TERMS & CONDITIONS

DISCLAIMER

MissionMed Wellness is strictly a telehealth platform. This website does not provide medical advice. Video conferencing technology is not the same as a direct patient/health care provider visit and has limitations in regard to the physical examination. Telehealth consultation has potential benefits, including easier access to care, decreasing costs, and allowing visits to be performed from the comfort of my home. It also has potential risks including interruptions, unauthorized access, and technical difficulties.

MissionMed Wellness is not an Emergency Service. In the event of an emergency or urgent medical issue please call 911 or visit the nearest emergency department or urgent care facility.

MissionMed Wellness does not sell any medical/health products or work with any vendors at this time.

COMMUNICATION

The preferred method of communication is by our contact forms, HIPPA-compliant Patient Portal, text and email. Transmitting confidential health information by e-mail or text, however, has a number of risks: E-mail can be immediately broadcast worldwide and be received by many intended and unintended recipients; recipients can forward e-mail messages to other recipients without the original sender(s) permission or knowledge; users can easily copy information. The practitioner / practice will endeavor to read e-mail promptly. However, MissionMed Wellness can provide no assurance that the e-mail will be read immediately. Therefore, e-mail must never be used in a medical emergency. Phone calls are generally reserved for Direct Primary Care (DPC) members or exceptional circumstances, as the provider is often with patients.
