At Peak Integrative Health, LLC, we are committed to providing high-quality healthcare services while adhering strictly to legal and ethical standards. This policy pertains to the location-based eligibility of patients for both in-person and virtual medical encounters.

 

1. Geographical Restrictions:

   1. All patient encounters, whether they are in-person or virtual (including live synchronous telehealth or asynchronous telemedicine), will be exclusively conducted with patients who are physically located within the states where the medical provider holds an active medical license.

 

1. State Coverage Information:

   1. Peak Integrative Health, LLC will maintain an up-to-date list on our website detailing the states in which our medical providers are currently licensed to practice. This list will be updated promptly with any changes in licensing status.

 

1. Patient Notification:

   1. At the time of booking an appointment, patients will be informed of this policy to ensure they are aware that they must be located within a licensed state for the duration of the medical encounter.

   2. This policy will be reiterated at the initiation of each patient encounter, both for virtual and in-person consultations, to confirm compliance.

 

1. Non-Compliance and Refunds:

   1. There will be no refunds provided if a patient fails to comply with this policy. It is the responsibility of the patient to ensure they are within a state where the provider is licensed during the time of the medical service.

Patients found to be non-compliant will be advised to reschedule once they are within a licensed state.
