is designed to use secure systems, protect patient privacy, and treat health information as confidential in line with applicable HIPAA obligations, while also recognizing that no electronic system is entirely risk free.
The visit, messages, images, and related documents may become part of the patient's medical record and may be retained and disclosed as permitted or required by law.
Patients may ask questions before proceeding and may choose not to continue with the service. Consent may be withdrawn by stopping the request process or contacting the practice, but withdrawal does not affect information already collected or actions already taken before the withdrawal is received.
