We honestly haven't faced much scrutiny from regulators yet (although I expect that may change once we become more popular). We fall pretty squarely into the existing rules on symptom checkers which have become pretty prolific on the web.
- chinathrow 10y agoDoes that mean you have to write after each message your bot sends a disclaimer such as "This is not medical advise, go see a doctor"? Those symptom checkers have them most of the time - I just can't see it fit within a bot as well.
- techwizrd 10y agoNot really. We have a legal agreement, and then the users state their chief complaint. We record their symptoms as we ask them questions and produce a list of possible conditions along with their disposition (e.g., Go see a doctor in 24 hours, visit an emergency room, home care, etc.) based partially on the Schmitt-Thompson protocol. Schmitt-Thompson is the current battle-tested standard for medical triage.
