‍
If You have entered into a separate executed agreement, order form, or legal contract for purchasing services or products from emocha (each a “Contract”), such Contract shall supersede these Terms. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Contract, the Contract will prevail. In cases where the Contract does not address specific provisions included in these Terms, these Terms will apply, supplementing the Contract.

We offer access and use of our video technology and patient engagement solution that allows participating medical professionals, health care staff, researchers, pharmacists and pharmaceutical personnel, clinical trials personnel, and other healthcare workers (collectively, “Providers”) to communicate with their clients and patients (collectively, “Participants”), to monitor medication adherence by the Participants and to provide other services such as documenting medication adherence, monitoring side effects, providing critical support, and related health care services, and to contract additional video-submitted-reviews and other emocha services via a secure Internet connection. We also enable Participants to communicate with Providers regarding medication management via SMS text message if a Participant opts-in and consents to that service.

While the Service allows Providers to engage with Participants, and may also provide access to certain general medical information, the Service itself cannot and is not intended to provide medical advice. Please contact your physician or other qualified health care provider with any questions regarding personal health, medical conditions, or related to the medication intake. Never disregard, avoid, or delay in obtaining medical advice from a doctor or other qualified health care provider because of something posted on the Site.

NONE OF THE INFORMATION ON THE SITE REPRESENTS OR WARRANTS THAT ANY PARTICULAR DRUG, THERAPY, MEDICATION, OR OTHER TREATMENT IS SAFE, APPROPRIATE, OR EFFECTIVE FOR YOU. FURTHER, A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER’S ABILITY TO USE OUR SERVICE is not an endorsement or recommendation of that Health Care Provider by emocha.
‍
To the extent medical advice is provided to you by a health care Provider through the Service, such medical advice is based on your personal health data as provided by you to the health care Provider and the local standards of care for your presenting symptoms or reactions to medications, based on the information you provide.
