Philosophy
The
information provided on this web site is offered for general informational
purposes only. The content on this site is not intended, nor implied
to be a substitute for professional legal or medical advice. However,
NMUA is committed to the belief that thoughtful, well-informed
patients who are working collaboratively with competent medical
providers are much more likely to have optimal clinical outcomes.
Disclaimer
of Medical Liability
Competent
medical care regarding the diagnosis and treatment of any medical
condition requires a careful and thoughtful assessment of each individual's
circumstances before a course of action is chosen (and may include
physical and laboratory examinations). Information on this site
is provided solely as a supplemental resource to the direct clinical
care process involving a patient and physician (or other clinical
care provider). Because NMUA is unable to consider the unique circumstances
associated with the direct care of specific individuals viewing
content on this site, NMUA cannot be responsible or liable for any
action that may be performed based on information contained in this
site.
Intellectual
Property
All
text, graphics, and presentation of information on this site (and
other supported sites) are the original work of NMUA and/or its
contracted agents unless explicit citation is made with respect
to specific intellectual property of any other party. For the present
purposes, a "party" is any individual or company who has
created or currently owns the "intellectual property rights"
for the expression of an idea or concept in the form of a copyright,
trademark, patent, or similar property, which is protected by the
legislation or regulation of the United States government or other
generally recognized governing body. Where pertinent, NMUA has obtained
written permission to use any such protected material that is not
otherwise recognized to be in the public domain. As a practical
matter, particularly with respect to information available via resources
and "links" on the Internet, the recognition that some
information is, in fact, protected "intellectual property"
may be quite difficult to establish. If you believe that NMUA has
not properly identified or acknowledged information on this site
as "intellectual property," please let us know via our
"Contact Us" page.
