RxCollective operates a healthcare technology platform and provides non-clinical management and administrative services to healthcare organizations. Our services include technology infrastructure, patient workflow support, administrative services, provider coordination, billing and collection support, pharmacy coordination, and related operational services.
This Privacy Policy describes how RxCollective collects, uses, maintains, protects, and discloses information obtained through our website, technology platform, and related services.
1. Our Role
RxCollective provides technology and non-clinical infrastructure that supports healthcare organizations and independent healthcare providers.
Healthcare organizations contract with RxCollective to access and utilize the RxCollective platform and its integrated service infrastructure.

Those independent licensed healthcare professionals are responsible for evaluating patients and exercising independent professional judgment regarding diagnosis, treatment, medical necessity, and prescribing.
RxCollective does not control, direct, or interfere with the independent clinical judgment of healthcare professionals.
