1. Purpose of the Service

Second Opinion by Qikplus is designed to facilitate access to medical second-opinion services. The platform may allow patients to submit medical information, reports, diagnostic images, prescriptions, and other relevant documentation for review by appropriately qualified healthcare professionals.

The purpose of obtaining a second opinion is to provide additional professional medical input that may help you better understand your diagnosis, treatment options, or proposed course of care.

2. The Service Does Not Provide Emergency Care

Second Opinion by Qikplus is not an emergency medical service. The platform should not be used when immediate medical assessment or treatment is required.

3. What Is a Medical Second Opinion?

A medical second opinion is an additional assessment or professional perspective concerning an existing medical diagnosis, proposed treatment, or healthcare plan.

A second opinion may provide additional information or perspective, but it does not necessarily replace the advice or treatment plan provided by your treating healthcare professional.

Different healthcare professionals may reasonably reach different clinical conclusions based on the information available to them.

4. Not a Substitute for Your Treating Doctor

Information or opinions obtained through Second Opinion by Qikplus are intended to supplement, and not automatically replace, your relationship with your treating physician, specialist, hospital, or other healthcare provider.

Your treating healthcare professional may have access to additional information, physical examination findings, medical history, diagnostic tests, and other clinical information that may not be available through our platform.

5. Responsibility for Medical Decisions

You are responsible for discussing your healthcare options with an appropriately qualified healthcare professional and making decisions that are appropriate for your individual circumstances.

You should consider your medical history, current condition, allergies, medications, test results, treatment preferences, and other relevant factors before making a healthcare decision.

Do not start, stop, change, or delay medication, treatment, surgery, or other medical care solely on the basis of information obtained from this website.

6. Accuracy and Completeness of Information

The quality of a second opinion may depend on the accuracy, completeness, and relevance of the information submitted for review.

You are responsible for providing information that is as accurate and complete as reasonably possible, including relevant medical history, reports, medications, allergies, symptoms, and other information requested as part of the service.

If important information is missing or inaccurate, the resulting professional opinion may be affected.

7. Limitations of Remote Review

Depending on the service, a healthcare professional may review information remotely and may not have the opportunity to physically examine you or access every aspect of your medical history.

Remote review may therefore have limitations compared with an in-person clinical consultation.

A healthcare professional may recommend an in-person examination, additional testing, or consultation with another specialist where appropriate.

8. Patient Responsibility

By using the service, you acknowledge that you are responsible for:

• Providing accurate and complete information.
• Providing relevant medical records and documentation where requested.
• Informing healthcare professionals about relevant medical conditions, medications, and allergies.
• Following appropriate medical advice and seeking follow-up care when recommended.
• Seeking emergency care when your condition requires immediate attention.
• Discussing second-opinion recommendations with your treating healthcare professional.
