Terms of Service & Privacy Policy
One page, two documents. Part 1 is the Subscriber Agreement between GoTo Telemed and the licensed medical and dental professionals who use our software. Part 2 explains how we collect, use, and protect information across the platform.
What GoTo Telemed is — and is not
GoTo Telemed ("we," "us," the "Company") is a technology and software-as-a-service (SaaS) company. We license practice-enablement software and provide related onboarding, training, and administrative support to independent, licensed healthcare professionals ("Subscribers," "Providers," "you"). We are not a medical or dental practice, we do not provide healthcare services to patients, we do not employ Subscribers, and no physician–patient or dentist–patient relationship is ever formed with GoTo Telemed. Subscribers practice independently under their own licenses, professional judgment, and malpractice coverage.
Terms of Service & Subscriber Agreement
What a subscription delivers, how onboarding works, what it costs, and each party's responsibilities.
Acceptance of these terms
By submitting an application, signing the Service Level Agreement ("SLA") presented in the Provider Success Tool, paying a subscription fee, or accessing any GoTo Telemed portal, you agree to these Terms, the Privacy Policy in Part 2 below, the Refund Policy, and the End User License Agreement (EULA) published on our site. If you accept on behalf of a practice or entity, you represent that you are authorized to bind it. If you do not agree, do not use the services.
Eligibility
- You must be at least 18 years old and hold an active, unrestricted license in a recognized healthcare profession (e.g., MD/DO, NP, PA, RN, DDS/DMD, RDH, or other allied health roles we support) in at least one U.S. state, or be in a documented pathway toward such licensure for training-only plans.
- You must provide accurate credentialing information (license numbers, NPI, malpractice certificate, and related documents) and keep it current. We may verify credentials with primary sources and suspend access if verification fails.
- Clinical-facing tools (telehealth console, e-prescribing workflows, claims tools) are activated only after your application, SLA, and payment are approved and required credentials are on file.
What your subscription includes — technology deliverables
A GoTo Telemed subscription is a bundle of software access and defined support services. Depending on the plan purchased, the subscription includes:
Provider Success Tool (PST)
A guided onboarding workspace at gototelemed.com/pst with your application form, e-signable SLA, milestone "care-journey" timeline, document uploads, payment confirmation, and progress tracking from signup to go-live.
Telehealth video console
A browser-based provider portal with an online waiting room, disposable per-visit video room URLs, shareable visit links, and in-visit chat — no patient app install required.
Patient intake & records tools
Digital intake questionnaires, an intake viewer, and practice record-keeping tools (EMR signup and integration support) so you can document visits within your own practice.
Scheduling & appointment coordination
A manage-schedule module plus a named Appointment Coordinator assigned from our support team once operations start.
Claims & billing workspace
A claims portal for preparing insurance claims, payer-mix and income-projection reports, and an Allocated Biller support contact assigned when your practice goes live.
E-prescription workflow
A write-prescription module that connects your visits to compliant e-prescribing workflows (subject to your DEA/state authority; controlled-substance rules always apply).
Credentialing support
A structured credentialing workflow with a named Credentialing Single Point of Contact (SPOC), document collection, primary-source verification coordination, and payer-enrollment assistance.
Training portal
Self-paced telehealth training at gototelemed.com/training ("Healing & Telehealth Foundations" and service-specific modules), with a named Training Support contact and completion tracked in your PST timeline.
AI-assisted tools
Optional AI features (such as the Aura assistant) that help summarize intake information and answer platform questions. AI outputs are informational aids only — clinical decisions remain solely yours.
Support channels
In-portal support tickets, bookable phone calls and screen-share meetings, and email support from named contacts (credentialing, training, appointment coordination, billing).
Practice web presence
Where included in your plan: a provider business webpage, business email setup, and patient-portal allocation for your practice.
Admin & security infrastructure
One-time-passcode login, role-based access, encrypted U.S.-based hosting, audit logging, and uptime-focused infrastructure as described in the Privacy Policy below.
Onboarding workflow
Subscriptions follow a defined onboarding sequence, tracked step-by-step in the Provider Success Tool:
- ApplicationYou complete the online application with your profession, states, services, and expected patient volume.
- Review & SLAOur team reviews your application; you read and e-sign the Service Level Agreement describing your plan's deliverables.
- Payment confirmationYou pay the subscription fee through our checkout partner and upload/confirm proof of payment; approval starts your onboarding timeline.
- TrainingYou complete the required training modules at your own pace (typically 15–20 days).
- Credentialing & setupWe collect credentialing documents (license, malpractice certificate), verify them, and configure your business email, webpage, and portal access as included in your plan.
- Allocation & go-liveNamed support contacts (appointment coordinator, biller) are assigned, your telehealth console is activated, and your practice begins operating on the platform.
Each milestone is reviewed and approved in the admin console; you can see status, remarks, and next steps in your PST dashboard at all times.
Fees, billing, and refunds
- Subscription fees. Fees for your selected plan are shown at checkout and/or in a payment link we send after application approval. Fees are for software access and defined support services — they are not payment for patient referrals or clinical services.
- Payment processing. Payments are processed by third-party checkout and payment platforms; your card details go directly to the processor. We record payment confirmations in your PST timeline.
- Renewals. Recurring plans renew at the stated interval until cancelled. We notify you before any fee change takes effect.
- Refunds. Refunds are governed by the published Refund Policy linked in the PST portal. Fees for onboarding stages already delivered (e.g., completed training or credentialing work) are generally non-refundable except where the policy or applicable law provides otherwise.
- Taxes. Fees exclude applicable taxes, which are your responsibility where required.
License and acceptable use
Subject to payment and compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access the platform for your own professional practice during your subscription. You agree not to:
- share login credentials or one-time passcodes, or allow unlicensed persons to use clinical-facing tools;
- copy, resell, sublicense, scrape, reverse-engineer, or build a competing product from the platform;
- upload malicious code, attempt to bypass security, or access data belonging to other Subscribers;
- use the platform for unlawful purposes, including prescribing outside your licensed authority or practicing in states where you are not licensed;
- misrepresent your credentials, identity, or affiliation with GoTo Telemed.
We may suspend or terminate access for violations, with notice where practicable.
Professional responsibility & independent-contractor status
- You are an independent professional or business, not an employee, agent, or partner of GoTo Telemed. Nothing in this agreement creates an employment, joint-venture, or agency relationship.
- You must maintain active licensure and professional liability (malpractice) insurance at all times while using clinical-facing tools, and provide certificates on request.
- Support staff we allocate (coordinators, billers, SPOCs) act as administrative support under your direction for your practice; they do not provide medical care or supervision.
- AI-assisted features are informational tools only and must not replace your professional judgment.
Patient data, HIPAA, and the Business Associate Agreement
You (your practice) are the covered entity for patient information created or stored in the platform. GoTo Telemed acts as your Business Associate and will execute a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) with you before clinical-facing tools are activated. You own your practice data; upon termination you may export it, after which we delete or de-identify remaining copies per the BAA and our retention schedule. You are responsible for obtaining patient consents required for telehealth and for your own Notice of Privacy Practices.
Intellectual property
The platform, portals, training content, templates, documentation, and branding are owned by GoTo Telemed or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Training materials are licensed for your personal professional use and may not be redistributed. You retain ownership of your practice data and any content you upload; you grant us only the license needed to host and process it to provide the services.
Term, suspension, and termination
- Term. This agreement starts when you accept it and continues for your subscription period, renewing per your plan.
- Cancellation by you. You may cancel from your account or by written notice; access continues to the end of the paid period unless the Refund Policy provides otherwise.
- Suspension/termination by us. We may suspend or terminate for non-payment, credential lapse, security risk, unlawful use, or material breach. Where feasible we will give notice and a chance to cure.
- Effect. On termination, your license ends; you may export practice data for 30 days, after which Section 8 data-handling applies. Accrued fees remain payable; sections that by nature survive (IP, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability, governing law) survive termination.
Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The platform is provided "as is" and "as available." We target high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation, and we disclaim implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement to the maximum extent permitted by law. We are not liable for clinical outcomes, acts or omissions of Subscribers, or third-party services (payment processors, telecom carriers, e-prescribing networks).
To the maximum extent permitted by law, GoTo Telemed's aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the services will not exceed the subscription fees you paid in the twelve (12) months before the claim arose, and neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
Indemnification
You will indemnify and hold GoTo Telemed harmless from third-party claims arising out of your clinical services, your violation of law or professional standards, your breach of these Terms, or content you upload. We will indemnify you against third-party claims that the platform, as provided by us and used as permitted, infringes their U.S. intellectual-property rights.
Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Montana, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. The parties will first attempt good-faith informal resolution via in**@*********ed.com; unresolved disputes will be brought in the state or federal courts located in Lewis and Clark County, Montana, and each party consents to their jurisdiction. Either party may seek injunctive relief for IP or confidentiality breaches in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms as the platform evolves. Updates are posted on this page with a new version number; material changes are emailed to active Subscribers at least 30 days in advance. Continued use after an update takes effect constitutes acceptance. Your signed SLA continues to govern plan-specific deliverables for its stated term.
Privacy Policy
How we collect, use, protect, and share information across the GoTo Telemed platform.
Scope of this policy
This Privacy Policy applies to gototelemed.com, our subscriber portals (including the Provider Success Tool, provider telehealth console, training portal, and admin consoles), and any related checkout or communication channels we operate. It covers two distinct categories of information:
A. Subscriber and visitor information
Data about Providers who apply for, purchase, or use a GoTo Telemed subscription, and about visitors to our website. GoTo Telemed determines how this data is used and is responsible for it under this policy.
B. Provider-controlled practice data (including patient information)
Data that Subscribers enter, upload, or generate inside the software — such as patient intake forms, clinical notes, scheduling entries, or claims data. This data is owned and controlled by the Subscriber's practice. We process it solely to provide the subscribed services, under Part 1 above and, where required, a Business Associate Agreement (BAA).
Information we collect from Subscribers
When a licensed professional applies for or maintains a subscription, we collect information needed to verify eligibility, deliver the software, and provide support:
Account & identity
Name, email address, phone number, mailing address, profession and role (e.g., MD, NP, PA, RN, DDS, RDH), practice state(s), and login credentials (one-time passcodes; we do not store plaintext passwords).
Professional credentials
State license numbers, NPI numbers, DEA registration where applicable, board certifications, malpractice insurance certificates, and continuing-education or credentialing documents submitted during onboarding.
Subscription & payment records
Plan selected, invoices, payment confirmations, payout or refund records, and signed agreements (e.g., the SLA). Card payments are handled by PCI-compliant third-party payment processors and checkout platforms; we never store full card numbers on our servers.
Onboarding & support activity
Application form responses, milestone progress in the Provider Success Tool, training completion, support tickets, scheduled calls, and correspondence with our support contacts.
Usage & device information
IP address, browser and device type, pages visited, feature usage, and log data collected automatically to secure and improve the platform.
How we use Subscriber information
Deliver the subscription
Provision portal access, telehealth consoles, intake and scheduling tools, training content, and support services included in the Subscriber's plan.
Verify credentials and eligibility
Confirm that Subscribers are licensed professionals in good standing before activating clinical-facing tools, and coordinate credentialing workflows the Subscriber requests.
Process payments and prevent fraud
Bill subscription fees through our payment partners, keep transaction records, detect abuse, and meet the verification requirements of payment and checkout platforms we use.
Communicate
Send transactional messages (onboarding steps, invoices, security alerts — these cannot be opted out of), service updates, and optional educational or promotional content that Subscribers can unsubscribe from at any time.
Improve and secure the platform
Analyze aggregate usage, debug issues, and protect the service against unauthorized access.
Patient information: our role as a service provider
Some subscription tools allow Providers to collect and manage information about their own patients — for example intake questionnaires, appointment records, telehealth session links, clinical documentation, e-prescribing workflows, and insurance claims data. For this information:
- The Provider is the covered entity.The Subscriber's practice owns its patient records and is responsible for HIPAA notices, patient consents, and patient rights requests.
- GoTo Telemed acts as a Business Associate.We process protected health information (PHI) only to provide the subscribed services, under a Business Associate Agreement executed with the Subscriber, and never for our own marketing purposes.
- Access is role-restricted.Our personnel access PHI only when necessary for support, troubleshooting, or as directed by the Subscriber, with access logging and audit trails.
- Return or destruction.When a subscription ends, the Subscriber may export their practice data; we then delete or de-identify remaining copies in line with our retention schedule and the BAA.
Payments, checkout platforms, and other processors
Subscription fees are collected through third-party payment processors and commerce platforms. When you pay, your card or bank details are submitted directly to the processor under its own privacy policy; we receive confirmation of payment, the amount, and limited billing details needed for our records. These platforms may also require us to share business-verification information about GoTo Telemed itself as part of their compliance reviews.
We also use vetted service providers for cloud hosting, email delivery, video conferencing infrastructure, analytics, e-signature, and AI-assisted features. Each operates under contractual confidentiality and security obligations, and vendors that may handle PHI must sign a Business Associate Agreement.
Security
Encryption
TLS 1.2+ for all data in transit; AES-256 encryption for stored data and backups.
Access controls
One-time-passcode login, role-based access (admin, provider, support roles see only what their role requires), session timeouts, and token-bound sessions.
Monitoring & audit
Access logging, audit trails on sensitive records, and review of anomalous activity.
Infrastructure
U.S.-based, enterprise-grade cloud infrastructure with redundant backups and disaster-recovery procedures.
No system is perfectly secure. If a breach affecting personal information occurs, we will notify affected Subscribers — and support Providers in notifying their patients where PHI is involved — within the timelines required by HIPAA and applicable state law.
Data retention and deletion
Subscriber accounts
Retained while the subscription is active and for up to 7 years afterward for tax, contract, and dispute purposes.
Credentialing documents
Retained for the period required by credentialing standards and applicable law, then securely destroyed.
Provider-controlled patient data
Retained per the Subscriber's instructions and the BAA; Providers remain responsible for their own medical-record retention obligations.
Deletion requests
Verified deletion requests are processed within 60 days using cryptographic erasure and coordinated removal from backups, except where retention is legally required.
Your rights and choices
Subscribers and website visitors may request access to, correction of, a copy of, or deletion of their personal information by emailing pr*****@*********ed.com. Residents of California (CCPA/CPRA) and other states with comprehensive privacy laws (such as Virginia, Colorado, and Connecticut) have additional statutory rights, which we honor without discrimination. We respond to verified requests within the timelines those laws require.
Patients seeking access to or amendment of their medical records should contact their Provider; we will assist the Provider as their vendor.
Cookies and analytics
We use essential cookies for login sessions and security, and limited analytics cookies to understand how the website and portals are used. We do not use advertising cookies. You can control cookies through your browser settings; disabling essential cookies may prevent portal login.
International visitors and data location
GoTo Telemed is operated from the United States and stores platform data on U.S.-based servers. If you access the service from outside the U.S., your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States. Where EU/UK personal data is involved, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
Changes to this policy
We review this policy periodically and post updates on this page with a new version number. For material changes, active Subscribers receive email notice at least 30 days before the change takes effect. Version 2.0 restates our practices to accurately reflect GoTo Telemed's business model as a SaaS and technology provider to licensed professionals and supersedes Version 1.0.
