Terms of Service
Last updated: April 3, 2026
I. Introduction
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website, platform, and services provided by Novea Health ("Novea," "we," "us," or "our"), located at novea.health (the "Platform"). By accessing or using the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated herein by reference.
II. Description of Services
Novea is a telehealth platform that facilitates connections between users and independently licensed health care providers ("Providers") for perimenopause and menopause consultations and treatment, including hormone replacement therapy ("HRT"). Novea also facilitates prescription fulfillment through licensed pharmacy partners.
Novea is not a medical group, health care provider, or pharmacy. Novea does not provide medical advice, diagnose conditions, or prescribe medications. All medical decisions, diagnoses, and prescriptions are made solely by independently licensed Providers. Novea facilitates the technology platform and administrative services that enable you to connect with Providers and receive treatment.
The Providers who deliver health care services through the Platform are independent practitioners and are not employees or agents of Novea. Novea is not responsible for the medical advice, diagnoses, treatments, or prescriptions provided by any Provider.
III. Not for Emergencies
The Platform is not designed for medical emergencies. If you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room immediately. Do not rely on the Platform for urgent or emergency medical care.
IV. Eligibility
To use our Services, you must:
- Be at least 18 years of age
- Be a resident of a state in which our Services are available
- Be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement
- Have access to a compatible device and internet connection
V. Availability of Services
Our Services are available only in the United States and only in states where our affiliated Providers are licensed to practice. The availability of specific treatments may vary by state. We make no representation that our Services are available or appropriate for use in any particular location.
VI. Risks of Telehealth Services
By using our Services, you acknowledge and understand that telehealth consultations involve the delivery of health care services using electronic communications. You understand that:
- Telehealth consultations are not the same as in-person medical visits and may have limitations
- Providers may not have access to your complete medical history
- Technical difficulties may interrupt or delay your consultation
- In rare cases, information transmitted may not be sufficient for appropriate medical decision-making
- A Provider may determine that telehealth services are not appropriate for your condition and may recommend in-person care
VII. User Accounts and Responsibilities
You may be required to create an account to use certain features of the Platform. You agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and in any medical intake forms
- Maintain the security of your account credentials and not share them with others
- Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account
- Accept responsibility for all activity that occurs under your account
You understand that providing inaccurate or incomplete health information may result in inappropriate treatment recommendations and could pose a risk to your health.
VIII. Prescription Policy
Prescriptions are issued solely at the discretion of independently licensed Providers based on their clinical judgment. Not all users will qualify for a prescription. If a Provider determines that a prescription is appropriate, the prescription will be sent to a licensed pharmacy partner for fulfillment and delivery.
Novea does not guarantee that any particular medication or treatment will be prescribed, available, or effective for your condition.
IX. Payment and Pricing
By purchasing Services through the Platform, you agree to pay all applicable fees. Prices for consultations, medications, and other services are displayed on the Platform and may change from time to time.
- Consultation fees are non-refundable once a Provider has reviewed your medical intake
- Medication costs are separate from consultation fees
- Recurring subscription charges, if applicable, will be billed automatically until you cancel
- You may cancel a subscription at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period
Our Services are cash-pay and are not billed to insurance. You are responsible for determining whether any portion of your costs may be reimbursable through your health insurance, flexible spending account (FSA), or health savings account (HSA).
Payments are processed securely through Stripe. By providing payment information, you agree to Stripe's terms of service.
