Telehealth Consent
Effective date: July 14, 2026
This Telehealth Informed Consent explains the nature of telehealth, its expected benefits and potential risks, the parties involved in your care, and your rights and responsibilities. By accepting this Consent electronically and proceeding with a clinical evaluation, you voluntarily consent to receiving healthcare services through telehealth.
1. What Telehealth Is
Telehealth is healthcare delivered through electronic information and communication technologies when the patient and healthcare provider are in different locations. Telehealth through the Kurea experience may include:
Electronic medical-intake forms and health-history questionnaires.
Identity verification and confirmation of your physical location.
Secure exchange and review of photographs, documents, laboratory results, and other health information.
Asynchronous or store-and-forward clinical review.
Secure messaging with a Provider or care team.
Telephone, audio, or video consultation when required or clinically appropriate.
Treatment recommendations, prescriptions when appropriate, and follow-up communications.
Electronic transmission of prescriptions to a licensed pharmacy.
Telehealth does not always involve a real-time video consultation. The method used will depend on your location, applicable law, the information submitted, and the Provider’s independent clinical judgment.
2. Parties Involved
Altura Ventures LLC is the legal entity doing business as Kurea Care. Kurea is the consumer-facing brand. Kurea and Altura Ventures LLC provide non-clinical administrative, marketing, payment, technology, and support services. They do not practice medicine or pharmacy and are not parties to the clinician-patient relationship.
The technology platform is provided in part by Rimo Health LLC. Clinical services are provided by independently licensed healthcare professionals through Digital Medical Care, P.C.; TXMD of California, P.C.; TXMD of Kansas, P.A.; or TXMD of Texas, P.C., depending on your location. Each clinician (“Provider”) is licensed or otherwise authorized to provide care where you are physically located and exercises independent clinical judgment.
If a prescription is issued, it is dispensed by an independent licensed pharmacy. Kurea does not prescribe, manufacture, compound, or dispense medication.
3. Expected Benefits
Potential benefits of telehealth include:
Improved access to licensed healthcare providers.
Convenient evaluation without traveling to a clinic.
Faster and more efficient exchange of health information.
Greater privacy and comfort for sensitive health concerns.
Electronic coordination of prescriptions and follow-up care.
Benefits and outcomes are not guaranteed.
4. Potential Risks and Limitations
Telehealth may involve risks and limitations, including:
Information transmitted electronically may be incomplete, inaccurate, delayed, corrupted, misdirected, or of insufficient quality for a clinical decision.
A Provider cannot perform a complete physical examination and may be unable to identify a condition that could be detected during in-person care.
A Provider may determine that telehealth is inappropriate, require a real-time consultation, request additional records or testing, or refer you to in-person care.
Internet, device, software, power, or platform failures may interrupt or delay evaluation and communication.
Electronic systems carry privacy and security risks despite reasonable safeguards.
Email and ordinary telephone communications may not be encrypted to the same extent as secure portal communications.
Prescription availability may be affected by Provider judgment, pharmacy stock, state law, shipping, or other circumstances.
Delays may occur because of incomplete information, identity-verification issues, Provider availability, Pharmacy processing, or carrier interruption.
If the quality of information is not adequate, your Provider may decline to make a clinical decision until additional information or an in-person evaluation is obtained.
5. Alternatives
You may decline telehealth and seek in-person care from another healthcare professional. Telehealth is not a replacement for all in-person care, diagnostic testing, or an ongoing relationship with a primary-care provider. You are encouraged to maintain a local primary-care provider and inform that provider of relevant treatment.
6. Privacy and Medical Records
Federal and state laws protect the confidentiality of medical information. Information from a telehealth encounter becomes part of the medical record maintained by the applicable Provider Group. It may be shared with other healthcare professionals, pharmacies, laboratories, technology vendors, and service providers involved in your treatment, payment, and healthcare operations as permitted by law.
Kurea and Rimo Health LLC may provide administrative or technology support to the Provider Group and may process health information under applicable privacy and security obligations. The applicable Notice of Privacy Practices describes how protected health information may be used and disclosed and explains your HIPAA rights.
No personally identifiable image or medical information will be used for research, education, public testimonials, or marketing without any authorization required by law.
7. Prescriptions and Compounded Medication
Telehealth consent does not guarantee treatment or a prescription. The Provider independently determines whether a prescription is clinically appropriate after reviewing the information available. The Provider may decline to prescribe, change a treatment recommendation, require additional evaluation, or discontinue treatment.
Treatments offered through Kurea may include compounded prescription medications in oral, sublingual, injectable, or other formats. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved, and FDA does not review their safety, effectiveness, or quality before marketing. The Provider determines whether a compounded medication is appropriate for your individual medical needs. Discuss risks, benefits, alternatives, ingredients, and possible drug interactions with your Provider and follow the dispensing Pharmacy’s labeling.
Where permitted and operationally available, you may request that a valid prescription be sent to a pharmacy of your choice. Additional costs or service limitations may apply.
8. Your Responsibilities and Acknowledgments
By consenting to telehealth, you acknowledge and agree that:
You are at least 18 years old and will accurately report your identity and physical location at the time care is provided.
You will provide complete, accurate, and current information about symptoms, medical history, diagnoses, medications, supplements, allergies, substance use, and other matters requested by the Provider.
You understand that withholding or misrepresenting information can create serious health risks.
You will respond to Provider questions and complete any requested consultation, testing, or follow-up before using prescribed medication.
You may ask questions and may request information about the Provider’s identity, credentials, diagnosis, treatment recommendation, risks, benefits, and alternatives.
You may decline telehealth or seek a second opinion or in-person care.
You understand that no result, treatment, or prescription is guaranteed.
You will use medication only as prescribed, will not share or resell it, and will review the Pharmacy’s instructions.
You will contact your Provider or seek appropriate medical care if symptoms worsen, side effects occur, or you have concerns about treatment.
You accept the risks of technology failure and understand that another communication method or an in-person visit may be necessary.
Non-clinical personnel may assist with technology or administration. You may ask about any person’s identity and role and may request reasonable privacy during a consultation.
9. Communications
You consent to receive necessary appointment notices, account communications, requests for information, Provider messages, refill reminders, shipping notices, and other care-related or administrative communications through secure portal message, email, or telephone.
Kurea does not send marketing SMS messages. Email and ordinary telephone communications may carry privacy risks. You may request an alternative reasonable communication method by contacting contact@kureacare.com.
10. Medical Records
You may request access to your medical records through the secure patient portal or by emailing contact@kureacare.com. Kurea will route the request to the applicable Provider Group, which maintains the clinical record and will respond according to applicable law. A reasonable cost-based fee may apply where permitted.
With your authorization and where permitted or required by law, the Provider Group may send records to your designated primary-care or treating provider.
11. Not for Emergencies
The Kurea Platform and participating Providers do not provide emergency medical services. If you experience chest pain, difficulty breathing, signs of stroke, severe allergic reaction, suicidal thoughts, an erection lasting four hours or longer, or another condition you believe may be life-threatening, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency department immediately. For a mental-health crisis, call or text 988.
Do not use portal messages, email, or Kurea customer support for emergencies.
12. Financial Disclosure and Open Payments
Federal law requires applicable drug, device, biologic manufacturers, and group purchasing organizations to report certain payments or transfers of value to physicians and teaching hospitals. Information may be searched through the federal Open Payments database at openpaymentsdata.cms.gov. The existence of a reported payment does not by itself establish improper conduct.
13. Withdrawing Consent
You may withdraw consent to telehealth at any time by notifying your Provider through the secure portal or emailing contact@kureacare.com. Withdrawal does not affect care already provided, legal record-retention obligations, or charges already incurred. It does not automatically cancel a subscription or stop a medication order already submitted to a Pharmacy. Subscription cancellation is governed by the Refund and Cancellation Policy.
