Telemedicine Informed Consent
[DRAFT v0.1 — pending legal review, Phase 0 §9]
This consent applies to patients in Colombia, where OdontoCheck provides a formal dental second-opinion teleconsultation in accordance with Resolution 2654 of 2019 of the Ministry of Health and Social Protection.
What it involves: a live video consultation with a registered dentist, followed by a report with the assessment of your case. The dentist reviews the information and images you provide and issues a professional second opinion remotely.
Scope and limitations: telemedicine does not allow an in-person physical examination or clinical procedures. The quality of the assessment depends on the information and images you supply. In some cases the dentist may recommend an in-person visit to confirm findings or complete the evaluation.
Risks and benefits: benefits include timely access to a specialist opinion without travel. Limitations and risks include the impossibility of a physical examination and the potential need for additional studies. Telemedicine does not handle emergencies: in an emergency, go to an emergency service.
Confidentiality: your data and clinical information are treated confidentially, stored encrypted, and accessed only by the professionals assigned to your case; every access is recorded in an audit log.
Voluntariness: your participation is voluntary and you may withdraw this consent at any time, without affecting your right to receive care by other means.
This document is a draft and will be replaced by the version reviewed by legal counsel before commercial launch.
