Trimi understands the importance of confidentiality and privacy regarding your health information. Please see: (1) our Privacy Policy available on the Sites trytrimi.com for a description of how we may collect and use your personal information, and (2) the Trimi Professionals Notice of Privacy Practices applicable to Beluga Health, P.A. and similar affiliated professional entities for a description of how these entities may use and disclose your medical information and how you may access that information. The Privacy Policy and Trimi Professionals Notice of Privacy Practices are hereby incorporated into these Terms of Use by reference and constitute a part of these Terms of Use.

Your relationship with Trimi

Trimi does not provide any medical services, including via the Sites and Services. Rather, Trimi provides a technology platform for you to access a health care provider employed or contracted with Beluga Health, P.A. or similar affiliated professional entities and obtain access to additional information, which you may or may not choose to utilize in planning your health care and wellness. The health and wellness resources made available through our Services are not a substitute for direct in-person health care services in all cases. The decision to focus on diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or both, rests with you and the health care provider. You understand that by coordinating and in certain cases consulting with a Beluga Health, P.A. or affiliate health care provider through the Services, you are not entering into a provider-patient relationship with Trimi.

By accepting the Terms of Use, you agree and consent to Trimi, Trimi affiliates, or health care providers sending you disclosures, notices, messages, reports, and other communications. It is your responsibility to monitor these communications. You acknowledge and agree that you will not hold us or any Trimi affiliate liable for any loss, injury, or claim of any kind resulting from your failure to read these communications or for your failure to comply with any treatment recommendations contained in these communications.

Communications by text message and email

By opting-in to receive text (SMS) messages from Trimi or by sending Trimi an initial text message (an “SMS Enrollment”), you consent to receiving text messages regarding your Trimi account and use of the Sites and Services. These text messages may include order confirmations, shipping notifications, messages from your healthcare provider, and other transactional messages, as well as promotional and marketing notifications, to the extent you have opted-in to receive such messages from Trimi.

With your SMS Enrollment, you represent and understand that: (1) you are the owner or authorized user of the mobile device you used in order to initiate the SMS Enrollment, (2) you are authorized to approve any applicable charges in connection with the text messages you send to and receive from Trimi, (3) you will be responsible for all messaging and other data charges that may apply for any text messages sent to you from Trimi, or from Trimi to you, and (4) neither Trimi, nor your or Trimi’s mobile carriers, will be liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

Note that access to the Services and the Sites is not conditioned upon your consent to receive marketing or promotional text messages from Trimi, and you can opt-out of any of Trimi’s SMS services at any time by texting “STOP” to the message received, from the mobile device that is subscribed to receive the SMS messages. After you send the text message “STOP” to us, we may send you one final text message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed. If you have opted-in to receive more than one type of text message from Trimi, you will need to opt-out of each Trimi SMS service to which you are subscribed. Until you have done so, you may continue to receive the types of text messages from Trimi that you have opted-in to receive but have not unsubscribed from.

You also understand that while Trimi takes your privacy and the security of your health and other sensitive information very seriously, the transmission of information over the internet and mobile networks is not 100% secure. Text messages and emails that you send to or receive from Trimi are not encrypted, which means that it is possible they may be intercepted by third parties. If you choose to send or receive information about your health or any other sensitive information by text message or email, you do so at your own risk. By initiating an SMS Enrollment, you consent to sending text messages to Trimi, and receiving text messages from Trimi, that are not encrypted. Likewise, by emailing Trimi or giving Trimi your email, you consent to receiving unencrypted emails messages from Trimi.

If you are experiencing any issues with Trimi’s text messaging or email services, or if you have any concerns about sending or receiving any sensitive information through text or email, please contact us directly at care@trytrimi.com. If you have questions specific to your text or data plan, please contact your wireless provider.

Consultative service

In some cases, a Beluga Health, P.A. or affiliated health care provider may use the Services to provide advice or treatment to you. A health care provider consulting with you through the Services may not have the benefit of information that would be obtained by examining you in person and observing your physical condition, in each instance. Therefore, the health care provider may not be aware of facts or information that may affect his or her opinion regarding a potential diagnosis or treatment recommendation. To reduce the risk to you of this limitation, Trimi strongly encourages you to provide all relevant information and discuss any and all diagnosis and treatment options with a health care provider. Moreover, a health care provider utilizing Trimi may be limited by state law in prescribing certain medications to you without first conducting an in-person physical examination. By deciding to engage the Services, you acknowledge and agree that you are aware of these limitations and agree to assume the risk of these limitations. Furthermore, you agree and accept that: (i) any diagnosis you may receive is limited and, in some cases, provisional; (ii) the health care services are not intended, in all cases, to replace a full medical evaluation or an in-person visit with a health care provider; (iii) a health care provider acting through the Services may not have important information that is usually obtained through a “hands-on” physical examination; and (iv) the absence of a physical examination may affect the health care provider’s ability to diagnose any potential condition, disease or injury.

For more information regarding the health care services offered by health care providers utilizing the Services, please visit trytrimi.com.

Except for specific communications received from Beluga Health, P.A. or affiliate health care organizations and providers, none of the Content you receive through the Sites should be considered medical advice.

Registration and user accounts

Although certain parts of the Sites are accessible by any individual, you are obligated to register with Trimi in order to access the Services. The Services are available only to users who have registered with Trimi and to other persons affiliated with Trimi who have been granted accounts with usernames and passwords (“Secure Users”). If you are a Secure User, you agree to provide information that is accurate, complete and correct, and to accurately maintain and update any information about yourself that you have provided to Trimi.

Trimi may take any and all actions it deems necessary or reasonable to maintain the security of the Sites, Services and your Secure User account.

You agree to keep confidential your username and password and to exit from your Secure User account at the end of each session. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account and for maintaining the confidentiality of your password.

Special notice to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries

If you are a beneficiary of a federal or state health care program, and such program does not pay for certain services or products rendered to you, you may have to pay for these services and products. As we understand it, neither federal nor state health care programs currently pay for any of the medical services or products made available through the Services performed by affiliated health care organizations or providers, at least not in the way such services or products are provided (i.e., using telemedicine and bundled treatment offerings). By agreeing to use the Services, you acknowledge and agree that: (1) you will pay directly for any medical services and products provided to you, and (2) neither Trimi nor any Trimi affiliated health care organization or provider will bill any federal or state health care program for such medical services or products.

Testosterone health program terms and conditions

This section describes additional terms and conditions applicable to your participation in the Testosterone Health Program (the “Program”) offered through Trimi and the affiliated professional entities that provide services on the Trimi platform. The Program is designed to provide access to routine and necessary services for the management of low testosterone in biological males caused by secondary hypogonadism. The Program is a membership-based service through which eligible Members can obtain limited medical care, including at-home phlebotomy services, medication at the discretion of the Member’s provider, and pharmacy services for a recurring monthly payment. The Program is not health insurance or a substitute for health insurance, does not meet any individual health insurance mandate under federal or state law, and cannot replace your in-person provider relationships. You should keep your existing health insurance coverage while you are participating in the Program or obtain health insurance coverage if you do not currently have it.

Eligibility limitations applicable to the Program

Except in New York, Florida, and Illinois, in order to be eligible to participate in the program you must have a commercial health insurance benefits plan, including, but not limited to, an employer-provided health insurance plan, that may be billed for laboratory services. To learn more about billing for laboratory services please see the “Laboratory testing services not included” section below. You understand and agree that the affiliated professional entities, the healthcare professionals practicing on the Bask platform, and the pharmacies in the Bask Pharmacy Network will not bill your health insurance benefits plan for the health care and pharmacy services and products that you receive as part of the Program and that such health care and pharmacy services and products may not be eligible for reimbursement. You understand and agree that you are responsible for all fees due to receive health care and pharmacy services and products consistent with the “Payment” and “Special notice to Medicare and Medicaid beneficiaries” sections above.

Onboarding and diagnosis

In order to participate in the Program, you must be evaluated by a doctor or nurse practitioner on the Trimi platform and, in the professional judgment of such health care provider, meet the clinical criteria for participation. To be evaluated for participation, you must complete an initial onboarding telehealth medical assessment (the “Diagnosis Online Visit”) with a doctor or nurse practitioner and obtain laboratory blood testing to measure your key physiological indicators including, but not limited to, your serum testosterone levels. If, following a review of the laboratory results and the Diagnosis Online Visit, your health care provider determines that you are a good candidate for treatment through the Program, he or she may initiate such treatment by writing you a prescription.

You acknowledge and agree that, even if you do not meet the clinical criteria for participation in the Program, you are responsible for payment of the cost of the Diagnosis Online Visit and any laboratory testing that your health care provider orders for you and such cost is not included in the Membership Fee.

Membership and Additional Services

In order to participate in the Program, you must periodically obtain medically necessary laboratory testing (bloodwork). As part of the Membership Services, you will receive up to eight (8) at-home blood draws from our partner mobile phlebotomy provider. You agree to receive at-home phlebotomy services from our mobile phlebotomy partner for any laboratory testing required by your Trimi-affiliated health care provider as part of the Program.

Laboratory testing services not included

In order to participate in the Program, you must periodically obtain medically necessary laboratory testing (bloodwork). Your blood sample, once collected by our mobile phlebotomy partner, will be processed and tested by Quest Diagnostics. You acknowledge and agree that your Membership Fee does not include the cost of any laboratory services provided by Quest and that Trimi is not responsible for any such costs. Quest determines the charges for its laboratory testing services and may bill you directly for any amounts that you owe Quest based on your agreement with Quest. Your payment arrangement with Quest is not governed by these Terms of Use. Contact Quest directly for more information about pricing and payment for laboratory testing services.

Payment of Membership Fee

You will have an opportunity to review and agree to the cost of Membership (the “Membership Fee”) during the checkout process that is part of the Diagnosis Online Visit. You may also view the costs associated with Membership on the Program webpage located here. Once you begin participation in the Program, your Membership Fee will be automatically charged to your payment card or PayPal account on file on a recurring, monthly basis (approximately every 28-30 days) until your Membership is canceled. The initial payment must be made the day your Membership commences. Once paid, your Membership Fee is non-refundable. You may cancel your Membership at any time by calling us at (305) 563-9761, emailing us at care@trytrimi.com, or logging into your Secure User account.

If you choose to have your prescription filled at a local pharmacy, your Membership Fee will not include the cost of medication and pharmacy fulfillment. If you transfer your prescription from a local pharmacy to the Trimi Pharmacy Network, the cost of medication and pharmacy fulfillment will be added to your Membership Fee at the beginning of the next billing cycle. You may transfer your prescription to a local pharmacy or to the Bask Pharmacy Network at any time by calling us at (305) 563-9761 or emailing us at care@trytrimi.com.

Canceling your Membership

You may cancel your Membership at any time by calling us at (305) 563-9761, emailing us at care@trytrimi.com, or logging into your Secure User account. Any Membership Fees paid prior to the date of cancellation are non-refundable.

Delaying your Membership

If you would like to delay your billing date for any reason, you may delay by logging into your Secure User account, calling us at (305) 563-9761, or emailing us at care@trytrimi.com. You may learn more about how to initiate a delay through your Secure User account in the FAQs located here. When you delay, you will not be charged a Membership Fee until the end of the delay period that you have selected. During such period, you will not be eligible to receive any Membership Services, except you may still message your Trimi-affiliated health care professional through Trimi’s secure messaging application at any time. Delaying could impact your ability to adhere to your treatment plan. As a result, at your Trimi-affiliated health care provider’s discretion, you may need to be re-evaluated and undergo additional laboratory testing before continuing with treatment (a “Continuation Visit”) at the end of a delay period. If you delay for a cumulative period of eight (8) consecutive weeks or more without scheduling a Continuation Visit, your Membership may be canceled without notice.

Pausing your Membership

If you would like to pause your Membership by turning off auto-payments (going “On-demand”) for any reason, you may do so by logging into your Secure User account, calling us at (305) 563-9761, or emailing us at care@trytrimi.com. You may learn more about how to go On-demand through your Secure User account in the FAQs located here. When you go On-demand, you will not be charged any additional monthly Membership Fee payments until you initiate a charge by ordering a refill of your medication or turning auto-payments back on. You will receive Membership Services through the last day of the monthly billing cycle for which you have paid the monthly Membership Fee. Thereafter, other than messaging your Trimi-affiliated health care professional through Trimi’s secure messaging application, you will not be eligible to receive any Membership Services until you initiate another charge as described above. Going On-demand could impact your ability to adhere to your treatment plan. As a result, at your Trimi-affiliated health care provider’s discretion, you may need to undergo a Continuation Visit before continuing with treatment at the end of an On-demand period. If you remain On-demand for a cumulative period of eight (8) consecutive weeks or more without scheduling a Continuation Visit, your Membership may be canceled without notice.

No Testosterone Replacement Therapy

The Program is not appropriate for patients seeking testosterone replacement therapy (commonly referred to as “TRT”), such as testosterone patches, gels, injections, or pellets. Providers participating in the Program cannot prescribe TRT by telehealth. Please contact your in-person provider to seek TRT options.

No representation, warranty, or guarantee of continued availability of the Program

NEITHER TRIMI NOR THE AFFILIATED PROFESSIONAL ENTITIES MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, OR GUARANTEES REGARDING THE CONTINUED AVAILABILITY OF THE PROGRAM. THE PROGRAM MAY BE DISCONTINUED AT ANY TIME AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF TRIMI AND/OR THE AFFILIATED PROFESSIONAL ENTITIES. YOU WILL BE GIVEN 30 DAYS’ NOTICE OF ANY SUCH DISCONTINUATION SO THAT YOU MAY FIND A LOCAL PROVIDER WITH WHOM TO CONTINUE TREATMENT.

Asynchronous Telemedicine Informed Consent

Thank you for choosing Beluga Health, P.A. (“Beluga”)! You are viewing this form because you have elected to engage in asynchronous telemedicine visits with a Beluga healthcare practitioner. Your practitioner is a board-certified physician licensed in your state. By clicking “I Agree,” I ACKNOWLEDGE I HAVE READ AND UNDERSTAND THE TERMS PRESENTED BELOW, AND UNDERSTAND THE RISKS AND BENEFITS OF ASYNCHRONOUS TELEMEDICINE, AND BY ACCEPTING THESE TERMS OF USE I HEREBY GIVE MY INFORMED CONSENT TO PARTICIPATE IN ASYNCHRONOUS TELEMEDICINE UNDER THESE TERMS.

What is Telemedicine?

Telemedicine is the delivery of healthcare services, including examination, consultation, diagnosis, and treatment, through electronic communication technologies when you (the patient) are located in a different location than your healthcare practitioner. Beluga allows you to receive treatment from a healthcare practitioner without having to travel to another location or schedule a separate appointment and helps you avoid long wait times that you might otherwise experience at an in-person visit.

What is Asynchronous Telemedicine?

Asynchronous telemedicine is one way to deliver telemedicine. Asynchronous communication is often referred to as “store-and-forward” communication, where participants submit and collect data at different times. An example of asynchronous communication is a telemedicine encounter with a healthcare practitioner that involves sending photos, video, or other communications via email or text message. “Asynchronous” means “not occurring at the same time” and is different from “synchronous” telemedicine, which generally includes visits conducted in real-time between patients and healthcare practitioners through audio or video means (e.g., live phone calls or video-conferencing). Healthcare practitioners may use asynchronous telemedicine to aid in diagnoses and medical consultations when live communication or face-to-face contact is not possible or necessary. Beluga’s platform (“Platform”), in particular, allows for the following asynchronous telemedicine services: 1) text-based healthcare practitioner-patient interactions through short message service (“SMS”) and multimedia messaging service (“MMS”) communications; and 2) secure information collection through asynchronous store-and-forward patient questionnaires.

What are the Possible Risks to Using Asynchronous Telemedicine?

As with any medical treatment, there are potential risks associated with the use of asynchronous telemedicine. Beluga believes that the likelihood of these risks materializing is very low. These risks may include, without limitation, the following:

Delays in medical evaluation and consultation or treatment may occur due to deficiencies or failures of the equipment or the Internet, which may include poor data quality, Internet outages, or other service interruption issues. You may reschedule the visit with your healthcare practitioner should these interruptions occur.
Security protocols could fail, causing a breach of privacy of personal medical information.
Because Beluga does not have access to your complete medical records, if you do not disclose to your healthcare practitioner a full list of your medical history including diagnoses, treatments, medications/supplements, and allergies, adverse treatment, drug interactions or allergic reactions, or other negative outcomes may occur.
Asynchronous telemedicine services are NOT emergency services and your Personal Data (as defined in the Beluga Privacy Policy) WILL NOT BE MONITORED 24/7. If you think you are experiencing a medical emergency, CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY.
THE CARE YOU RECEIVE WILL BE AT THE SOLE DISCRETION OF THE HEALTHCARE PRACTITIONER WHO IS TREATING YOU, WITH NO GUARANTEE OF DIAGNOSIS, TREATMENT, OR PRESCRIPTION. THE HEALTHCARE PRACTITIONER WILL DETERMINE WHETHER OR NOT THE CONDITION BEING DIAGNOSED AND/OR TREATED IS APPROPRIATE FOR THE CARE PROVIDED THROUGH AN ASYNCHRONOUS TELEMEDICINE ENCOUNTER VIA THE PLATFORM.

Your Rights and Acknowledgements:

Privacy Rights: Your privacy rights during asynchronous telemedicine consultations are equivalent to those you would have in an in-person visit. No identifiable images or information from the telemedicine interaction will be shared with researchers or other entities without your explicit written consent. For more details on how we ensure the protection of your privacy, please refer to the Beluga Privacy Policy.
Electronic Communication: Asynchronous telemedicine may entail the electronic exchange of your personal medical information with healthcare practitioners who could be situated in different locations, potentially out of state.
Anticipated Benefits: While you can anticipate certain benefits from the use of asynchronous telemedicine, it’s important to understand that results cannot be guaranteed or assured.
Medical Record Inclusion: All information you submit to Beluga via text message and that your healthcare practitioner inputs into the Beluga Platform will be incorporated into your medical record.
Healthcare Practitioner Identification: The initial text message from your healthcare practitioner will include their name and credentials, which will be documented in the Beluga Platform as part of your medical record.
Withdrawal of Consent: You have the right to withdraw your consent and request the deletion of your patient profile at any time by contacting admin@belugahealth.com.
Sharing of Healthcare Information: Your healthcare information may be shared with others in alignment with the Beluga Privacy Policy and relevant regulations or laws of the state or territory where you are located. Such sharing may occur in certain circumstances, including:
Upon issuance of a valid court order for medical records.
For reporting suspected abuse, neglect, or domestic violence.
To prevent or reduce a serious threat to anyone’s health or safety.

Call/Email/Text Messaging Consent:

You explicitly consent to Beluga or its healthcare practitioners contacting you via calls, emails, or text messages (both SMS and MMS) concerning Personal Data (as defined in the Beluga Privacy Policy), appointments, or other matters related to your telemedicine encounters using the contact details you have provided. These communications may be made using an auto-dialer or pre-recorded/artificial voice, even if your number is listed on a do-not-call registry. Standard rates from your phone carrier may apply. This consent is voluntary and not a condition of purchase. You may withdraw this consent at any time by emailing admin@belugahealth.com.

This Asynchronous Telemedicine Informed Consent remains valid throughout your treatment with Beluga.
