if you’re a licensed practitioner offering medical services
and you want to work with patients via Telehealth
– you’ll want your clients to sign a Telehealth Consent Form
BEFORE they receive your Services.
what is a telehealth consent form?
A Telehealth Consent Form is for you if you’re a licensed practitioner offering medical services and you want to work with patients via Telehealth – like an integrative physician, counselor, social worker or therapist, registered dietician, doctor of chiropractic medicine or licensed naturopathic medicine, or physical therapist, for example. Have your patients sign a Telehealth Consent Form BEFORE you start working with them using Telehealth services to get their full and voluntary consent.
IMPORTANT NOTES YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT TELEHEALTH: (More details are shared in the audio guide – be sure to listen!)
1. Use Telehealth ONLY in states where you’re licensed. Know that only a few states allow Telehealth to be used across state lines.
2. In some states ALL licensed medical practitioners may use Telehealth or Telemedicine – but in others only SOME types may do so. Know your state law’s exact definition of “Telehealth” and “Telemedicine.” Each state defines them differently.
3. Some states require a written Telehealth Consent Form, and in others, it’s optional. But in ALL states, using a written consent form to receive Telehealth services is a best practice.
With these points in mind, know that this Telehealth Consent Form will make your Telehealth policies clear and get your patient’s consent so there’s no confusion.
why do you need it?
From a PRACTICAL standpoint, every patient needs to understand and agree to your Telehealth policies, know the risks and benefits, and be informed of the Telehealth services BEFORE they receive them.
It’s not a contract per se – because licensed medical practitioners are not allowed to enter into contracts with patients. Rather, it’s a one-sided consent form – just like your Informed Consent Form – to be signed by the patient to show they are giving full and voluntary consent to receive services via Telehealth.
When you have the right legal steps in place, like a Telehealth Consent Form, you feel more CONFIDENT and EMPOWERED as a practitioner knowing that you’re protected and doing things safely on the legal front.

“My mind is at ease, and instead of having lingering doubts about my next venture, I am ready to plunge ahead feeling protected and thrilled!”
Working with Lisa was truly a joyful experience! I was seeking legal guidance and clarity, and was able to find that from our 1-Hour Power Hour. I now feel fully secure and confident with my next steps going forward.
As a Physician Assistant, legal matters aren’t my strong suit. Starting my own business was daunting, but Lisa made the process seamless and enjoyable. What I found was more of a friendly conversation with her, rather than a consultation.
I would HIGHLY recommend seeking Lisa’s expertise to guide you on legal questions, as she is open and honest, and uses a language that you can easily understand, but is also rooted in compassion. Thank you, Lisa!
