ideal.fit’s Role
We contract with and offer the Sites and the Services to allow patients and the medical practice, ideal.fit to connect and set up consultations via telehealth with the Practice’s health care providers (individually, the “Provider” and collectively, the “Providers”).
ideal.fit contracts with and provides administrative services to the Practices, which are independently owned by a licensed physician and not the Practices. ideal.fit does not employ or in any way supervise or control the Providers providing care to you. The Sites organize information you submit on your medical status for use by your Provider and facilitate scheduling of medical examinations. While ideal.fit facilitates care coordination, ideal.fit does not engage in the practice of medicine or provide medical advice or care. The content of the Sites and the Services, 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 ideal.fit. 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.
The Practices’ Role
The Practices’ Providers deliver clinical services online. Providers are independently contracted or employed by the Practices and use the Sites as a way to coordinate access for you. ideal.fit is not responsible for the quality and appropriateness of the care the Providers render to you. You are ultimately responsible for choosing your particular Provider, and the doctor-patient relationship is between you and the Provider you ultimately select. Your interactions with the Providers via telehealth are not intended to replace your relationship of your other health care practitioners or primary care physician. Neither ideal.fit, nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or any third party who may promote the Sites or the Services, shall be liable for any professional advice obtained from a Provider via telehealth, or any information obtained on the Sites.
Not for Emergencies
The Sites and the Services are not intended for medical emergencies or urgent situations. You should not disregard or delay to seek medical advice based on anything that appears or does not appear on the Sites. If you believe you have an emergency, call 9-1-1 immediately. You should seek emergency help or follow up care when recommended by a Provider or when otherwise needed. Always seek the advice of a physician or other qualified health care provider concerning questions you have regarding a medical condition and before stopping, starting, or modifying any treatment or modification.
Insurance
ideal.fit and the Practices currently do not currently accept payment from federal and state health care programs, such as Medicare and Medicaid, for the Services. By agreeing to use the Services, you acknowledge and agree that you will pay directly for any Services provided to you, and neither ideal.fit, the Practices, nor the Provider will bill any insurance, including federal or state health care programs, for such Services.

The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the “DMCA”) provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that content appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under U.S. copyright law. If you believe in good faith that content posted on the Sites infringes your copyright, you (or your agent) may send ideal.fit a “Notification of Claimed Infringement” requesting that the content be removed, or access to it blocked. The notice must include the following information:
- A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of the works that have been allegedly infringed.
- Identification of the copyrighted work alleged to have been infringed (or if a single notification, a representative list of such works, covers multiple copyrighted works located on the Sites).
- Identification of the specific material alleged to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity and information reasonably sufficient to allow ideal.fit to locate the material on the Sites.
- Your name, address, telephone number, and email address (if available).

If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send ideal.fit a counter-notice.

Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Sites should be sent to [email protected].
