Services Provided

InstaConsult is a platform facilitating remote, patient-initiated consultations with healthcare providers to create a more convenient and efficient consultation process. Through the Site and the App we provide the following services (the “Services”):

USE OF THE SERVICES IS NOT FOR EMERGENCIES. IF YOU THINK YOU HAVE A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, OR IF AT ANY TIME YOU ARE CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR HEALTH OR THE HEALTH OF YOUR CHILD, CALL 911 OR GO TO THE NEAREST EMERGENCY ROOM.

The Services do not include the provision of medical care or other professional services by InstaConsult. InstaConsult facilitates the efficient and convenient acquisition of a medical consult from a licensed practitioner for a healthcare consumer.  While the Services may provide access to certain general health information and also may provide messaging functionality, the Services cannot and are not intended to provide medical advice and should not be used for diagnosing or treating a health problem or disease, although the Services may facilitate a licensed practitioner’s ability to provide such advice. We advise you to always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified healthcare provider with any questions regarding the health or medical conditions of you and your child. Never disregard, avoid, or delay in obtaining medical advice from your doctor or other qualified healthcare provider. If you have or suspect that you or your child has a medical problem or condition, please contact a qualified healthcare professional immediately.

THE APP AND SERVICES OF INSTACONSULT ARE NOT INTENDED FOR USE IN MAKING A MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS OR RECOMMENDING CLINICAL TREATMENT BUT ONLY FACILITATING THE INITIAL CONSULT PROCEDURE.  YOU SHOULD ALWAYS TALK TO MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL(S) FOR DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT, INCLUDING INFORMATION REGARDING WHICH TREATMENT AND/OR PRESCRIPTION MAY BE APPROPRIATE FOR YOU AND/OR YOUR CHILD. NONE OF THE INFORMATION ON THE SITE REPRESENTS OR WARRANTS THAT ANY PARTICULAR TREATMENT IS SAFE, APPROPRIATE, OR EFFECTIVE FOR YOU AND/OR YOUR CHILD.

Access to certain portions of the Site and the App is restricted to registered users of our Services. As part of our registration process, you must provide us with a valid email address and telephone number.  We need this information so that we can verify your identity, and make the full scope of member benefits available to you through the Site and the App.  Additionally, you must provide us with personal identification information and personal health information about you or your child.  This information will only be used by us as permitted by these Terms and the Privacy Policy.

 

No Doctor-Patient Relationship

 

NO LICENSED MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL-PATIENT RELATIONSHIP IS CREATED BY USING INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR THROUGH THE USE OF THE SITE OR THE APP OR THROUGH ANY OTHER COMMUNICATIONS FROM INSTACONSULT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE SCHEDULING OF AN APPOINTMENT WITH A PROVIDER AND/OR MEDICAL/HEALTHCARE RELATED MATERIALS ON THE SITE OR APP, LINKS TO OTHER SITES OR ANY INFORMATION OR ASSISTANCE PROVIDED ON OR THROUGH THE SITE OR APP TO HELP YOU SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL OR SPECIALIST IN ANY FIELD.

WE MAKE NO GUARANTEES, REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO THE PROFESSIONAL QUALIFICATIONS, EXPERTISE, QUALITY OF WORK OF ANY MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL OR SPECIALIST OR OTHER INFORMATION HEREIN. FURTHERMORE, WE DO NOT IN ANY WAY ENDORSE ANY INDIVIDUAL DESCRIBED HEREIN. IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANYONE ELSE FOR ANY DECISION MADE OR ACTION TAKEN BY YOU IN RELIANCE ON SUCH INFORMATION. WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR THE ACTIONS OR INACTIONS OF ANY MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL OR SPECIALIST, WHETHER LISTED ON THIS SITE OR NOT.

We have no control over, and cannot guarantee the advice and recommendations provided in virtual consults at any time. We will not be liable for dental work resulting from consults or any injury resulting therefrom, or for any other injury resulting from the use of the Site, the App, or the Services whatsoever.

We strongly advise, and you agree that you will perform, your own investigation prior to selecting a health care professional by making confirming telephone calls to the appropriate licensing authorities to verify listed credentials and education, and to further verify information about a particular health care professional, doctor, dentist or other health care provider (collectively, “Provider”) by confirming with the Provider’s office, your current Provider, the medical association relative to the Provider’s specialty and your state medical board.

You are responsible for safeguarding and maintaining the confidentiality of your password, and you agree not to disclose your password to any third-party.

You must notify us immediately if you know or suspect that any unauthorized person is using your password or your account (for example, your password has been lost or stolen, someone has attempted to use the Services through your account without your consent or your account has been accessed without your permission).
