Effective Date: 09/17/2020

Lush Era Limited (hereinafter referred to as "Lush Era") develops and operates a remote medical communication platform (hereinafter referred to as "Dr.HereOnline" or "Platform"), offering website and mobile application services to facilitate communication between healthcare providers and the general public. These Terms of Use govern the relationship between Dr.HereOnline and its users, who may be healthcare providers or smart clinics (hereinafter referred to as "Experts") or healthcare consumers (hereinafter referred to as "Members"), collectively referred to as "Users" or "You".

Dr.HereOnline provides various remote healthcare services, including Membership Services and Expert Services.

  • "Membership Services" offered by Dr.HereOnline encompass: provision of a secure cloud database for storing basic health information and examination data records, generation of health analysis reports, and implementation of automatic tracking and reminders to enable Members to manage their health at any time. Members may search for and select Experts on the Platform, engage in real-time online consultations, grant Experts access to their personal health information and data, or request to import their personal health information and examination data stored in the clinic into the Platform's cloud database. Additionally, Members can share their daily body index measurements with other Members to monitor the health status of family and friends.

  • "Expert Services" provided by Dr.HereOnline include: creation of personalized webpages for self-introduction and recommendation in various formats, ability to manage their own consulting service availability, and implementation of diverse pricing models for Experts or smart clinics. The messaging functionality caters to the online consultation requirements of both Experts and Members. Upon obtaining Member authorization, Experts may access the Member's health information and examination data, review body index measurements or abnormal test results, and schedule follow-up reminders for remote consultation and health management purposes. Experts may send messages to all or specific groups of Members and proactively notify them of new announcements. Experts can search for and consult with other Experts in different specialties on the Platform and refer Members as needed. After receiving import requests from Members, smart clinics can transfer the Members' information and data from the clinic into the Platform's cloud database. The Platform will support the smart clinic in tracking and reminding Members of follow-up appointments.
