CONSENT TO TELEMEDICINE AND TYTO CARE SERVICES
By completing this form, you (student or parent/guardian) are providing consent for the student(s) to receive health care services via a telemedicine visit with RRH. This permission will remain in effect until the student is no longer registered at the school or until it is withdrawn in writing to RRH or RCSD’s General Counsel.
Confidentiality: The laws that protect privacy and the confidentiality of medical information also apply to telemedicine. The telemedicine provider and their agents will respect patient privacy and confidentiality during this electronic exchange of information. The information captured will be maintained, stored and safeguarded in the same fashion as any face-to-face or other form of interaction between a patient and health care provider. By signing below, you give RRH permission to use and disclose health information for treatment, payment and RRH health care operations. RRH will not record any visit without consent. Any recorded images needed for evaluation, diagnosis or treatment purposes created during a telemedicine visit will not be displayed, broadcast, or otherwise shown outside the health care setting without additional authorization. While RRH encourages every patient to involve parent(s)/legal guardian(s) in all treatment decisions, certain information must remain confidential unless the student consents to disclosure of such information to parent(s)/guardian(s).
