• Use of output data from medical devices, sound and video files.

The electronic systems used in the RISE Service will incorporate network and software security protocols to protect the privacy and security of health information and imaging data, and will include measures to safeguard the data to ensure its integrity against intentional or unintentional corruption.

Possible Benefits of Telehealth/Telemedicine

• Can be easier and more efficient for you to access medical care and treatment.
• You can obtain medical care and treatment at times that are convenient for you.
• You can interact with providers without the necessity of an in-office appointment.

Possible Risks of Telehealth/Telemedicine

• Information transmitted to your provider(s) may not be sufficient to allow for appropriate medical decision making by the provider(s).

• Your provider may not able to provide medical treatment for your particular condition via telemedicine and you may be required to seek alternative care.
• Delays in medical evaluation/treatment could occur due to failures of the technology.
• Security protocols or safeguards could fail causing a breach of privacy.
