Summary

The Notice explains how Teladoc Health may use and share your health information.

Protected Health Information, or PHI, means health information that can identify you. This may include information about your health, care, services, or payment for care.

Teladoc Health may use and share your PHI as allowed by law.

We may use and share your PHI for treatment. This helps us provide care to you.

We may use and share your PHI for payment. This helps us bill for services and work with health plans.

We may use and share your PHI for healthcare operations. This helps us run our business, support care, improve quality, and help members.

Teladoc Health includes related companies that may work together under HIPAA. Teladoc Health may also work with affiliated medical groups to support your care.

Teladoc Health may take part in secure health information exchanges and clinical data networks. These networks may help providers get information for your care. Depending on state law and network rules, you may be able to opt out of some exchange activities.

Teladoc Health may use automated tools, including AI-enabled tools. These tools may help with care support, clinical notes, quality review, service navigation, and business needs. These tools do not replace licensed healthcare professionals.

Teladoc Health will not use or share your PHI for marketing that requires HIPAA authorization unless you give written authorization. Teladoc Health will not sell your PHI without your written authorization.

You have privacy rights. You may have the right to access your information, ask for corrections, ask for limits, ask for private communications, request a list of certain disclosures, get a paper copy of the Notice, and file a complaint.

The fastest way to access your medical information is usually through the Teladoc Health app or website. You may also submit a written privacy rights request.

Teladoc Health will not punish you for filing a privacy complaint or using your privacy rights.

Which Teladoc Health entities are covered by this Notice?

This Notice applies to Teladoc Health, Inc. and certain related entities that work together to provide healthcare services. Teladoc Health, Inc. and its affiliated companies — including, but not limited to, Livongo Health, Inc., Catapult Health, LLC, Best Doctors, Inc., HealthiestYou, Inc., myStrength, Inc., and Advance Medical, Inc. — operate together as a single Affiliated Covered Entity (ACE) under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). As an ACE, these entities may use and share protected health information (PHI) with each other for treatment, payment, and healthcare operations.

This Notice also applies to Teladoc Health Medical Group, P.A. and its affiliated professional entities. These medical groups are independent provider organizations, but they participate with Teladoc Health in a HIPAA-defined Organized Health Care Arrangement (OHCA). The OHCA allows Teladoc Health and these medical groups to integrate care, improve quality, and carry out certain joint healthcare operations. PHI may be shared among OHCA participants as permitted by HIPAA to support your care and related operations.

When this Notice refers to “Teladoc Health,” “Teladoc,” “we,” “us,” or “our,” it means Teladoc Health, Inc., the affiliated ACE participants covered by this Notice, and the medical groups that participate in the OHCA described above. Catapult Health, LLC is part of the ACE but maintains a separate, aligned Catapult Health Notice of Privacy Practices.

Can this Notice change?

Yes. We may update this Notice from time to time. Any changes will apply to all PHI we maintain as a HIPAA Covered Entity, and the updated Notice will be available on our website.

What is protected health information (PHI)?

PHI is information, held by a Covered Entity, that identifies you and relates to:

How does Teladoc Health use and share your information?

We use and share your PHI only as allowed by law, including for the following purposes:

Treatment

We use and share your PHI to provide medical care and services to you. For example, this may include sharing information with healthcare providers involved in your care and making prior visit information available to support continuity of care.

Payment

We use and share your PHI to support billing and collecting payment for services, including working with health plans and other payers. For example, this may include sending a claim to your health plan for payment.

Healthcare operations

We use and share your PHI to run our organization and support healthcare delivery. For example, this includes:

Participation in Health Information Exchanges

To support treatment, care coordination, and healthcare operations, Teladoc Health participates in secure electronic health information exchanges (HIEs) and clinical data networks as permitted by law. Depending on applicable state law and exchange policies, you may be able to opt out of participation in certain exchanges. You may submit an opt-out request, here. Exchange connectivity is supported by Zus Health, a third-party interoperability provider. For more information, you may review the Zus Patient Notice or submit a request directly through the Zus Opt-Out or Opt-In Forms.

Use of Automated Tools

As part of our healthcare operations and HIPAA-permitted purposes, Teladoc Health may use Automated Tools, including AI-enabled technology, to support quality improvement, care coordination, clinical documentation, operational efficiency, and service navigation related to the delivery of healthcare services. These tools are designed to assist our workforce and providers and do not make clinical decisions or replace the independent judgment of licensed healthcare professionals. We may disclose your PHI to service providers that support our technology; any such disclosure will comply with HIPAA.

Uses and Disclosures Requiring Your Authorization

Certain uses and disclosures of your protected health information (PHI) are permitted only with your written authorization. These include:

Marketing

We will not use or disclose your PHI for marketing purposes that require authorization under HIPAA without your written authorization. Certain communications about treatment alternatives, health-related products or services, or care coordination activities may be permitted by law without authorization.

Sale of Protected Health Information

We will not sell your PHI without your written authorization. A sale of PHI means a disclosure of PHI where we receive payment directly or indirectly in exchange for the information, as defined by HIPAA.

Revoking an Authorization

If you provide an authorization, you may revoke it at any time by submitting a written revocation. A revocation will not apply to uses or disclosures already made in reliance on your authorization.

Substance Use Disorder treatment information

To the extent we receive or maintain information about you from a substance use disorder treatment program that is subject to additional federal protections under 42 CFR Part 2 (“Part 2 Program”), we will use and disclose it in accordance with applicable federal law. We are not a Part 2 Program.

  • If we receive Part 2 protected information through a general consent you provide to a Part 2 Program for treatment, payment, or health care operations, we may use and disclose that information for those purposes as described in this Notice.
  • If we receive Part 2 protected information through a specific consent you provide to us or another third party, we will use and disclose that information only as permitted by that consent.

In no event will we use or disclose Part 2 protected information, or testimony describing such information, in any civil, criminal, administrative, or legislative proceeding against you without your written consent or a court order that meets applicable legal requirements.

When are we required to share your information?

We may be required or allowed by law to share your PHI in certain situations, including:

What rights do you have regarding your information?

You have important rights regarding your protected health information (PHI). Your medical power of attorney or legal guardian can exercise these rights on your behalf as well. These rights are provided under federal law and, in some cases, may be subject to limitations or conditions.

How can you access your medical information?

The easiest and fastest way to access your medical information is through the Teladoc Health mobile app or by signing into your account on our website.
