Acknowledgment
By accessing this website, its associated applications, platform, and/or services, you acknowledge that you are over the age of 18 and have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by the terms set forth herein. If you do not or cannot agree with any part of this Consent to Telehealth, you may not access or use the website, applications, platform, or services.

Introduction

Origin46 (collectively, “we,” “our,” “us,” or “Origin46”) is a company that offers a website and related application through which users, clients, or other visitors (collectively, “you” or “your”) may request and obtain online consultations with affiliated, independent, licensed physicians, nurse practitioners, and other provider types (collectively, “Provider” or “Providers”) as managed by our contracted provider network, Ovie Health Group

Services may include consultations, treatment plans, at-home labs, diagnoses, or prescriptions through nationwide local and/or mail-order pharmacies that Origin46 has partnered with for the provision of such services (collectively, “Services”). These Services are provided online via telehealth, which may use synchronous video or voice, asynchronous chat, text (SMS), email, or other secure communication methods. Telehealth may involve the electronic transmission of personal health information such as health records, laboratory findings, photographs, video recordings, or information obtained from remote monitoring devices for proper clinical assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and follow-up.

Potential Benefits of Telehealth

The potential benefits of telehealth include:

• Access to medical care and health education without leaving home.
  
  
• Private diagnosis and treatment at times more convenient to your schedule.
  
  
• Potentially improved clinical outcomes and more affordable care.

Potential Limitations of Telehealth

Telehealth may involve certain risks, including but not limited to:

• Technical failures disrupting or distorting treatment information.
  
  
• Sessions being interrupted or accessed by unauthorized persons.
  
  
• Miscommunication between you and your Provider.
  
  
• Information being overheard by others near you.
  
  
• Electronic communication being intercepted, forwarded, or altered without your knowledge.
  
  

Additionally, regulatory requirements in your state, your medical history, or your presenting condition may limit your ability to obtain certain Services or prescriptions. Telehealth may not provide sufficient information for an accurate diagnosis or treatment, and technology failures may disrupt Services.

Responsibility to Maintain a Primary Care Provider

You are encouraged to consult your local primary care provider and other specialists as needed. Providers through our platform do not replace your local primary care physician or specialists. Maintaining a relationship with your primary care physician is required for care through Origin46.

In a medical emergency, you must call 911 or go to the nearest hospital.

No Guarantee of Results

There is no guarantee that using Origin46 Services or products will result in positive outcomes. Discuss alternative treatment options with your primary care physician or a qualified specialist before and during treatment. You must notify Providers of any adverse effects or unexpected physical, mental, or emotional responses to treatment.

Notification of Changes

You agree to promptly notify Providers of any changes that may affect eligibility for Services, including pregnancy, breastfeeding, or other treatments. You are responsible for disclosing all medications, lab tests, and assessments received elsewhere and notifying other healthcare professionals of any Services or tests obtained through Origin46.

Referrals

Some conditions may require in-person care. Providers may refer you to a local medical professional or your primary care physician if your condition cannot be treated through telehealth.

Insurance Use and Financial Responsibility

Origin46 does not accept insurance. You are financially responsible for Services rendered. We do not participate in or accept Medicare, Medicaid, or Tricare insurance.
