Last revision: June 16, 2022

IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, YOU SHOULD DIAL “911” IMMEDIATELY.

A) Use of the Site.

Medek Health Systems, LLC. (“Medek”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) operates the website located at www.medekrpm.com and other related websites including www.medek.io, www.medekhealth.com and mobile applications with links to these Terms of Use (collectively, the “Site”). We offer Remote Patient Monitoring for people with chronic health issues whose doctors (Providers: MD, ARNP, DO, PA) would like daily monitoring of certain vital statistics registered through a medical device. Medek provides a connection through online remote monitoring and telehealth services (the “Connection”) enabling our members (“Patients”) to report their health history and engage their healthcare professionals. By accessing and using this Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and all other terms and policies that appear on the Site. If you do not wish to be bound by any of these Terms of Use, you may not use the Site or the Services.

Your interactions with Medek professionals and our portal are not intended to replace of your scheduled visits with your regular health care practitioners. Your daily monitoring is intended to supplement your relationship with your Healthcare Provider by providing your Provider with more information to develop more accurate treatment plans.

B) Healthcare Services.

Medek Health Systems, LLC. does not practice medicine or any other licensed profession and does not interfere with the practice of medicine or any other licensed profession by Healthcare Professionals, each of whom is responsible for his or her services and compliance with the requirements applicable to his or her profession and license. Medek Health Services, LLC works with your Healthcare Provider to help them provide better healthcare. Neither Medek Health Systems, LLC nor any third parties who promote their Services or provide you with a link to their Services shall be liable for any professional advice you obtain from a Healthcare Professional via their Services.

C) Site Content.

None of the Site content should be considered medical advice or an endorsement, representation or warranty that any particular medication or treatment is safe, appropriate, or effective for you. This includes testimonials, examples, and any marketing material. The contents are a resource to help the healthcare plan developed by your Healthcare Provider.

D) Privacy

Medek Health Systems, LLC, as Medical Health Collector, and any of its affiliates are required to comply with federal healthcare privacy and security laws and maintain safeguards to protect the security of your health information. Additionally, the information you provide to your Healthcare Professional through daily monitoring is legally confidential, except for certain legal exceptions as more fully described in our Privacy Policy. We devote considerable effort toward ensuring that your personal information is secure. As part of providing you the Connection, we may need to provide you with certain communications, such as appointment reminders, service announcements and administrative messages. These communications are considered part of your Account. While secure electronic messaging is always preferred to unsecure email, under certain circumstances, unsecured email communication containing personal health information may take place between you and Medek. Medek does not ensure the security or confidentiality of any messages sent by email, or on rare occasions through the US Postal Service. Information relating to your care, including clinical notes and medical records, are stored on secure, encrypted servers maintained by the independent Healthcare Providers used by Medek. As a member you may request your medical records which Medek will request from its independent Healthcare Providers to be sent directly to you.
