Frequently asked questions

Do we need a separate business associate agreement (BAA)?

Yes. We provide a standard BAA that your legal team can review. It covers all call handling, recordings, and data storage and is in place before your first call goes live.

Are call recordings stored on secure servers?

Yes. All recordings and transcripts are encrypted at rest on healthcare-compliant infrastructure, segregated by customer, and accessible only to your authorized staff via secure login.

Can we listen to a call recording if a patient disputes what happened?

Yes. Your staff can access call recordings through a secure portal. Your compliance team can pull transcripts for quality assurance, training, or patient disputes.

How long do you retain call data?

We retain recordings and logs according to your policy. You tell us: 30 days, 90 days, 1 year, or longer. We delete or archive per your schedule.

Is there a risk of patient data being exposed to other customers?

No. Each customer's data is encrypted and segregated. We use role-based access controls so your team can only see your own calls and records.

Do you comply with state telehealth regulations?

Yes. We track state requirements for consent, audio-only calls, prescribing restrictions, and documentation. If you operate in multiple states, we log which rules apply to each call.
