You should only use Symptom Checker for your individual ailments or as a proxy for another individual, but only if you are a proxy in MyAtriumHealth for that other individual.
If any of your symptoms last longer than 24 hours, you should contact your doctor regarding those symptoms. If Symptom Checker suggests taking an over-the-counter medication, you should read the label before taking the medication. The label provides important information including the medication’s ingredients, side effects, warnings, and possible drug interactions.
You may view the care guidance you receive based on your answers the next time you review Symptom Checker. Your health care provider will have access to the questions and your answers after you use Symptom Checker.

1.f. Health Messaging
Health Messaging is to be used for non-urgent, non-life threatening communication. If you have an urgent or life threatening issue, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room. Your decision to communicate with a provider is voluntary and does not affect your ability to contact your facility directly to speak with your healthcare provider and use the medical services available in the traditional environment (such as in the physical presence of a provider or in a hospital setting). Secure messages may be screened by administrative staff before being forwarded to a healthcare provider. Health Messaging is intended to supplement and not replace your existing primary care physician relationship.
Health Messaging is provided over a secure connection. Secure messaging is not email. No part of the actual secure message will be transmitted via email. Security measures are in place to protect the privacy of the information transmitted. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and for restricting access to your device. It is your responsibility to ensure that your personal information is not compromised due to the lack of secure equipment and/or surroundings.
