Telehealth consent

By checking this box and continuing, I confirm that I am an established patient of Tryon Medical Partners and that I am physically located in North Carolina. I voluntarily consent to receive healthcare through telehealth and agree to participate in a virtual visit with my healthcare provider. I understand that my healthcare services will be provided through telehealth technology, which allows me to communicate with my healthcare provider remotely. I understand the benefits of telehealth, including increased access and convenience, as well as the limitations, including the inability to perform certain aspects of a physical examination. I understand that telehealth is not a substitute for emergency care and that I may be advised to seek in-person evaluation if necessary.
