(LLMs) are an important integration that allow us significant advantages in

We use AI & LLM’s in the Service to help with:
·
Enhanced Data Analysis and Retrieval: LLMs, powered by advanced natural
language processing, excel in comprehending and extracting valuable insights
from Electronic Health Records (EHRs). This translates to faster and more
accurate access to critical user/patient information, enabling healthcare
professionals to make well-informed decisions promptly.
·
Improved Documentation Accuracy: Through the integration of specialized
medical transcription datasets, LLMs significantly elevate the accuracy of
medical documentation. This ensures that user/patient records are not only
created efficiently but also with a level of precision that reduces the
likelihood of errors. This is critical for maintaining the integrity of user/patient
histories and treatment plans.
·
Predictive Healthcare and Disease Management: LLMs have demonstrated
their potential in reimagining disease management their ability to sift through
extensive datasets and provide insights that can inform strategies for
predicting, preventing, and managing diseases.
·
Time Efficiency and Workflow Streamlining: By automating tasks related
to data analysis and documentation, LLMs free up valuable time for healthcare
professionals, like you, allowing you more time on direct user/patient care,
ultimately leading to improved user/patient outcomes and a more efficient
healthcare system.

statistical relationships present in training datasets, which may include toxic
language and historical biases along race, gender, sexual orientation, ability,
language, cultural, and intersectional dimensions. We recommend that while

Outputs

The
Services and any Outputs may not reflect correct, current, or complete
information.

content or decisions that are provided to consumers or the general public, or
decisions made about an individual. Your business is responsible for the
accuracy and appropriateness of that information. For other types of content
generation or interactions with users that do not involve direct advice,
recommendations, or subjective decisions, human review is strongly encouraged

26. Telehealth for California Residents:
Services by electronic means, including but not limited to telephone
communication, the Internet, facsimile machines, and e-mail is considered
telemedicine by the State of California. Thus, the services provided through
the Platform are considered as Telemedicine under the California Telemedicine
Act of 1996. In that regard, use of the Platform for your consult with the
Professional, you understand:
a. You retain the option to withhold or
withdraw consent at any time without affecting the right to future care or
treatment or risking the loss or withdrawal of any program benefits to which
you would otherwise be entitled.
b. All existing confidentiality
protections are equally applicable.
c. Your access to all medical information
transmitted during a telemedicine consultation is guaranteed, and copies of
this information are available for a reasonable fee.
d. Dissemination of any of your
identifiable images or information from the telemedicine interaction to
researchers or other entities shall not occur without your consent.
e. There are potential risks,
consequences, and benefits of telemedicine. Potential benefits include, but are
not limited to improved communication capabilities, providing convenient access
to up-to-date information, consultations, support, reduced costs, improved
quality, change in the conditions of practice, improved access to therapy,
better continuity of care, and reduction of lost work time and travel costs.
Effective therapy is often facilitated when the therapist gathers within a
session or a series of sessions, a multitude of observations, information, and
experiences about the client. Professionals may make clinical assessments,
diagnosis, and interventions based not only on direct verbal or auditory
communications, written reports, and third person consultations, but also from
direct visual and olfactory observations, information, and experiences. When
using information technology in therapy services, potential risks include, but
are not limited to the Professional's inability to make visual and olfactory
observations of clinically or therapeutically potentially relevant issues such
as: your physical condition including deformities, apparent height and weight,
body type, attractiveness relative to social and cultural norms or standards,
gait and motor coordination, posture, work speed, any noteworthy mannerism or
gestures, physical or medical conditions including bruises or injuries, basic
grooming and hygiene including appropriateness of dress, eye contact (including
any changes in the previously listed issues), sex, chronological and apparent
age, ethnicity, facial and body language, and congruence of language and facial
or bodily expression. Potential consequences thus include the Professional not
being aware of what he or she would consider important information, that you
may not recognize as significant to present verbally the therapist.
f. Minors: If you are a minor,
your parents may be legally entitled to some information about your therapy. The
Professional will discuss with you and your parents what information is
appropriate for them to receive and which issues are more appropriately kept
confidential.
By
Registering on the Platform, the Patient/User accepts the terms and conditions
stated herein, which may be updated and amended from time to time and the same
shall be notified to the Patient/User.
