Free medical information disclaimer: 

This is a medical disclaimer document, designed for use on a website publishing medical information, for the purpose of disclaiming liability - or rather attempting to disclaim liability - in relation to that information.

​

Such medical information may relate to disease, injury, drugs and other treatments, medical devices and/or health products.

The document asserts that the medical information does not amount to advice, and if advice is needed an appropriate professional help should be sought. The document also asserts that no warranties or representations are given in respect of the medical information, and that the website operator should not be held liable if a user suffers any injury or loss after relying upon the medical information.

​

The disclaimer may be used independently or as part of a more general legal/contractual document.

NB the courts have many tools they can use to render disclaimers ineffective, and you should not rely upon any template disclaimer of liability without first taking professional advice (and usually not even then).

Section 1: Credit

Section: Free documents licensing warning

Optional element. Although you need to retain the credit, you should remove the inline copyright warning from this document before use.

Section 5: Interactive features

Does the website include any interactive features through which information or assistance may be provided to users?

Section 6: Limits upon exclusions of liability

Section 6.1

Do not delete this provision (except upon legal advice). Without this provision, the specific limitations and exclusions of liability in the document are more likely to be unenforceable.
