You shall have three (3) business days after receipt of such access credentials to provide written acceptance of the Test Environment’s completeness and accuracy, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. If You fail to provide written acceptance after three (3) business days, You shall be deemed to have accepted the Test Environment’s accuracy and completeness.
    4. Training. After Your acceptance of the Test Environment, You shall schedule training on the features and functions of our Software and Services. Such training shall consist of one 1-hour remote session(s) per week with a project manager, at times, dates, and frequency to be determined by Us. You will receive up to ten (10) training sessions in connection with Your RCM implementation that will expire on the earlier of (i) the Go Live Date, or (ii) sixty (60) calendar days after the effective date of Your Order Form.

The configuration of our Software and Services once each payer has approved a minimum number of test claims, as determined within our reasonable discretion, shall be the “Production Environment” for the performance of the Services under this Statement of Work. The date You accept the Production Environment shall be the “Go Live Date.”
    6. Acceptance of Production Environment. We shall notify You once the Production Environment is available. You shall have three (3) business days to inspect the Production Environment to ensure all payers and procedure and diagnosis codes are visible and usable by Your appropriate staff. If You fail to provide written acceptance after three (3) business days, You will be deemed to have accepted the Production Environment’s accuracy and completeness.
    7. You acknowledge and agree that if the information set forth in the Billing Profile materially differs from Your actual billing practices and information (e.g. the number of payers and which payers You submit claims to), then We shall have the right to immediately adjust our Implementation Fee.
  2. The Services.
    1. Billing.
      1. Claims Submission. We will submit claims on Your behalf to Medicaid, Medicare, and all commercial payers electronically on a regular basis, as reasonably determined by us based on legal requirements, applicable regulations, payer requirements, and our own processes. All clean bills will be submitted when you have selected the appropriate system status, (e.g. “Ready to be processed,” “Awaiting Submission,” “Billable,”). We will then submit them on a timely basis, consistent with then-current industry standard practice.
      2. Paper Claims Submission. We do not submit paper claims to payers unless (a) required as part of an appeal process for a denial or an audit and/or (b) the payer does not accept electronic submissions. You will pay for postage if paper billing must be submitted. Without limiting anything else set forth in this Agreement, in the event that We submit any paper claims on Your behalf, such claims are submitted without any warranty or representation as to whether You will be reimbursed or the timeliness of the claims’ submission. We expressly disclaim any potential or actual damages due to delay with respect to paper claims.
      3. Manual Claims. In the event that We are required to manually input a claim into a payer’s portal or other electronic repository, We will charge You our then current list rate for such RCM Services.
    2. Payer Follow up and Denial Management.
      1. Review of Clearinghouse Edits. We will review all clearinghouse edits and payer rejections reported via a u277 file in a timely manner. We will review the rejection and take any appropriate steps to correct the claim, except for modifying clinical Claim Data, and resubmit it for processing. Items that require Your assistance will be forwarded to You for review and feedback. You agree to provide feedback within five (5) business days.
      2. Claim Denial and Review. We will perform an initial review on all denied claims within a timely manner of the payer posting such denial to determine the appropriate steps to appeal the denial when possible. The initial review will consist of the identification of the specific reason for the denial and a determination of whether the claim is re-billable and/or additional information is required from You. For avoidance of doubt, such review shall not consist of any modification of the clinical Claim Data.
      3. Requests for Additional Information (“RFI”) and Claim Data Corrections. If additional information is required to support the appeal of a denial, You agree to provide this information within five (5) business days of receiving written notification from Us to allow for timely processing and appeal. If You fail to provide the data that We request, We shall not be responsible for timely filing issues related to the appeal. Requests for information may include, but not be limited to, information regarding errors in authorization, demographic information (DOB/Gender), diagnosis, supervision, procedure codes and/or modifiers, and medical necessity. If we request You to correct any Claim Data necessary to appeal or rebill a denied claim, then You shall correct such Claim Data within five (5) business days, and if You fail to do so, We shall have no responsibility or liability relating to any timely filing issues with respect to such claim.
      4. Appeal Submission & Rebilling. Once We have received all requested Claim Data and additional information from You to appeal or manage a denial, We will submit the appeal on Your behalf in a timely manner, or rebill the claim, depending on the payers’ process and nature of the denial.
    3. Payment Posting & Reporting.
      1. ERA Posting. We will upload and process Electronic Remittance Advice (ERA) files received through clearinghouse connections. We will post all cash receipts from an 835 or paper remit to AR and reconcile services. You are responsible for providing Us with copies of paper remits. We will post all cash receipts on a timely basis. We shall not be responsible for posting any cash receipts or ERA files whose underlying dates of service are prior to the effective date of this Statement of Work.
      2. Reconciliation. In the event You provide us with access to Your deposit accounts at Your bank, We will reconcile all payments reported by 835 files as part of the daily payment posting process. Discrepancies will be reported to Us for review. We will contact the payer in question for payment status after a 5-day waiting period. 835 files will not be finalized until discrepancies are resolved. You will provide view access to the targeted bank account(s) and grant approval for a daily extract of deposit information, if available, from Your bank or send a copy of Your deposit log weekly at a minimum. We will not reconcile Your bank account to verify invoicing. Our reconciliation only includes daily deposit verification and balancing for posting. Deposit log reconciliation does not apply to aged AR clean-up.
      3. Reporting. We will provide You with standard reports generated from our Software and Services. Reports include, but are not limited to, basic insurance submission and payment reports, accounts receivables, and patient payment and ledger reports. Additional reports may be available based on Your claims volume or for an additional charge.
  3. Customer Obligations.
    1. Portal Access. Upon executing an Order Form for RCM Services, but no later than forty-eight (48) hours thereafter, You shall provide us with access to the websites, accounts, portals, etc., through which You manage Your relationships with Your payers. Time is of the essence with respect to this provision. Many payers limit the ability to check claim status via telephone calls. Therefore, failure to provide portal access in a timely manner may cause timely filing issues for which We are not responsible.
    2. Claim Data. We will submit claims using the data submitted by You through our Software and Services (“Claim Data”). Claim Data includes, but is not limited to, diagnostic codes, billing codes, and payer information. Customer is responsible for ensuring the medical necessity, appropriateness of any services provided to its patients and/or clients, and the accuracy and completeness of the codes submitted through our Software and Services.
    3. Claim Data Submission. Customer will submit all necessary Claim Data to Us within five (5) business days of providing any reimbursable service to a client or patient. A failure to comply with this section may lead to payment delays and potential timely filing issues.
    4. Authorizations. You shall obtain and provide Us with all authorizations necessary to obtain reimbursement from any applicable payer for any covered services provided to Your patients or clients.
    5. Accuracy. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT WE ARE RELYING ENTIRELY ON THE CLAIMS AND BILLING INFORMATION SUPPLIED BY YOU IN SUBMITTING CLAIMS ON YOUR BEHALF. YOU REPRESENT, WARRANT, AND COVENANT THAT ANY AND ALL SUCH CLAIMS AND BILLING INFORMATION IS ENTIRELY ACCURATE AND TRUTHFUL TO THE BEST OF YOUR KNOWLEDGE, AND YOU SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD US HARMLESS FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, PENALTIES, FINES OR DAMAGES RELATING TO THE INACCURACY OF SUCH CLAIMS OR BILLING INFORMATION.
    6. Patient Eligibility. You will be responsible for reviewing all patient eligibility information and adding/maintaining Your insurance records.
    7. Reasonable Assistance. You shall timely perform such tasks and provide such assistance to Us as is reasonably necessary for Us to perform the RCM Services, including, but not limited to, providing relevant or requested insurance payer or patient correspondence, along with access to payer portals. Failure to comply with this provision may result in suspension or termination of RCM Services.
    8. Payer Configuration Changes. You shall immediately inform us, through the submission of a support ticket, of any changes, additions, or other modifications to Your payers’ requirements, such as the addition or removal of certain services or modifiers (“Payer Configuration Changes”). You shall provide detailed documentation regarding Payer Configuration Changes. Company shall have up to thirty (30) business days upon receipt of the ticket to review, apply, and test the Payer Configuration Changes.
    9. New Payers. You shall notify us promptly of any new payers You begin accepting. We shall configure the Software and Services to perform EDI and ERA transactions with such new payers within thirty (30) business days of receiving such notification.
  4. Excluded Services.

    Any services or obligations not specifically set forth in this Statement of Work are excluded. For example, but without limitation, we shall not perform the following services:

Any custom reports will only be provided pursuant to a separate Statement of Work and will be subject to our then current fees for providing similar services.
    3. Prior AR. Unless mutually agreed upon in writing between You and Us and set forth on Your Order Form, Your old Accounts Receivable (“AR”) will not be migrated to our Software and Services and We will not work AR prior to the Effective Date. If AR Clean- Up (“AR Clean-Up Services”) is included on Your Order Form, We will work down Your outstanding AR for government and third-party payers where the claim has been processed electronically (excluding patient collections services, which are outside the scope of AR Clean-Up Services) as described below:
      1. We will take appropriate follow-up action to resolve claims and provide You with recommended next steps. You will have three (3) business days to respond with acceptance of the recommendation; after that specified time, We will adjust or write off the balance.
      2. We will follow up on each claim one (1), or in our sole discretion, up to two (2) times, depending on the state of the claim. If the follow up does not resolve the claim, You give Us the sole discretion to write off or continue pursuing the claim. If additional work is required on a claim beyond the above-mentioned 1 to 2 follow-ups, We reserve the right to charge additional fees to You or abandon the claim.
      3. We will process unallocated payments and take-back credits.
      4. All claims less than $25.00 and over a year old will be returned to You. All claims for amounts exceeding $25.00 will be researched and applied, or a ticket will be created with instructions for You to resolve.
      5. You acknowledge and permit Us to appropriately adjust and/or write off all claims deemed uncollectible. You agree that the AR Clean-Up Services are not a guarantee of reimbursement. You will work with Us on all outstanding aged AR, and anything deemed uncollectible will be written off as such. Balances less than $25.00 will also be written off.
      6. You agree to provide website access and payer contracts before the RCM Services go-live date to address claims appropriately. If claims are returned for timely filing, duplicate payment or already paid, We will not research them further and such claims will be written off.
    4. Credentialing Services. For the purposes of this Statement of Work, credentialing services means the process by which insurance companies verify whether a Healthcare Provider meets its requirements to serve as an in-network provider, including, education, training, professional experience, and other internal requirements of the insurance company. In the event a claim is denied due to issues related to credentialing, it is Your obligation to correct such issues and properly credential with the appropriate payer. Failure to credential claims appropriately may result in timely filing issues that are not our responsibility.
    5. Authorizations. You must obtain all relevant authorizations. It is Your responsibility to enter authorizations in the appropriate field, if applicable, within the Software and Services.

    3. RCM Services Requirements. If You fail to maintain and/or pay for licenses to use our Software and Services, You acknowledge that We may, at our option, suspend Your access to our Software and Services.

Therefore, You acknowledge and agree that in the event of such a suspension, we shall have no liability whatsoever for any issues or claims related to timely filing or other RCM issues that arise from such suspension.
  6. Fees.

You shall be responsible for paying the monthly minimum fee after the expiration of the designated implementation period or from the Go Live Date, whichever date occurs first (such date the “RCM Invoicing Date”). The RCM Invoicing Date shall in no event be greater than ninety (90) days from the effective date of Your Order Form.
        1. If the average monthly payments processed through Us over any three (3) month period vary more than ten percent (10%) from the monthly estimate provided by You (the “Monthly Estimate”), We shall raise the percentage collections rate for You to a level consistent with our then-current rates for a similar volume of processed payments.

      3. Future Regulatory Changes Impacting RCM Services. In the event that any provision of this Statement of Work, including without limitation those related to Fees, becomes illegal or violates any regulations due to regulatory changes, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to: (a) revise such provision to comply with the applicable law or regulation, and (b) place the Parties in the same material and economic position they would have been in under the original terms of this Statement of Work.

You are prohibited from entering into any transaction that is the same as, substantially similar to, or in competition with the RCM Services provided under this Statement of Work or taking any action that is otherwise reasonably capable of having the effect of preventing us from deriving the full benefit promised by this Statement of Work (e.g. denying us access to Payer Portals). In addition to any other remedies available to Us at law or equity, in the event You breach this Section, We shall be entitled to the payment We otherwise would have received if You had not breached this provision, plus an additional administrative fee equal in amount to the implementation fee specified under the Order Form for RCM Services between You and Us.
    3. Company Software Discounts.

Professional Services & Statements of Work

  1. Statements of Work. From time to time, You and We may agree on certain Professional Services to be performed, and in that case shall prepare a statement of work, or such other form as agreed upon by the parties (a “Statement of Work”). Each Statement of Work, upon execution by both of Us, will be subject to the Agreement. We shall perform for You the Professional Services described in each Statement of Work. You shall comply with the obligations designated as Your responsibility, if any, set forth in each Statement of Work. During the term set forth in any Statement of Work, we may incur substantial increases in technology and/or personnel costs due to changes in the law, Your requirements, or other unforeseen events, to protect the confidentiality, integrity, privacy and availability of Customer Data. In such cases, We may update the fees in any current Statement of Work to reflect such changes and provide written notice thereof to You with the updated Statement of Work (an “Updated SOW”). You shall have fourteen (14) calendar days, commencing on the day We provide You with the updated Statement of Work (“Review Period”), to review the updated fee structure. If You do not provide Us with a written objection to the Updated SOW during any applicable Review Period, the Updated SOW shall go into effect on the first day following the expiration of the Review Period and it shall supersede and replace the prior Statement of Work.

If the breaching Party fails to cure the breach within the Cure Period or according to a plan reasonably acceptable to the non-breaching Party, then the non-breaching Party may terminate the Agreement upon written notice to the breaching Party. In the event We, in our sole discretion, determine that You are in breach of Your payment obligations or are otherwise using the Software and Services in a manner that violates any applicable law or regulation, We may immediately suspend the Software and Services or other services provided hereunder upon written notice to You.

6.6 Exclusion. We may terminate the Agreement if the Company is excluded from participation in Medicare.

6.7 Legal Conflicts with the Agreement. We may terminate this Agreement if in the reasonable opinion of our legal counsel, termination is required to avoid a violation of law if the Agreement were to continue under the existing terms without the Parties mutually agreeing to modify its terms.

6.9 Data Export. Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing and subject to Company’s obligations as described in the Business Associate Attachment, upon termination of the Agreement, You shall bear the full responsibility for the migration of Your data to a new service provider. We, at our option, may provide data exports and any other assistance related to the migration of Your data in accordance with any applicable Documentation at our then current rates for such services.

6.10 Immediate Termination Rights. In addition to our rights set forth in the Agreement, We shall have the right to immediately terminate any Statement of Work for Professional Services by providing written notice to You if You, as determined by Us in our reasonable discretion, (a) engage in fraudulent or questionable billing practices, (b) behave in an unprofessional manner when engaging with our employees or contractors, or (c) did not accurately describe to us, prior to the execution of any Statement of Work, the processes and billing complexities inherent to Your business, and the inaccuracies create an extraordinary burden on us to fulfill the terms of any applicable Statement of Work. Without limiting our rights pursuant to the foregoing, if We terminate a Statement of Work pursuant to this Section, You shall, in addition to all other remedies We may have, pay us, for each Statement of Work then in effect, the remainder of the Term’s anticipated fees based on the greater of (a) estimated monthly volume of processed claims or (b) the running average of monthly fees calculated at the point of early termination. Upon any termination of the Agreement or a Statement of Work, You shall also pay to us all outstanding fees for Professional Services performed by Us.

7. Payment

7.1 Fees and Payment Terms. Fees and payment terms are specified in the Software and Services and/or Order Form and must be agreed to prior to subscription and use of the Software and Services. You agree to be charged for all services as invoiced. Prior to and during the subscription and use of the Software and Services, and until final payment for those Software and Services, You must submit and maintain current and valid payment information. You shall maintain sufficient funds to make payment to us as invoiced. Unless otherwise specified in an Order Form, all payments are due upon receipt, and collected by automatic debit from the payment method that You have provided. All payments are non-refundable and must be made in US dollars. Prices and fees are subject to taxes and other government mandated fees or assessments, as applicable. You will make payments by Automated Clearinghouse (“ACH”) or credit card. If You are a non-profit, upon our written consent, We may also accept a purchase order. If Your ACH or credit card payment fails for any reason, We will try to process it again immediately. We will attempt this three times in total, and You will incur a charge from us for each unsuccessful attempt. Interest accrues on past due balances at the lesser of 1½% per month or the highest rate allowed by law. Credit card payments may be subject to an additional merchant’s fee if stated. Unless expressly provided for otherwise, fees paid or payable for Software and Services are not contingent under any circumstances upon the performance of any other services and may not be withheld. Payment of fees is under no circumstances subject to or conditioned by the delivery of future products or functionality by Company. Further, You shall reimburse Us for each non-sufficient fund charge We incur for any payment made by You. All payments are nonrefundable and any credit that is offered is at our sole discretion.

7.2 Taxes. Unless expressly provided for otherwise, the prices listed for subscriptions do not include taxes. You agree to pay any taxes, other than those based on our net income, arising out of the Agreement. If You are tax-exempt, You agree to provide us with a copy of Your tax-exempt certificate prior to using the Software and Services. You also agree to indemnify us from any liability or expense incurred as a result of Your failure or delay in paying taxes due.

7.3 Pass Through Fees. You agree that Company may increase fees charged to You for the Software and Services in connection with fee increases for third-party products and services integrated or offered with the Software and Services.

7.4 Term and Increases in Fees. Unless otherwise stated in Your subscription and/or an Order Form, the Agreement between You and Us is month-to-month. We reserve the right to increase our fees on month-to-month subscriptions at any time by providing You with fifteen (15) days written notice. If Your Order Form includes an annual or multi-year term, Your fees shall increase every twelve (12) months, at Company’s option: (1) by five percent (5%), (2) to Company’s current list prices then in effect, or (3) by the most recent aggregate change in the Consumer Price Index. “Consumer Price Index” shall mean the United States Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics’ Consumer Price Index.

7.5 Payment Disputes. You must indicate that You are disputing any fees or expenses, in writing, within five (5) business days of receipt of the invoice specifying such fees or expenses.

7.6 Advance Payments. You may within the Software and Services or through an alternate payment agreement with Us, elect to choose to make payments in advance of their due date or may choose to pay for multiple Terms in advance. Unless otherwise expressly stated in a separate Order Form, Purchase Schedule, or subscription, You acknowledge and agree that: (1) all advance payments are nonrefundable, (2) We make no guarantee or representation by acceptance of advance payments that the pricing for the Software and Services will remain the same from month-to-month, and (3) We may change the Software and Services or pricing thereof from month-to-month despite any advance payments.

7.7 Minimums. You understand and agree that fees are based on the number of subscriptions or licenses purchased, and that the number of subscriptions or licenses purchased represents the minimum amount that You have committed to for the relevant Term and cannot be decreased during such Term. In the event Your actual need exceeds the number of subscriptions or licenses for the Software and Services purchased by You, You must purchase additional subscriptions or licenses at our then current rates.

8. Miscellaneous

8.1 Non-solicitation and Noncompete. You acknowledge and agree that our employees and contractors are a valuable asset to us, that we expended significant resources in recruiting and training such employees and contractors, and that such employees and contractors are and would be difficult for us to replace. Accordingly, You agree that, for the term of the Agreement and for a period of twelve (12) months thereafter, You will not solicit, recruit, encourage to cease employment with the Company, or offer to hire or retain any such employee or contractor, whether as an employee, independent contractor or otherwise. In the event You breach the prohibition against solicitation, the Parties agree that it would be difficult to determine the amount of actual damages that would result from such breach. The Parties further agree that in the event You breach the provisions of this Section, You shall pay us liquidated damages equal to one hundred (100%) percent of such employee or contractor’s annualized compensation, which is the Parties’ good faith estimate of the amount of damages resulting from such breach. Additionally, during the term of the Agreement and for twelve (12) months thereafter, You are prohibited from directly or indirectly creating, operating, or managing a service, program, legal entity, or business model that in any way competes with our business model or operations. A breach of this Section 8.1 will be considered a material breach of the Agreement.

8.2 Subcontractors. Company may use affiliates or subcontractors to perform our obligations hereunder.

8.3 Amendment. From time to time and in our sole discretion, Company may change or modify the terms of this Agreement by providing You notice at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such changes or modifications. Company may provide such notice through posting a notice on our websites or web portals, or by sending You a notice through the Software and Services, or by another appropriate means of electronic communication. Such changes or modifications will take effect on the date set forth in the notice and Your continued use of the Software and Services following our notice will constitute Your acceptance of the modified Agreement.

8.4 Waiver; Severability. The failure of any Party to insist in any one or more instances upon performance of any term of the Agreement will not be construed as a waiver of future performance of the term, and the Party’s obligations with respect to such term will continue in full force and effect. The provisions of the Agreement are severable. The invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision in any jurisdiction will be construed and enforced as if it has been narrowly drawn so as not to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable to the extent possible and will in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other terms or provisions in that jurisdiction or of this entire Agreement in that jurisdiction.

8.5 Assignment. Neither Party may assign or transfer the Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that We may assign or transfer the Agreement, without Your consent, to any of our affiliates, subsidiaries, entities controlled by or under common control with Us, or in the event of a merger, change of control or sale of substantially all of our assets. The Agreement will bind the Parties and their respective successors and assigns and will inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors and assigns.

8.6 Force Majeure. If any Party is unable to perform any of its obligations under the Agreement (other than payment obligations) because of any cause beyond its reasonable control, including any act of God, fire, casualty, flood, earthquake, war, strike, lockout, epidemic, pandemic, destruction of production facilities, riot, insurrection or material unavailability, and if the non-performing Party has been unable to avoid or overcome its effects through the exercise of commercially reasonable efforts, such non-performing Party will provide prompt written notice to the other Party. Upon providing such notice, the non-performing Party’s performance will be excused and the time for its performance will be extended for the period of delay or inability to perform due to such occurrences.

8.7 Relationship of the Parties. The sole relationship between the Parties is that of independent contractors. The Agreement will not create a joint venture, partnership, agency, employment, or other relationship between the Parties. Nothing in the Agreement will be construed to create any rights or obligations except among the Parties, and no person or entity will be regarded as a third-party beneficiary of the Agreement, except as otherwise provided in the Agreement.

8.8 Survival. Any term of the Agreement that contemplates performance after termination will survive expiration or termination and continue until fully satisfied.

8.9 System Availability. You understand that as part of scheduled maintenance and other planned downtime events, as well as certain events outside of our direct control resulting in unplanned downtime events, Your access to the Software and Services, hosted by either us or You, may be partially or completely restricted.

8.10 Versioning. We shall only be obligated to support the most recent version of our Software and Services.

8.11 ONC-Certified Software and Services. If You use Software and Services that have been certified through the Office of the National Coordinator’s (“ONC”) Health IT Certification Program, the confidentiality and non-disparagement obligations of these General Terms and Conditions do not apply to 1) the usability of any certified Software and Services, 2) the interoperability of any certified Software and Services, 3) the security of any certified Software and Services, 4) any relevant information regarding users’ experiences when using certified Software and Services, or 5) our business practices with respect to the exchange of electronic health information and how a user of our certified Software and Services has used such technology.

8.12. Exclusivity. During the Term and so long as We have not been determined to be in material breach of the Agreement, You agree that We will be the exclusive provider of the Software and Services, Professional Services, Clearinghouse Services, E-Prescribing Services, Payment Services, and any other substantially similar software or services, at all present or future locations, sites, or facilities that You own or control. In addition, during the Term, You shall not solicit bids, quotes, or contracts from another provider of services substantially similar to the Software and Services, Professional Services, Clearinghouse Services, E-Prescribing Service, or Payment Services for the provision of such services to such additional locations, sites, or facilities not presently covered by the Agreement.

8.13 Injunctive Relief. The Parties agree that, in the event of any breach of any of the covenants and agreements set forth in the Agreement, the non-breaching Party would encounter extreme difficulty in attempting to prove the actual amount of damages suffered by it as a result of such breach and would not have an adequate remedy at law in such event. The Parties therefore agree that, in addition to any other remedy available at law or in equity, in the event of such breach, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to seek and receive specific performance and temporary, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief from violation of any of said covenants and agreements from any court of competent jurisdiction without necessity of proving the amount of any actual damage resulting from such breach and without the necessity to post a bond or other security.

8.14 Headings and Drafting. The headings in the Agreement shall not be used to construe or interpret the Agreement. The Agreement shall not be construed in favor of or against a Party based on the author of the document.

8.15 Prior Agreements. If, prior to the Effective Date, You subscribed, purchased or licensed from Us, or any of our predecessors or affiliates, software, services or other products pursuant to any license or subscription agreement(s) or similar contract(s) (such agreement(s) being the “Prior Agreement”), all Prior Agreements are hereby terminated as of the Effective Date and are of no further effect. This Agreement shall govern the entirety of the Parties’ relationship at all times, provided that obligations for payments not yet made and obligations of confidentiality shall survive termination of the Prior Agreement.

8.16 RCM Services Term and Software and Services Term. An active subscription to the Company’s Software and Services is necessary to receive revenue cycle management and other billing services from Us, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties on an Order Form. Therefore, in the event You subsequently subscribe to RCM Services on our RCM Statement of Work, the contract Term of Your license or subscription for our Software and Services shall automatically be extended to the date of expiration or termination of Your RCM Statement of Work, if later.

8.17 Publicity. Neither Party will issue any press release or other voluntary public communication regarding this Agreement, or the relationship described by this Agreement, without giving the other Party an opportunity to review and comment upon such communication and obtaining the written consent of the other Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, during the term of this Agreement, We may identify You publicly as our customer in press releases, on our website, or otherwise in listings of customers, provided that such identification does not reveal any terms of this Agreement beyond the basic nature of the services provided and does not mischaracterize the relationship.

8.18 Export Laws. You shall comply fully with all relevant export laws and regulations of the United States to ensure that the Protected Materials are not exported, directly or indirectly, in violation of United States law.

8.19 Inspection of Books and Records. You agree to maintain adequate books and records related to compliance with the terms of the Agreement, including but not limited to all terms related to payment and licensing. Such books and records shall be available for our inspection at a mutually agreed upon time and place for the purpose of determining whether You have complied with the terms of the Agreement. We shall have the right to conduct such an inspection once per calendar year upon providing You with thirty (30) days advance written notice.

8.20 Entire Agreement. The Agreement, all applicable attachments and amendments, Statements of Work, and Order Forms constitute the entire agreement between the Parties relating to this subject matter and supersede all prior or simultaneous understandings, representations, discussions, negotiations, and agreements, whether written or oral, including the Prior Agreements.

8.21 No Third-party Beneficiaries. The Agreement is for the benefit of the Parties and their successors and permitted assigns and does not confer any rights or benefits on any third party, including any employee of a Party, any client or customer of a Party, or any employee of a client or customer of a Party.

8.22 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right it may have to a trial by jury in any legal action, proceeding, cause of action, or counterclaim arising out of or relating to the Agreement.

8.23 Class Action Waiver. The Parties agree that any litigation arising out of or relating to the Agreement may only be maintained on an individual basis, and any right to pursue any claims arising out of or relating to the Agreement may not consolidate more than one Party’s individual claims or be raised on behalf of a class of Parties.

8.24 Dispute Resolution. Any and all disputes, controversies or claims (each a “Dispute”) arising out of, relating to or in connection with the Agreement, including, without limitation, any dispute regarding its arbitrability, validity or termination, or the performance or breach thereof, shall be exclusively and finally settled by arbitration under Delaware law administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). Any party may initiate arbitration by notice to the other party (a “Request for Arbitration”). The arbitration shall be conducted on a confidential basis in accordance with the AAA rules governing commercial arbitration (the “Rules”) in effect at the time of the arbitration, except as they may be modified by the provisions of this Agreement. The place of the arbitration shall be Minneapolis, Minnesota. The language of the arbitration shall be English. Any decision or award as a result of any such arbitration proceeding shall be in writing, shall provide an explanation for all conclusions of law and fact, and shall include an assessment of costs, expenses, and reasonable attorneys’ fees.

AMA Supplemental License Terms Attachment

These American Medical Association (“AMA”) Supplemental License Terms, as amended from time to time (“AMA Supplemental Terms”), constitute the supplemental license terms of the AMA as a third-party supplier to Company and an intended third-party beneficiary of the Agreement between Customer and Company. These AMA Supplemental Terms are hereby incorporated into the Agreement for all of Company’s products (“Company Product(s)”), without need for further action.

  1. Grant of Rights, Restrictions, and Obligations:
    1. Company uses content from the print publication Current Procedural Terminology, Fourth Edition (CPT), which is copyrighted by the American Medical Association. CPT® is a registered trademark of the AMA.
    2. Company as a party to a license agreement with the AMA (“AMA License”) is authorized to grant Customer a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license for Customer to use CPT content in the Company Products for the sole purpose of internal use by Customer within the United States. The fees for the sublicense will be included on Customer’s invoice for the Company Products and collected by the Company from Customer for payment to the AMA. The sublicense granted hereunder shall automatically terminate upon termination of the AMA License unless prior written consent of AMA is obtained by the Company or a direct license between Customer and the AMA is entered.
    3. The provision of updated CPT content in the Company Products is dependent on a continuing contractual relationship between the Company and the AMA.
    4. Customer is prohibited from making CPT content publicly available, creating derivative works (including translating), transferring, selling, leasing, licensing, or otherwise making the Company’s Products available to any unauthorized party, or making a copy or portion of CPT content available to any unauthorized party, including a subsidiary, affiliate, or other legal entity, however designated, for any purpose whatsoever except as expressly permitted in the Agreement.
    5. Customer expressly acknowledges and agrees, to the extent permitted by applicable law, use of the CPT content is at Customer’s sole risk and the CPT content is provided “as is” without warranty of any kind. The AMA does not directly or indirectly practice medicine or dispense medical services. Fee schedules, relative value units, conversion factors and/or related components are not assigned by the AMA, are not part of CPT, and the AMA is not recommending their use. The CPT content does not replace the AMA’s Current Procedural Terminology book or other appropriate coding authority. The coding information contained in the CPT content should be used only as a guide.
    6. Customer is required to keep records and submit reports, including information necessary for the calculation of royalties payable to the AMA by the Company, of the same type as required of the Company under the AMA License. All records and reports required under this section shall be subject to audit by the AMA.
  2. Notices:
    1. Customer understands and acknowledges that CPT is copyrighted by the AMA and that CPT is a registered trademark of the AMA.
    2. U.S. Government Customers. CPT is commercial technical data, which was developed exclusively at private expense by the American Medical Association (AMA), 330 North Wabash Avenue, Chicago, Illinois 60611. This Attachment does not grant the Federal Government a direct license to use CPT based on FAR 52.227-14 (Data Rights – General) and DFARS 252.227-7015 (Technical Data – Commercial Items).
  3. Miscellaneous:
