How is my privacy protected with telehealth?

Any legitimate U.S. telehealth platform is legally required to comply with HIPAA — the federal law that governs the privacy and security of your medical information. This means your consultations, health records, and prescriptions must be handled confidentially and cannot be shared without your consent. Encrypted communications and secure patient portals are standard requirements, not optional extras.

When you engage with a telehealth provider, they collect sensitive details — your health history, medications, and personal data. HIPAA mandates that covered entities, including telehealth platforms and their clinical partners, implement safeguards to prevent unauthorized access or disclosure. This applies to everything from your intake form to your follow-up messages with a provider.

It's worth asking any platform you consider about their data practices. Specifically: Are clinical services delivered by a licensed medical group? Are prescriptions fulfilled by licensed pharmacies? Is your data encrypted in transit and at rest? These are baseline expectations, not bonuses.
