where timely and cost effective accessibility to appropriate HCPs is a
challenge and I am in such a situation.

available to remotely located Health Care Professionals (HCPs) through new
technologies for providing healthcare services. Provision of healthcare
services is entirely in accordance with such HI / VC.
That The HCP may contact / consult me through telephone / VC.
That the liability of TM / RPC service provider is limited to appropriate
interpretation of HI / VC that is presented to that HCP.
That service provider is not liable for complete, partial loss of HI/VC and/or
distortion of the same during the transfer / presentation, due to technology
failure.
That submitting this informed consent online is equivalent to my
signing this informed consent document.
That after understanding the contents of this informed consent and after
clarifying all my doubts, I have signed / submitted this informed consent to
execute my informed choice. At any point of time, now and/or in future, I will
not hold and/or caused to be held the concerned HCPs, staff of ATHS and/or
ATHS responsible/liable for not achieving the expected outcome(s) of the TM
