  1. Our Use of Protected Health Information

Our Services may include use of your patients’ Protected Health Information that you or your personnel input or upload onto the Services or that we receive on your behalf from your authorized service providers or our third party partners (“Your Health Information”). You retain all rights with regard to Your Health Information, and we will only use such information as expressly permitted in this Agreement and our Business Associate Agreement. You authorize us, as your business associate, to use and disclose Your Health Information as follows:

  • We will permit access to Your Health Information by business associates to whom you have consented to provide access to the Services and who have otherwise agreed to integrate with our systems pursuant to appropriate assurances (i.e. practice management integration vendor). You acknowledge that once we have granted access rights to another provider or covered entity (or their respective business associates), we have no control over the uses and disclosures that the business associate makes of Your Health Information, and the recipient may be subject to its own legal or regulatory obligations (including HIPAA) to retain such information and make such information available to patients, governmental authorities and others as required by applicable law or regulation.
  • We may “De-Identify” (means health information that has been de-identified in accordance with the provisions of the Privacy Rule) Your Health Information and use and disclose de-identified information as provided by Section 8.

Preparation of such analyses and reports may include the use of data aggregation services relating to your treatment and health care operations, which we may perform using Your Health Information. Such reporting will be done in a manner that does not make any disclosure of Your Health Information that you would not be permitted to make.
  • We may use Your Health Information for the proper management and administration of the Services and our business, and to carry out our legal responsibilities. We may also disclose Your Health Information for such purposes if the disclosure is required by law, or we obtain reasonable assurances from the recipient that it will be held confidentially and used or further disclosed only (a) as required by law (as such term is defined in 45 CFR §164.103), or (b) for the purpose for which it was disclosed to the recipient, and the recipient notifies us of any instances of which it is aware in which the confidentiality of the information has been breached. Without limiting the foregoing, we may permit access to the system by our contracted system developers under appropriate confidentiality agreements.
  • We may use Your Health Information and Directory Information (defined below) to contact your patients on your behalf for certain Services, including (a) for treatment and health care operations messages, including sending appointment requests and reminders or post-visit treatment satisfaction surveys; (b) to request authorization on your behalf from your patients to use or disclose their health information for any purpose for which use or disclosure may be made with an appropriate authorization, including marketing purposes; and (c) to provide information about health-related products or services that you provide, or that we provide on your behalf as your business associate.
  • From time to time we may incorporate information we receive from your authorized service providers; (including Third-Party Services as discussed in Section 19) or our third party partners into the Services we provide to you. Such information may include, without limitation, clinical information such as lab results, imaging results, eligibility information, and prescription history; and shall, upon incorporation into the Services, be treated as “Your Health Information” for all purposes hereunder. You hereby authorize us to request and receive such information on your behalf from such authorized service providers or our third party partners.
  1. De-Identified Information

In consideration of our provision of the Services, you hereby transfer and assign to us all right, title and interest in and to all De-Identified Information that we make from Your Health Information pursuant to Section 7. You agree that we may use, disclose, market, license and sell such De-Identified Information for any purpose without restriction, and that you have no interest in such information, or in the proceeds of any sale, license, or other commercialization thereof. You acknowledge that the rights conferred by this Section are the principal consideration for the provision of the Services, without which we would not enter into this Agreement.

  1. Individuals’ Rights

You are solely responsible for affording individuals their rights with respect to relevant portions of Your Health Information, such as the rights of access and amendment. You will not undertake to afford an individual any rights with respect to any information in the Services other than Your Health Information.

  1. Electronic Communications

Use of the Internet and electronic communication tools are solely at your own risk and are subject to all applicable local, state, federal, and international laws and regulations. While we have endeavored to create secure and reliable Services, please be advised that the confidentiality of any communication or material transmitted to us over the Internet, including email, cannot be assured. You acknowledge that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, including email, is 100% secure.

10.1   Email

You agree that we or our supplier may establish general practices and limits concerning use of email services, including without limitation, restricting the volume of messages transmitted or received by you in order to maintain the quality of our email services to other customers and to protect our computer systems. Email Services may not be used for bulk mail, open relay, or mass mailings, unless specifically permitted by the service provider. If bulk mail, open relay, or mass mailings are permitted through your Services, you may not use such bulk mail, open relay, or mass mailing service to send or communicate personal health information to your patients. You understand and agree that neither us nor our suppliers assume responsibility for the timeliness, deletion, mis-delivery, non-delivery or failure to store or accurately store, any user communications, addresses or personalization settings. You are responsible for third party fees, such as those from Internet service provider or airtime charges and you must provide and are responsible for all equipment necessary to access email services.

  • Privacy and Security Rules

The Privacy Rule allows covered health care providers to communicate electronically, such as through e-mail, with their patients, provided they apply reasonable safeguards when doing so. See 45 C.F.R. § 164.530(c).

  • Covered Entities are permitted to send an individual unencrypted email if they have advised the individual of the risk and the individual still prefers the unencrypted email.
  • Covered Entities are not responsible for safeguarding information once delivered to the individual.
  • Patients may initiate communications with a healthcare provider using e-mail. If this situation occurs, the healthcare provider can assume (unless the patient has explicitly stated otherwise) that e-mail communications are acceptable to the individual. If the provider feels the patient may not be aware of the possible risks of using unencrypted e-mail, or has concerns about potential liability, the provider can alert the patient of those risks, and let the patient decide whether to continue e-mail communications.

You must ensure that any transmission of electronically protected health information is in compliance with the HIPAA Security Rule requirements at 45 C.F.R. Part 164, Subpart C and take the following precautions and when using e-mail or text Services to avoid unintentional disclosures:

  • Verify the e-mail address and phone number for accuracy before sending, or sending an e-mail alert to the patient for address confirmation prior to sending the message.
  • Limit the amount or type of information disclosed through the unencrypted e-mail or text message.

You further represent:

  • You have appropriate privacy notices warning patients about the potential security risks of transmitting protected health information using email over the non-secure portion of the Internet.
  • You have accurately disclosed your practice’s privacy practices including mentioning you have business associates who may host, transmit and store personal information in connection with email, text, appointment reminders and other services.
  • You have obtained and documented patient consent to include personal health information in email and text message.
  • You will manually encrypt transmitted files including PHI that you are sending to patients.
  • CAN-SPAM

You agree to comply with all elements of CAN-SPAM and safe sender email practices. This includes but not limited to including unsubscribe links, your full contact information in all correspondence, and not releasing private and/or confidential information. You may only use email services for those customers with which you have an existing business relationship and which have indicated that they accept correspondence from you. You may not attempt to spoof sender domains, send spam or other offending email. Because of carrier technologies, we make no expressed or implied warranty of individual message receipt. We are not liable for any issues that arise associated with the content that you provide or unforeseen liabilities of it being delivered.

10.2    Text Messages

We may automate text message communications as a Service, but you are responsible for ensuring that the recipients of those communications have provided prior express written consent to receive them. The prior express written consent must identify that you may be sending text messages related to your goods and services using automated technology and that your customer affirmatively agrees to receive such messages. The prior express consent must include your customers’ written or electronic acceptance. Specifically, by entering a cell phone number into your management system or the Company system and not opting such cell phone out of the Company text message feature, you are directing Company to automatically send text message reminders and other communications to such cell phone and certifying that the user of such cell phone consents to the receipt of those messages. For Canada based businesses, you agree to adopt the double opt-in process comprising of 1) you may only use text message services for those customers with which you have an existing business relationship and which have indicated that they accept correspondence from you and 2) the customers must reply to an opt-in message from their handset. For reliable delivery, you must adhere to message limitations including length and delivery. You are responsible for all liability for any failure to receive consent or failure to opt users out of the text message feature. Additionally, you may not attempt to spoof sender domains, send spam or other offending text messages. You will not use the text message communication services on a phone number that has been exchanged, rented or purchased from a third party without the permission of the owner of such phone number. We make no expressed or implied warranty of individual message receipt. Standard text message rates apply for all text message services. We are not liable for any issues that arise associated with the content that you provide or unforeseen liabilities of it being delivered.

  1. Directory Services

We may include your Directory Information (defined below) in our (and our affiliates) (a) “Public Provider Directories,” which are electronic directories for patients and the general public; and (b) “Professional Provider Directories,” which are electronic directories for Providers and other members of the healthcare community ((a) and (b) collectively, “Provider Directories”). Provider Directories may be made available in various electronic formats, including searchable databases, Provider landing pages, interactive reference tools, and integrated look-up features, among others. They may also incorporate information designed to help users, such as integrated maps, and licensure confirmation tools, among others. Provider Directories may include a “contact” feature that allows users to contact other users directly through the Services. Our Public Provider Directory may be made available to public search engines to aid Provider discovery. Listing in the Provider Directories is subject to eligibility criteria, which may differ between the Public Provider Directory and Professional Provider Directory. If you meet the applicable criteria, some or all of your Directory Information will be automatically included in the applicable Provider Directory(ies), unless you inform us in writing that you wish to be excluded. In addition, unless you inform us in writing that you wish to be excluded from the Provider Directories, we may provide your Directory Information and your patients’ reviews of your services to our third party partners who may include your Directory Information and the patient review information on their websites. A Provider’s “Directory Information” includes the Provider’s name, name(s) of physicians or other healthcare professionals associated with a Provider, associated specialties, Provider’s business telephone number(s) and physical address(es), and the Provider’s available appointment slots, as each is indicated from information a Provider has inputted or imported into the Services. The Directory Information may include additional information you input or upload into profile tools we make available in the Services (such as a profile photograph, accepted insurance, available office hours, a front desk email address, and the like), as and when such tools are available. Upon termination of this Agreement by either party, the Business Information and any consumer reviews may remain in any data feeds provided to third parties but is subject to removal at any time as determined by us.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, we are not a referral service and do not recommend or endorse any particular healthcare provider. We may use proprietary processes and algorithms to select, compile and adjust certain data to generate ratings. Ratings compiled are opinion and not statements of fact.

  1. Data Consent for Services

In connection with our provision of technical support, training and other Services, you agree that we may remotely log-in to your computers, devices and systems for purposes of providing the support, training or other Services, including, without limitation, technical trouble shooting, answering questions, benchmarking and providing training to you or your personnel. Remote login may be conducted through the use of third party entities. You further agree that we may also remotely log-in at any time as necessary or appropriate to maintain our Services.

We reserve the right to log off accounts that inactive for an extended period of time.

In addition, we may quarantine suspected messages. We also may modify any domain and user settings with or without notice, including without limitation, altering settings so that spam or bulk email is denied, rather than being quarantined, to avoid space capacity issues which jeopardize the technical or economic viability of the services offered, or the system used to implement the services.

You agree that we may automatically check the version of a Service that you are utilizing and may provide updates or upgrades remotely via the Internet. You consent to the receipt of updates or upgrades by means of download to your computers and systems.

You agree to keep your computers powered on during the Services runtimes that you specify. You must add us or our third party affiliate to the “allowed” list of programs and ensure that your firewall and anti-virus software programs do not block us.
