Telehealth document collection

Frequently asked questions

What consent do I need for video therapy in Ontario?

Telepsychotherapy consent should cover the platform, privacy risks, emergency procedures, and client location. Collect it before the first virtual session alongside standard informed consent for treatment.

Can intake be completed entirely online?

Yes. Clients can upload telehealth consent and questionnaires via a secure guest link (no account needed; email OTP verification) or the my-id.ca portal before the first video appointment.

Does Hivi-X provide a video therapy platform?

No. Hivi-X collects intake documents only. You use your chosen telehealth platform for sessions.
