What is Medication Abortion
Medication abortion, also called “the abortion pill,” is a safe and effective way to end an early pregnancy. It’s been used around the world for decades by millions of people. Using standard protocols, the abortion pill has a success rate of more than 95%. During medication abortion, the person takes two different medicines to end their pregnancy: mifepristone, which blocks the hormone progesterone to stop the pregnancy from growing, and misoprostol, which empties the uterus. Your doctor or nurse will review this information with you, including instructions on how to take the medicines.
You may be eligible for abortion pills if:
- You are at least 16 years old
- You are in California, New York, or Massachusetts
- The first day of your last period was less than 70 days (10 weeks) ago

Have questions?
How does medication abortion work?
Medication abortion is a safe and effective way to end an early pregnancy. In general, it can be used up to 11 weeks of pregnancy. Using standard protocols, it has a success rate of more than 95%. Medication abortion is sometimes called ‘the abortion pill,’ but it’s actually two different medicines that are taken to end a pregnancy.
The first medicine is called mifepristone. This is a pill that blocks the hormone progesterone. This stops the pregnancy from growing. The second medicine is called misoprostol. Misoprostol can be taken in different ways. Your doctor or nurse will review these options and all instructions with you.
We’ll check in with you within one week of taking the medicines. Two to three weeks after you take the medicines, we’ll check in again and give you instructions for taking a special pregnancy test, which comes in your kit. And we’ll be here every step of the way if you have any questions or concerns.
Is this safe?
All types of abortion are considered very safe. Medication abortion has been used for many years in the US and around the world. Like with most medical treatments there can be some risks. Complications are rare, but can happen. Serious complications happen in less than 0.4% of patients. Some of the possible complications of medication abortion are:
-Risk that the medicines don’t work to end the pregnancy. This could mean needing to take more medicines or needing to go to a clinic for an abortion procedure.
-Bleeding more than expected
-Infection
-Blood clots
-Having an allergic reaction to one of the medicines
-Death (extremely rare)
Remember, we’ll be with you every step of the way for questions or concerns.
Why don't I need an ultrasound?
Most people don’t need an ultrasound before a medication abortion. An ultrasound before an abortion can confirm that the pregnancy is inside the uterus and confirm how far along the pregnancy is.
To help figure out if you should have an ultrasound, we’ll ask you a few questions about your health history. If you have any risk factors or possible signs of an ectopic pregnancy (a pregnancy outside of the uterus), we’ll recommend you get an ultrasound. Risk factors or possible signs of an ectopic pregnancy include: if you’ve ever had an ectopic pregnancy before; if you have an IUD or had one at the time you got pregnant; a history of surgery on your fallopian tubes; or if you’ve had vaginal bleeding or abdominal pain since your last period.
Once you know you are pregnant and have taken a home pregnancy test, we can use the first day of your last period to figure out how long you have been pregnant. The first day of your last period is day 1. For people with regular periods, this is a reliable way to know how long you have been pregnant. If you are not sure when your last period was or if your periods are irregular, you may need an ultrasound to find out how far along you are in your pregnancy.
If an ultrasound is recommended, we may either order one for you or help you find another provider for in-person care.
What’s the difference between getting a medication abortion through Sunny and getting one in a clinic?
The medicines given for medication abortion with Sunny are the same medicines given for a medication abortion in a clinic. With Sunny, if you are medically eligible, you can have your medication abortion at home without needing to schedule an appointment or travel anywhere in person. In a clinic, you may have the option of having an ultrasound before the abortion. For most people, special testing or an ultrasound is not needed before a medication abortion.
What can I expect during and after taking the medication?
Once you receive your package, you can start the medicines in the privacy of your home or the location of your choice. Here are the steps you will follow:
-
- First you’ll take the mifepristone pill
- Next, you’ll generally wait between 24 to 48 hours before taking the misoprostol.
- Then, you’ll take the misoprostol. Misoprostol can be taken 1) placed between the cheek and gum; 2)under the tongue; or 3) placed in the vagina.
- Your doctor or nurse will give you more information about the different ways that misoprostol can be used.
- If you are more than 9 weeks pregnant, you’ll repeat a second dose of misoprostol after 4 hours.
- We’ll check in with you within 1 week of taking the medicines.
- 4 weeks after taking the medicines, you’ll take a pregnancy test and we’ll check in with you again.
- If at any point before, during, or after your abortion we recommend that you seek in-person care, we’ll let you know and help you figure out how to get care.
After taking the misoprostol, most people will have bleeding and cramping. The heaviest bleeding usually happens 2-5 hours after using misoprostol and usually slows within 24 hours. But some people bleed heavier for longer than that. Bleeding may be heavier than a regular period and you may see some blood clots. For cramping, pain medicines like ibuprofen or tylenol can help. A heating pad can also help. Cramping will gradually improve over hours to a day.
Some people get fever, chills, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea or flu-like symptoms after taking misoprostol. These should go away within 6 hours of using the misoprostol. Ibuprofen can help. You may feel a bit tired for a day or 2, but this should get better soon.
If you feel ill, have belly pain, nausea, vomiting or diarrhea, or have a fever >100.4 more than 24 hours after using misoprostol, please contact us or seek medical care right away
Please contact us or seek medical attention right away if you soak through 2 maxi pads per hour for at least 2 hours in a row.
How will I know if it worked?
After taking the misoprostol (the second medicine) you should have cramping and bleeding within 24 hours. Contact us if you don’t bleed after using misoprostol.
Most pregnancy symptoms like nausea and vomiting should also start to go away within a few days. Breast tenderness can last longer, up to 7 to 10 days. If you still feel like you are pregnant a week after taking the medicines, please contact us.
4 weeks after taking the medicines, we’ll ask you to take a pregnancy test (included in your kit) and we’ll check in with you. It’s important to know that pregnancy tests can stay positive for about 4 weeks after an abortion. So it’s important not to take one early.
In the rare case that the medicines did not work to end the pregnancy, we will help you with next steps.
What is telehealth?
Telehealth, sometimes also called telemedicine, is a way to receive healthcare without an in-person visit. Telehealth can take different forms. Some examples of telehealth are: 1) talking to a doctor over the phone or on a video chat and 2) sending and receiving messages, files, or images, to and from your doctor.
At Sunny, we provide telehealth through our online questionnaires, through the patient portal, and are available by text and phone.
Is virtual or telehealth abortion as good as in-person care at a clinic?
Telehealth abortion care has really grown in the past few years. Research has shown that telehealth is a safe and effective option for medication abortion and that many people like having this option.
With Sunny, you can have your medication abortion at home without needing to make an appointment or travel anywhere in person. In a clinic, you may have the option of having an ultrasound before the abortion. For most people, special testing or an ultrasound is not needed before a medication abortion.
What are my options if I’m pregnant?
Deciding what to do about an unplanned pregnancy is a very personal decision. There are three options:
-
- Parenting: You may decide to continue with the pregnancy, give birth, and raise the child.
- Adoption: You may decide to continue with the pregnancy, give birth, and place the child with another individual or family.
- Abortion: You may decide to end the pregnancy by either taking medications or having a procedure in a clinic.
You may already know what you would like to do. If you are not sure, talking with trusted people in your life can be very helpful. Talking with a doctor, nurse, or other healthcare provider can also help. All-Options is a free hotline that you can also call to talk to someone. They provide counseling and support.
I know I want an abortion. What are the different types of abortion?
There are two main types of abortion: a medication abortion (abortion with pills) and an in-clinic abortion. Medication abortion can be provided through an office visit or can be provided by telehealth and can generally be used in pregnancy up to 11 weeks. An in-clinic abortion is a procedure done by a doctor or nurse to remove the pregnancy. Both types of abortion are common and very safe.
How do I know how far along I am in my pregnancy?
Once you know you are pregnant and have taken a home pregnancy test, we can use the first day of your last period to figure out how long you have been pregnant. The first day of your last period is day 1. For people with regular periods, this is a reliable way to know how long you have been pregnant. If you are not sure when your last period was or if your periods are irregular, you may need an ultrasound to find out how far along you are in your pregnancy. In this case, we will recommend an in-person visit for care. We’ll help you find a provider for in-person care.
How do I get started?
Click the ‘Get Started’ button to register. You’ll be taken to our secure HIPAA-compliant platform. First, select your state. Our system will ask you to select an appointment time, but in most cases you won’t need a phone call or video chat. We can usually get all the information we need through our questionnaire and through secure message. If our doctor needs to talk with you, they’ll let you know.
We’ll send you our consent forms and a short health questionnaire through our secure platform. You’ll get a text whenever you have a message or update from us.
To get started, you’ll need:
- The date of the first day of your last menstrual period
- The date of your positive pregnancy test
- A photo ID. Any ID with your name and photo is fine. It does not need to be a government-issued ID
How much does it cost?
The cost of getting a medication abortion with Sunny is $269.
How do I pay?
After our doctor determines you are medically eligible, you’ll get an email and a text from our payment processor. These will include instructions for payment by credit or debit card. Once your payment has been processed, we’ll send your prescriptions. You’ll get an email from our pharmacy partner once your package has shipped.
What forms of payment do you accept?
We currently accept credit and debit card payments. We are working hard to be able to take Medi-Cal and other insurance soon.
How long does it take the medication to be delivered?
Our standard delivery with FedEx Priority is free and takes 3-5 days. For an additional $35, you can choose FedEx Express, which takes 1-2 days.
Where are the medications shipped from?
Medicines are processed and shipped by our mail-order pharmacy partner, Honeybee. Once your medicines are shipped, you’ll get a tracking number. Expedited shipping options are available for an additional fee.
Can I trust that the medications are legit?
Yes. Sunny is a professional member of the National Abortion Federation, a national organization that sets the quality standards for abortion care in North America. This means we have gone through an extensive review process. We meet rigorous quality standards and we will go through regular quality reviews. We are also certified by LegitScript, the leading verification system for online healthcare.
Our partner pharmacy, Honeybee, is a nationally-recognized pharmacy that is also certified by LegitScript and is accredited by the Better Business Bureau.
What does the follow up care include?
We’ll provide detailed aftercare instructions for you so you know what to expect and when you should contact us. We’ll check in with you within one week of taking the medicines. Two to three weeks after you take the medicines, we’ll check in again and give you instructions for taking a special pregnancy test that comes in your kit. And we’ll be here every step of the way if you have any questions or concerns.
What happens if something goes wrong or I have a bad reaction?
Medication abortion, like all types of abortion, is considered very safe. Serious complications are very rare. However, like with most medical treatments there can be some risks. We’ll provide detailed information to you about what you can expect and when you should contact us. At Sunny, we have a doctor on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You can send us a secure message, text us, or call us and we’ll get back to you. If you think you are having a medical emergency, you should call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room.
Who are the doctors?
Sunny’s doctors are board-certified, US-trained, and licensed in your state. We currently offer services in California and New York and plan to add more states soon.
Can I meet with a doctor if I want?
Most of our communication can be handled through our questionnaires and secure chat. But, if you’d like to have a phone or video call with our doctor, just let us know! We will be happy to connect.
Do you offer birth control?
Glad you asked! It’s possible to get pregnant again right away after having a medication abortion. If you want to prevent another pregnancy, it’s important to use birth control. There are many different options available for birth control. We will be happy to talk more with you about this. We can provide a prescription for you. Or for other methods that need an in-person visit (like an IUD or implant) we’ll be happy to help you find a healthcare provider.
What if I have questions?
We are available 24/7 via secure message, text, or phone. We’ll be here for you all along the way.
Do you offer refunds?

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages of the sort that are described above, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you.

- Waiver of Injunctive or Other Equitable Relief
IF YOU CLAIM THAT YOU HAVE INCURRED ANY LOSS, DAMAGES, OR INJURIES IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, THEN THE LOSSES, DAMAGES, AND INJURIES WILL NOT BE IRREPARABLE OR SUFFICIENT TO ENTITLE YOU TO AN INJUNCTION OR TO OTHER EQUITABLE RELIEF OF ANY KIND. THIS MEANS THAT, IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR CLAIM, YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT SEEK, AND THAT YOU WILL NOT BE PERMITTED TO OBTAIN, ANY COURT ORDER OR OTHER ACTION THAT MAY INTERFERE WITH OR PREVENT THE DEVELOPMENT OR EXPLOITATION OF ANY WEBSITE, APPLICATION, CONTENT, PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY OWNED, LICENSED, USED, OR CONTROLLED BY US.
- Indemnity
You agree to, and you hereby, defend, indemnify, and hold Sunny/Verde Parties harmless from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, costs, investigations, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, settlements, interest, and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) that directly or indirectly arise from or are related to any claim, suit, action, demand, or proceeding made or brought against any Sunny/Verde Party, or on account of the investigation, defense, or settlement thereof, arising out of or in connection with, whether occurring heretofore or hereafter: (i) information you submit to us; (ii) your breach or alleged breach of these Terms or any Additional Terms; (iii) your violation or alleged violation of any laws, rules, regulations, codes, statutes, ordinances, or orders of any governmental or quasi-governmental authorities in connection with your use of the Services or your activities in connection with the Services; (iv) information or material transmitted through your device, even if not submitted by you, that violates someone else’s privacy; (v) any misrepresentation made by you; and (vi) the Sunny/Verde Parties’ use of the information that you submit to us (all of the foregoing, “Claims and Losses”). You agree to cooperate fully as required by the Sunny/Verde Parties in the defense of any Claim and Losses. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Sunny/Verde Parties retain the exclusive right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any Claims and Losses, and to settle, compromise, and pay any and all Claims and Losses.
- Dispute Resolution
If you reside in the U.S. (and as applicable to U.S. residents), certain portions of this Section 13 are deemed to be a “written agreement to arbitrate” pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. You and the Sunny/Verde Parties agree that the intent of this section is to satisfy the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act.
a. First – Try To Resolve Disputes and Excluded Disputes. If any controversy, allegation, or claim arises out of or relates to the Services or these Terms, whether heretofore or hereafter arising (collectively, “Dispute”), or to any of Sunny’s actual or alleged intellectual property rights (an “Excluded Dispute,” which includes those actions set forth in Subsection (d)), then you and we agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, along with a proposed resolution of it. Our notice to you will be sent to you based on the most recent contact information that you provide us. But if no such information exists or if such information is not current, then we have no obligation under this Subsection (a). Your notice to us must be sent to: legal@mysunnyhealth.com. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, Sunny and you will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, though nothing will require either you or Sunny to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute on terms with respect to which you and Sunny, in each of our sole discretion, are not comfortable.
b. Binding Arbitration. If we cannot resolve a Dispute as set forth in Subsection (a) (or agree to arbitration in writing with respect to an Excluded Dispute) within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice, then ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING BETWEEN YOU AND SUNNY (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, STATUTE, REGULATION, ORDINANCE, TORT— INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FRAUD, ANY OTHER INTENTIONAL TORT OR NEGLIGENCE,—COMMON LAW, CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISION, RESPONDEAT SUPERIOR, AGENCY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY), WHETHER ARISING BEFORE OR AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE TERMS, MUST BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION. THIS INCLUDES ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BASED ON ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE PURCHASED THROUGH THE SERVICES OR ADVERTISING AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICES. For U.S. residents, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), not state law, shall govern the arbitrability of all disputes between the Sunny and you regarding these Terms, including the “No Class Action Matters” Section below. BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATE, EACH PARTY IS GIVING UP ITS RIGHT TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD BY A JUDGE OR JURY. Sunny and you agree, however, that the applicable state, federal or provincial law, as contemplated in Subsection (h) below, shall apply to and govern, as appropriate, any and all claims or causes of action, remedies, and damages arising between you and Sunny regarding these Terms, whether arising or stated in contract, statute, common law, or any other legal theory, without regard to any jurisdiction’s choice of law principles.
Any Dispute will be resolved solely by binding arbitration in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), except as modified herein, and the arbitration will be administered by the AAA. If a party properly submits the Dispute to the AAA for formal arbitration and the AAA is unwilling to set a hearing then either party can elect to have the arbitration administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Inc. (“JAMS”) using JAMS’ streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, or by any other arbitration administration service that you and an officer or legal representative of Sunny consent to in writing. If an in-person arbitration hearing is required and you are a U.S. resident, then it will be conducted in New Castle County, Delaware. You and we will pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require Sunny to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this section to be enforceable, then Sunny will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator who will apply and be bound by these Terms, and will determine any Dispute according to applicable law and facts based upon the record and no other basis, and will issue a reasoned award only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration and class action waiver provisions are for the court to decide. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms. You can obtain AAA and JAMS procedures, rules, and fee information as follows: AAA: 800.778.7879 and http://www.adr.org and JAMS: 800.352.5267 and http://www.jamsadr.com.
c. Limited Time To File Claims. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR WE WANT TO ASSERT A DISPUTE (BUT NOT AN EXCLUDED DISPUTE) AGAINST THE OTHER, THEN YOU OR WE MUST COMMENCE IT BY DELIVERY OF WRITTEN NOTICE AS SET FORTH IN SUBSECTION (a) WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES – OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.
d. Injunctive Relief. The foregoing provisions of this section will not apply to any legal action taken by Sunny to seek an injunction or other equitable relief in connection with, any loss, cost, or damage (or any potential loss, cost, or damage) relating to the Services and/or Sunny’s intellectual property rights (including such Sunny may claim that may be in dispute), operations, and/or products or services.
e. No Class Action Matters. YOU AND SUNNY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OR AS AN ASSOCIATION. Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be joined or consolidated with any other arbitrations or other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party. There shall be no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on any basis involving Disputes brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public, or other persons or entities similarly situated. But if, for any reason, any court with competent jurisdiction holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement in Subsection (b) to arbitrate will not apply and the Dispute must be brought exclusively in court pursuant to Subsection (f). Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, any and all issues relating to the scope, interpretation and enforceability of the class action waiver provisions contained herein (described in this “No Class Action Matters” section), are to be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction, and not by the arbitrator. The arbitrator does not have the power to vary these class action waiver provisions.
f. Jurisdictional Issues. Except where arbitration is required above or with respect to the enforcement of any arbitration decision or award, any action or proceeding relating to any Dispute or Excluded Dispute arising hereunder may only be instituted in state or Federal court in New Castle County, Delaware. Accordingly, you and Sunny consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such matters.
g. Small Claims Matters Are Excluded from Arbitration Requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either of us may bring qualifying claims of Disputes (but not Excluded Disputes) in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction.
h. Governing Law. These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with, and any Dispute and Excluded Dispute will be resolved in accordance with the laws identified in the “Jurisdiction and Governing Law” section above, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions.
- Governing Law and Geographic Limitations
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, and any Dispute and Excluded Dispute will be resolved in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

- Severability; Interpretation
If any provision of these Terms shall be deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, then to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions (which will remain in full force and effect). To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to waive, and you hereby waive, any applicable statutory and common law that may permit a contract to be construed against its drafter.

PATIENT SERVICE AGREEMENT AND CONSENT FORM
Updated September 2, 2022
Verde Medical Group, PC is honored to provide you with personalized support and care. Please read and sign the following agreement (“Agreement”), which lists services provided and the policies and procedures regarding scheduling, payment methods, confidentiality and compliance, and consent to email, text, and application messaging.
This Agreement governs the services provided by Verde Medical Group, PC and any affiliate or contracted medical care providers (“Provider”). Sunny Health PBC d/b/a Sunny provides management and administrative services to the Provider; these services include, without limitation, the provision of the telehealth platform and scheduling and billing services.
1. Services. You agree to receive medical services delivered via telehealth, including related care management and medication management services (the “Services”). Telehealth involves the use of synchronous (at the same time) and asynchronous (at different times) audio, video, or other electronic communications to interact with you, consult with your health care provider, and/or review your medical information for the purpose of diagnosis, therapy, follow-up, and/or education. During your telehealth consultation with providers from Provider, details of your medical history and personal health information may be discussed with other health professionals through the use of interactive video, audio, and telecommunications technology. The benefits of telehealth include having access to medical specialists and additional medical information and education without having to travel outside of your local health care community. A potential risk of telehealth is that because of your specific medical needs, or due to technical problems, a face-to-face consultation still may be necessary after the telehealth appointment. Additionally, in rare circumstances, security protocols could fail, causing a breach of patient privacy. The alternative to telehealth consultation is a face-to-face visit with a physician or other healthcare provider. You understand the risks, benefits, and alternatives of receiving these Services via telehealth and have had the opportunity to ask questions.The service offered by Provider is Medication Abortion. Provider only offers this service up to 10 weeks of pregnancy. Alternatives to having a medication abortion include the following:
- Procedural Abortion: You may decide to have an abortion procedure in a clinic.
- Parenting: You may decide to continue with the pregnancy, give birth, and raise the child.
- Adoption: You may decide to continue with the pregnancy, give birth, and place the child with another individual or family.
Risks of Medication Abortion:
All types of abortion are considered very safe. However, like with most medical treatments there can be some risks. Complications are rare but can happen. Serious complications happen in less than 0.4 percent of patients.
I understand these risks may include:
- Continuing pregnancy: In some cases, the pregnancy does not end after taking the medications. Because misoprostol can cause birth defects, if this happens you may need to take more medicine or have a procedure (called a “D&C” or “aspiration abortion”) to complete the abortion.
- Incomplete abortion: Some of the pregnancy tissue or the pregnancy may be left inside your uterus. This may lead to heavy bleeding, infection, or both. If this happens, you may need a procedure, other tests, or treatments.
- Hemorrhage: You may have too much bleeding or bleed for too long. If this happens, we may recommend medicine, a procedure, or, rarely, a blood transfusion or surgery to remove the uterus (hysterectomy).
- Infection: The infection rate from medication abortion is less than 1 percent. Antibiotics are used to treat the infection, and, rarely, a suction procedure.
- Allergic reaction: While rare, some people are allergic to the medicines used.
- Death: Death from medication abortion is very rare. The risk of death from childbirth is about ten times greater.
Side Effects of Medication Abortion: Side effects usually do not last long. They usually need little or no treatment. I understand the following:
- Cramping: This is normal and is supposed to happen. Cramping is usually worst when the pregnancy is passing. Milder cramps may last for a few days. If you are having pain in your belly that is unrelieved by pain medication more than 24 hours after taking misoprostol, please contact us.
- Bleeding: This is also normal and is part of the abortion process. Bleeding is usually heaviest when the pregnancy is passing. You should call us if you are soaking 2 pads an hour for more than 2 hours in a row. You may bleed or spot for 4 to 6 weeks after the abortion.
- Fever/chills: The misoprostol can make you feel as if you have a fever. We recommend you do not take your temperature for the first 24 hours. Having a temperature of 99-100°F is okay. If you have a fever greater than 100.4°F more than 24 hours after taking the misoprostol, please contact us.
- Other side effects: It is common to have diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, back pain, and tiredness. These should go away 24 hours after taking misoprostol. If you are still having these symptoms more than 24 hours after taking misoprostol, please contact us.
NOTE FOR EMERGENCIES
I understand that I should not use Provider in case of an emergency. Further, I understand that, in an emergency, I should dial 911 or go to an emergency department.
2. Scheduling Services. All services can be scheduled by clicking “Get Care” on www.mysunnyhealth.com.
3. Payment Methods. You understand and agree that payment for services shall be made prior to or at the time of service, except for the portion of the payment that may be covered by your insurance plan. Provider accepts payment in the form of credit or debit card. If we accept your insurance and you will be using insurance to cover some or all of the cost of your appointment, you should contact Provider ahead of your appointment to ensure that your insurance is accepted. You should be prepared to pay any co-payments at the time of the appointment. If Provider is out-of-network for your insurance, Provider will submit an out-of-network claim on your behalf, and bill you only for the co-payment, co-insurance or amount not covered.
4. Confidentiality and Compliance. Provider will take appropriate precautions to keep your health information confidential and to not disclose it without your consent. You are also protected under the provisions of the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) and any other applicable federal and state laws related to protection of patient information. You have received a copy of our Notice of Privacy Practices (“NPP”). The most up-to-date NPP is posted on our website.
5. Consent to Email, Text, and Application Messaging. By providing your e-mail and/or phone number to the Provider, you agree to receive text messages or e-mails from Sunny and its agents, on your cell phone or other devices. You understand that text messages and e-mails sent by Sunny may include appointment reminders or changes in previously scheduled appointments, or may provide advice or education. Because e-mails sent over the Internet or texts sent over the control channel without encryption are not secure, you understand the risks associated with text messaging and e-mail, including, without limitation, that text messages or e-mails could be intercepted by unknown third parties, e-mail content can be changed without the knowledge of the sender or receiver, backup copies of e-mail may still exist even after the sender and receiver have deleted the messages, and e-mail can contain harmful viruses and other programs.
You understand that Sunny has recommended that you delete all messages and e-mails as soon as possible after reviewing them to limit any unauthorized exposure.
If you communicate with Sunny via e-mail or text message, you are consenting for Sunny to respond to your e-mail or any messages sent via text utilizing the same method that you used.

Your Rights Regarding Your Health Information
You have the following rights regarding your health information:

We may refuse to allow you to inspect or obtain copies of this information in certain limited cases. If permitted by federal and state law, we may charge you a fee for copies of your record.
- Right to Request Amendments. You have the right to request changes to any health information we maintain about you if you state a reason why this information is incorrect or incomplete. But, Verde does not have to agree to make the changes you request. If we do not agree with the requested changes, we will notify you in writing and inform you how to have your objection included in our records. If changes are made to your record, it does not mean that Verde will destroy or rewrite your previous records, but Verde will add an addendum to your current records to reflect your changes.
- Right to an Accounting of Disclosures. You have the right to receive a list of the disclosures of your health information by Verde. The list will not include disclosures made for certain purposes, including disclosures for treatment, payment, or health care operations, or disclosures you authorized in writing.

- Right to Request Restrictions. You have the right to request restrictions on the ways in which we use and disclose your health information for treatment, payment, and health care operations, or disclose this information to disaster relief organizations or individuals who are involved in your care.

- Right to Request Confidential Communications. You have the right to ask us to send health information to you in a different way or at a different location if the request is reasonable and you believe that you may be endangered by our ordinary form of communication.

You and the Sunny/Verde Parties agree that the intent of this section is to satisfy the “writing” requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act.
a. First – Try To Resolve Disputes and Excluded Disputes. If any controversy, allegation, or claim arises out of or relates to the Services or these Terms, whether heretofore or hereafter arising (collectively, “Dispute”), or to any of Sunny’s actual or alleged intellectual property rights (an “Excluded Dispute,” which includes those actions set forth in Subsection (d)), then you and we agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, along with a proposed resolution of it. Our notice to you will be sent to you based on the most recent contact information that you provide us. But if no such information exists or if such information is not current, then we have no obligation under this Subsection (a). Your notice to us must be sent to: legal@mysunnyhealth.com. For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, Sunny and you will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, though nothing will require either you or Sunny to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute on terms with respect to which you and Sunny, in each of our sole discretion, are not comfortable.
b. Binding Arbitration. If we cannot resolve a Dispute as set forth in Subsection (a) (or agree to arbitration in writing with respect to an Excluded Dispute) within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice, then ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING BETWEEN YOU AND SUNNY (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, STATUTE, REGULATION, ORDINANCE, TORT— INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FRAUD, ANY OTHER INTENTIONAL TORT OR NEGLIGENCE,—COMMON LAW, CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISION, RESPONDEAT SUPERIOR, AGENCY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY), WHETHER ARISING BEFORE OR AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE TERMS, MUST BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION. THIS INCLUDES ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BASED ON ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE PURCHASED THROUGH THE SERVICES OR ADVERTISING AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICES. For U.S. residents, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), not state law, shall govern the arbitrability of all disputes between the Sunny and you regarding these Terms, including the “No Class Action Matters” Section below. BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATE, EACH PARTY IS GIVING UP ITS RIGHT TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD BY A JUDGE OR JURY. Sunny and you agree, however, that the applicable state, federal or provincial law, as contemplated in Subsection (h) below, shall apply to and govern, as appropriate, any and all claims or causes of action, remedies, and damages arising between you and Sunny regarding these Terms, whether arising or stated in contract, statute, common law, or any other legal theory, without regard to any jurisdiction’s choice of law principles.
Any Dispute will be resolved solely by binding arbitration in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), except as modified herein, and the arbitration will be administered by the AAA. If a party properly submits the Dispute to the AAA for formal arbitration and the AAA is unwilling to set a hearing then either party can elect to have the arbitration administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Inc. (“JAMS”) using JAMS’ streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, or by any other arbitration administration service that you and an officer or legal representative of Sunny consent to in writing. If an in-person arbitration hearing is required and you are a U.S. resident, then it will be conducted in New Castle County, Delaware. You and we will pay the administrative and arbitrator’s fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require Sunny to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this section to be enforceable, then Sunny will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator who will apply and be bound by these Terms, and will determine any Dispute according to applicable law and facts based upon the record and no other basis, and will issue a reasoned award only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration and class action waiver provisions are for the court to decide. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms. You can obtain AAA and JAMS procedures, rules, and fee information as follows: AAA: 800.778.7879 and http://www.adr.org and JAMS: 800.352.5267 and http://www.jamsadr.com.
c. Limited Time To File Claims. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR WE WANT TO ASSERT A DISPUTE (BUT NOT AN EXCLUDED DISPUTE) AGAINST THE OTHER, THEN YOU OR WE MUST COMMENCE IT BY DELIVERY OF WRITTEN NOTICE AS SET FORTH IN SUBSECTION (a) WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES – OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED.
d. Injunctive Relief. The foregoing provisions of this section will not apply to any legal action taken by Sunny to seek an injunction or other equitable relief in connection with, any loss, cost, or damage (or any potential loss, cost, or damage) relating to the Services and/or Sunny’s intellectual property rights (including such Sunny may claim that may be in dispute), operations, and/or products or services.
e. No Class Action Matters. YOU AND SUNNY AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OR AS AN ASSOCIATION. Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be joined or consolidated with any other arbitrations or other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party. There shall be no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on any basis involving Disputes brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public, or other persons or entities similarly situated. But if, for any reason, any court with competent jurisdiction holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement in Subsection (b) to arbitrate will not apply and the Dispute must be brought exclusively in court pursuant to Subsection (f). Notwithstanding any other provision of this section, any and all issues relating to the scope, interpretation and enforceability of the class action waiver provisions contained herein (described in this “No Class Action Matters” section), are to be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction, and not by the arbitrator. The arbitrator does not have the power to vary these class action waiver provisions.
f. Jurisdictional Issues. Except where arbitration is required above or with respect to the enforcement of any arbitration decision or award, any action or proceeding relating to any Dispute or Excluded Dispute arising hereunder may only be instituted in state or Federal court in New Castle County, Delaware. Accordingly, you and Sunny consent to the exclusive personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts for such matters.
g. Small Claims Matters Are Excluded from Arbitration Requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either of us may bring qualifying claims of Disputes (but not Excluded Disputes) in a small claims court of competent jurisdiction.
h. Governing Law. These Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with, and any Dispute and Excluded Dispute will be resolved in accordance with the laws identified in the “Jurisdiction and Governing Law” section above, without regard to its conflicts of law provisions.
- Governing Law and Geographic Limitations
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with, and any Dispute and Excluded Dispute will be resolved in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of laws principles.

- Severability; Interpretation
If any provision of these Terms shall be deemed unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, then to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions (which will remain in full force and effect). To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to waive, and you hereby waive, any applicable statutory and common law that may permit a contract to be construed against its drafter.

Updated September 2, 2022
Verde Medical Group, PC is honored to provide you with personalized support and care. Please read and sign the following agreement (“Agreement”), which lists services provided and the policies and procedures regarding scheduling, payment methods, confidentiality and compliance, and consent to email, text, and application messaging.
This Agreement governs the services provided by Verde Medical Group, PC and any affiliate or contracted medical care providers (“Provider”). Sunny Health PBC d/b/a Sunny provides management and administrative services to the Provider; these services include, without limitation, the provision of the telehealth platform and scheduling and billing services.
1. Services. You agree to receive medical services delivered via telehealth, including related care management and medication management services (the “Services”). Telehealth involves the use of synchronous (at the same time) and asynchronous (at different times) audio, video, or other electronic communications to interact with you, consult with your health care provider, and/or review your medical information for the purpose of diagnosis, therapy, follow-up, and/or education. During your telehealth consultation with providers from Provider, details of your medical history and personal health information may be discussed with other health professionals through the use of interactive video, audio, and telecommunications technology. The benefits of telehealth include having access to medical specialists and additional medical information and education without having to travel outside of your local health care community. A potential risk of telehealth is that because of your specific medical needs, or due to technical problems, a face-to-face consultation still may be necessary after the telehealth appointment. Additionally, in rare circumstances, security protocols could fail, causing a breach of patient privacy. The alternative to telehealth consultation is a face-to-face visit with a physician or other healthcare provider. You understand the risks, benefits, and alternatives of receiving these Services via telehealth and have had the opportunity to ask questions.The service offered by Provider is Medication Abortion. Provider only offers this service up to 10 weeks of pregnancy. Alternatives to having a medication abortion include the following:
- Procedural Abortion: You may decide to have an abortion procedure in a clinic.
- Parenting: You may decide to continue with the pregnancy, give birth, and raise the child.
- Adoption: You may decide to continue with the pregnancy, give birth, and place the child with another individual or family.
Risks of Medication Abortion:
All types of abortion are considered very safe. However, like with most medical treatments there can be some risks. Complications are rare but can happen. Serious complications happen in less than 0.4 percent of patients.
I understand these risks may include:
- Continuing pregnancy: In some cases, the pregnancy does not end after taking the medications. Because misoprostol can cause birth defects, if this happens you may need to take more medicine or have a procedure (called a “D&C” or “aspiration abortion”) to complete the abortion.
- Incomplete abortion: Some of the pregnancy tissue or the pregnancy may be left inside your uterus. This may lead to heavy bleeding, infection, or both. If this happens, you may need a procedure, other tests, or treatments.
- Hemorrhage: You may have too much bleeding or bleed for too long. If this happens, we may recommend medicine, a procedure, or, rarely, a blood transfusion or surgery to remove the uterus (hysterectomy).
- Infection: The infection rate from medication abortion is less than 1 percent. Antibiotics are used to treat the infection, and, rarely, a suction procedure.
- Allergic reaction: While rare, some people are allergic to the medicines used.
- Death: Death from medication abortion is very rare. The risk of death from childbirth is about ten times greater.
Side Effects of Medication Abortion: Side effects usually do not last long. They usually need little or no treatment. I understand the following:
- Cramping: This is normal and is supposed to happen. Cramping is usually worst when the pregnancy is passing. Milder cramps may last for a few days. If you are having pain in your belly that is unrelieved by pain medication more than 24 hours after taking misoprostol, please contact us.
- Bleeding: This is also normal and is part of the abortion process. Bleeding is usually heaviest when the pregnancy is passing. You should call us if you are soaking 2 pads an hour for more than 2 hours in a row. You may bleed or spot for 4 to 6 weeks after the abortion.
- Fever/chills: The misoprostol can make you feel as if you have a fever. We recommend you do not take your temperature for the first 24 hours. Having a temperature of 99-100°F is okay. If you have a fever greater than 100.4°F more than 24 hours after taking the misoprostol, please contact us.
- Other side effects: It is common to have diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, headache, dizziness, back pain, and tiredness. These should go away 24 hours after taking misoprostol. If you are still having these symptoms more than 24 hours after taking misoprostol, please contact us.
NOTE FOR EMERGENCIES
I understand that I should not use Provider in case of an emergency. Further, I understand that, in an emergency, I should dial 911 or go to an emergency department.
2. Scheduling Services. All services can be scheduled by clicking “Get Care” on www.mysunnyhealth.com.
3. Payment Methods. You understand and agree that payment for services shall be made prior to or at the time of service, except for the portion of the payment that may be covered by your insurance plan. Provider accepts payment in the form of credit or debit card. If we accept your insurance and you will be using insurance to cover some or all of the cost of your appointment, you should contact Provider ahead of your appointment to ensure that your insurance is accepted. You should be prepared to pay any co-payments at the time of the appointment. If Provider is out-of-network for your insurance, Provider will submit an out-of-network claim on your behalf, and bill you only for the co-payment, co-insurance or amount not covered.
4. Confidentiality and Compliance. Provider will take appropriate precautions to keep your health information confidential and to not disclose it without your consent. You are also protected under the provisions of the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (“HIPAA”) and any other applicable federal and state laws related to protection of patient information. You have received a copy of our Notice of Privacy Practices (“NPP”). The most up-to-date NPP is posted on our website.
5. Consent to Email, Text, and Application Messaging. By providing your e-mail and/or phone number to the Provider, you agree to receive text messages or e-mails from Sunny and its agents, on your cell phone or other devices. You understand that text messages and e-mails sent by Sunny may include appointment reminders or changes in previously scheduled appointments, or may provide advice or education. Because e-mails sent over the Internet or texts sent over the control channel without encryption are not secure, you understand the risks associated with text messaging and e-mail, including, without limitation, that text messages or e-mails could be intercepted by unknown third parties, e-mail content can be changed without the knowledge of the sender or receiver, backup copies of e-mail may still exist even after the sender and receiver have deleted the messages, and e-mail can contain harmful viruses and other programs.
You understand that Sunny has recommended that you delete all messages and e-mails as soon as possible after reviewing them to limit any unauthorized exposure.
If you communicate with Sunny via e-mail or text message, you are consenting for Sunny to respond to your e-mail or any messages sent via text utilizing the same method that you used.

Your Rights Regarding Your Health Information
You have the following rights regarding your health information:
- Right to Inspect and Copy. You have the right to inspect or request a copy of health information about you that we maintain. Your request should describe the information you want to review and the format in which you wish to review it. We may refuse to allow you to inspect or obtain copies of this information in certain limited cases. If permitted by federal and state law, we may charge you a fee for copies of your record.
- Right to Request Amendments. You have the right to request changes to any health information we maintain about you if you state a reason why this information is incorrect or incomplete. But, Verde does not have to agree to make the changes you request. If we do not agree with the requested changes, we will notify you in writing and inform you how to have your objection included in our records. If changes are made to your record, it does not mean that Verde will destroy or rewrite your previous records, but Verde will add an addendum to your current records to reflect your changes.
- Right to an Accounting of Disclosures. You have the right to receive a list of the disclosures of your health information by Verde. The list will not include disclosures made for certain purposes, including disclosures for treatment, payment, or health care operations, or disclosures you authorized in writing. Your request should specify the time period covered by your request, which cannot exceed six years. The first time you request a list of disclosures in any 12-month period, it will be provided at no cost. If you request additional lists within the 12-month period, we may charge you a nominal fee.
- Right to Request Restrictions. You have the right to request restrictions on the ways in which we use and disclose your health information for treatment, payment, and health care operations, or disclose this information to disaster relief organizations or individuals who are involved in your care. But Verde does not have to agree to the restrictions you request; we would be bound by any restrictions to which we both agree.
- Right to Request Confidential Communications. You have the right to ask us to send health information to you in a different way or at a different location if the request is reasonable and you believe that you may be endangered by our ordinary form of communication. For example, if you are afraid that someone living with you may open your mail resulting in harm, you may ask us to mail to an alternate address. Your request for an alternate form of communication should also specify where and/or how we should contact you.
