Accessibility Statement
eDermatology, Inc. · Last reviewed:
November 2026
eDermatology™ is committed to making
edermatology.com and the eDermatology™ platform
at app.edermatology.com usable by everyone, including people
who rely on assistive technology, and to meeting our obligations under
the Americans with Disabilities Act and Section 1557 of the Affordable
Care Act.
Our standard
We aim to conform to the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines
(WCAG) 2.2, Level AA. These guidelines explain how to make web
content more accessible to people with visual, hearing, motor and
cognitive disabilities, and following them also makes our services
easier for everyone to use.
What we do
- Build the platform and the website with semantic HTML, keyboard
operability, visible focus, sufficient color contrast, text that can be
resized to 200 percent, and labels and names that screen readers can
announce.
- Test new releases with keyboard-only navigation and screen readers
(VoiceOver on macOS and iOS; NVDA on Windows), on phones as well as
desktops.
- Offer the patient portal in English and Spanish,
with a language choice in the patient’s profile.
- Provide a telephone alternative for anything you cannot do online:
(877) 656-DERM (3376). Our staff can register you, help
you submit photographs and relay messages from your care team. We accept
calls through telecommunications relay services (dial 711).
- Provide, on request, documents in large print or accessible
electronic formats, and qualified interpreters, including sign-language
interpreters for video visits, at no charge to you.
Current status and known
limitations
The platform and the website are partially
conformant with WCAG 2.2 Level AA: most content conforms, and
the following are known limitations that we are working on, in
order:
- Video visits do not yet offer live captions.
Captions with real-time translation are planned; until they are
available, ask us for a sign-language or spoken-language interpreter
when you schedule a video visit, or choose an asynchronous (photo and
message) consultation.
- Spanish text in care summaries is produced by machine
translation and reviewed for clinical sense but not
professionally translated; ask for an interpreter if anything is
unclear.
- Some clinical images (your own photographs and
dermoscopic images) have no text alternative beyond their label, because
their content is the clinical finding itself.
- Third-party content — the payment form, pharmacy
directory and mapping content provided by our vendors — may not meet the
same standard; we choose vendors with accessibility commitments and
raise problems with them.
Compatibility
The Services are designed for current versions of Safari, Chrome,
Edge and Firefox on macOS, Windows, iOS and Android, and with the screen
readers named above. Passkey sign-in works with the accessibility
features of each platform (for example Face ID, Touch ID or a security
key).
Feedback and requests
If you have difficulty using any part of our services, find something
that is not accessible, or need information in another format, please
tell us; we will respond within two business days and work with you to
provide what you need:
- support@edermatology.com (subject line:
Accessibility)
- (877) 656-DERM (3376) (relay calls welcome)
You may also file a grievance under our Section 1557
non-discrimination procedure through the same contacts, or a complaint
with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Office for Civil
Rights (www.hhs.gov/ocr/complaints).
This statement is reviewed with every major release of the platform
and at least once a year. Last review: November 2026.
