VISANA HEALTH IS NOT A MEDICAL PROVIDER AND DOES NOT PROVIDE EMERGENCY SERVICES OF ANY KIND. IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY, YOU SHOULD DIAL “911” IMMEDIATELY.
You should not disregard or delay to seek medical advice based on anything that appears or does not appear on the Site. If you believe you have an emergency, call 911 immediately. You should seek emergency help or follow up care when recommended by a Provider or when otherwise needed. You should continue to consult with your primary provider and other healthcare professionals as recommended. Always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified healthcare provider concerning questions you have regarding a medical condition and before stopping, starting, or modifying any treatment or modification.
MEDICAL SERVICES AND RELATED ADVICE
VISANA HEALTH DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE, MEDICAL SERVICES, OR MEDICAL CARE. Visana Health contracts with VH Medical Group (DE), P.A., VH Medical Group, CA., P.A., VH Medical Group, TX, P.A. and VH Medical Group, NJ, P.A., (collectively “Group”) an independent, physician owned medical group with a network of United States based Providers who provide clinical services. Group Providers deliver clinical services via the Visana Health platform to their patients. We offer an online communication platform for these Providers and their patients to connect via the Site through the use of synchronous and asynchronous telecommunications technologies. The Site facilitates communication between patients and various providers, including without limitation, board certified and licensed physicians (“Providers”). As set forth below, some of these communications may be by secure video, interactive-audio, text messages or other communicative mediums that may be insecure, and you specifically acknowledge and consent to the utilization of communicative mediums that may be less secure or vulnerable to unauthorized access associated with the Service.
Providers are independent of Visana Health and merely use our Site to communicate with you. Visana Health does not employ or contract with Providers. Providers are independently contracted or employed by Group. Thus, Providers, and not Visana Health, are responsible for the quality and appropriateness of the care they render to you, as well as for the security and integrity of any communicative mediums used with you.
Neither Visana Health, nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or any third party who may promote the Site or Service or provide a link to the Service, shall be liable for any professional advice obtained from a Provider via the Site or Service or for any information obtained from the Site. Visana Health does not recommend or endorse any specific Providers, tests, physicians, medications, products, or procedures. By using our Service, you acknowledge and accept that your reliance on any Providers or information delivered by the Providers via the Site or Service is solely at your own risk, and you assume full responsibility for all risks associated herewith.
Visana Health does not make any representations or warranties about the training or skill of any Providers who deliver services via the Site or Service, or the security of any communicative mediums provided by Visana Health. You will be provided with available Providers based solely on the information you submit to the Site. You are ultimately responsible for choosing your particular Provider.
The content of the Site and the Service, including without limitation, text, copy, audio, video, photographs, illustrations, graphics and other visuals, is for informational purposes only and does not constitute professional medical advice, diagnosis, treatment, or recommendations of any kind by Visana Health. You should always seek the advice of your qualified health care professionals with any questions or concerns you may have regarding your individual needs and any medical conditions. All information provided by Visana Health, or in connection with any communications supported by Visana Health, is intended to be for general information purposes only, and is in no way intended to create a provider-patient relationship as defined by state or federal law. While Visana Health facilitates your selection of, and communications with, Providers, Visana Health does not provide medical services, and the doctor-patient relationship is between you and the Group Provider you select.
Risks of Telehealth Services
By using our Service, you acknowledge the potential risks associated with telehealth services. These risks include but are not limited to the following:
- Information transmitted may not be sufficient—for example, because of poor resolution of images—to allow for appropriate medical or health care decision making by the Provider;
- Delays in evaluation or treatment could occur due to failures of electronic equipment;
- A lack of access to your medical records may result in adverse drug interactions or allergic reactions or other judgment errors; and
- Although the electronic systems we use incorporate network and software security protocols to protect the privacy and security of health information, those protocols could fail, causing a breach of privacy of your health information, and certain mediums of communication used to communicate with you- such as text messages- may be less secure than others that are commercially available.

If you are a California resident, you agree to consciously waive all claims, both known and unknown that may be later discovered, to the maximum extent permitted by law, including but not limited to that permitted by California Civil Code Section 1542, which states “[a] general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

This no refund policy shall apply at all times regardless of your decision to terminate your usage, our decision to terminate your usage, disruption caused to our Service either planned, accidental or intentional, or any reason whatsoever. Visana Health reserves the right to determine and change any payment term, rate, mechanism, or structure at any time with notice to you.

We reserve the right in our discretion to impose conditions on the offering of any Promotions. Other Promotions, including sweepstakes, contests, raffles, surveys, or games, may be governed by rules that are separate from or supplement these Terms. If you participate in any Promotions, please review the applicable rules. If the specific rules for a Promotion conflict with these Terms, the Promotion rules will govern.
Visana Health may use third party services to process payments, such as Stripe, which have their own separate terms of service. While Visana Health will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the security of all payment information such as credit cards or bank account numbers, Visana Health expressly disclaims any liability for any damage that may result should any third parties gain access to such information, and you agree to hold Visana Health harmless for any damages that may result therefrom.
You represent and warrant that you have the right to use any credit card or other means of payment that you provide to us. All billing information you provide to us must be current, complete, truthful, and accurate. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, including your email address and credit card numbers and expiration dates, so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed. Providing any untruthful or inaccurate information is a breach of these Terms and may result in cancellation of your order. Prior to accepting an order, we may also request additional information from you. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of any transaction. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order for any reason including limitations on availability, inaccuracies, or errors in service or pricing information, or problems identified by our credit and fraud avoidance department. If your order is canceled after your credit card (or other payment account) has been charged, we will issue a credit to your credit card (or other applicable payment account) in the amount of the charge. We will attempt to contact you if all or any portion of your order is canceled or if additional information is required to accept your order. Visana Health may request a pre-authorization for some orders placed online with a credit or debit card. This pre-authorization will not be billed to you; however, your card issuer may hold this amount for a short period. Your card issuer determines the length of time the pre-authorization is held. We do this to ensure that the card details are still valid and that you have sufficient funds to complete the transaction. We are not responsible for any fees or charges that your bank or credit card issuer may apply.
If you are a California resident, in accordance with Cal. Civ. Code §1789.3, you may report complaints to the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs by contacting them in writing at 1625 North Market Blvd., Suite N 112 Sacramento, CA 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210 or (916) 445-1254.
