Website terms

The public website provides general information. It does not replace individual medical advice, emergency care, a formal referral or a treating relationship. Sending an enquiry or referral does not confirm acceptance or an appointment.

Clinical and medicolegal pathways

Clinical treatment and independent medicolegal assessment are separate engagements. Clinical referrals and relevant documents may be sent to the published automated referral inbox or fax. Clinical and administrative requests must be made by telephone.

Private fees pay for specialist time, expertise, assessment, analysis and professional judgement. Prescribing and other clinical decisions depend on clinical need. Payment does not purchase a requested medicine, favourable report, preferred wording, certificate, licence recommendation or any other predetermined clinical or legal outcome. Formal independent expert work remains separate from treatment. Practice staff cannot negotiate or influence an opinion. Abusive, threatening or coercive communication towards Dr Hadinata or practice staff will not be accepted.

The dedicated independent expert mailbox is strictly for a brief, non-confidential suitability enquiry from an instructing organisation about a proposed formal engagement of Dr Hadinata as an independent medical expert in Addiction Medicine. Dr Hadinata accepts an instruction only where he has no current or previous treating relationship with the person to be assessed and no other conflict of interest. The mailbox is not for accepted or current matters, general legal or insurance enquiries, treating reports, certificates, forms, access to patient records, informal advice, patients, members of the public or clinical referrals.

Do not send instructions, party names, briefs, health records, reports or other confidential matter information by email. To protect confidentiality, messages outside the preliminary-enquiry scope are deleted unread. No independent expert engagement begins until suitability, conflicts, scope, terms and fees are agreed. MEDirect handles all accepted or current matters, including bookings, conflict information, instructions, case administration, document submission, report delivery and invoicing, through its specialised medicolegal IT services and risk-management processes.

Books and workbook material

Dr Hadinata's books are educational resources. They do not establish a treating relationship or provide monitoring or emergency response. Book purchases are approval-only: request permission through the bookshop before paying. Requests will be considered within 5 business days. Licence holders can sign in to their personal library for their approved books. Existing authorised readers can continue using their protected PDF links.

Workbook answers are not submitted or stored by the website. A person who prints or saves a copy is responsible for deciding where it is stored and who can access it.
