You may not choose a name for your Patients Medical User ID that you do not have permission to use, or one of another person with the purpose to pass for that person. Without our previous written consent, you may not transfer your account to another person.

You certify and indicate that you are of legal age to enter into a contract in your state of residence. If you are using or taking part in the Program on behalf of someone else as that person’s parent, guardian, conservator, or custodian (“Family Member”), you represent and warrant that you have the legal capacity to accept these Terms on their behalf and to give the family member’s consent to treatment.

You may use the Services only in a way that complies with all applicable laws, and only for your own internal, private, noncommercial use. You may not use the Services on behalf of or for the profit of any third party. Some Services might not be accessible in your state or country due to state and federal laws that apply to Patients Medical and the Practices (described below). You guarantee that you are not a person who is prohibited by US law or the laws of another applicable jurisdiction where you may be situated from signing up for and/or receiving the Services.

Any illegal use of your Patients MedicalUser ID must be reported right away to Patients Medicalby sending an email to info@patientsmedical.com

2. Practices; providers. 

The Services are used by healthcare providers (“Providers”) to organize your access to specific healthcare services through the Program. You can interact with Providers, accountability coaches (referred to as “Coaches”), and Patients Medical support staff via telehealth using the Services. Each Provider uses their own independent medical judgment when giving treatment or advice through the Program. Providers provide medical services for the Program. Each Provider works for or is under contract with a business that is separately owned by a doctor who is certified to practice medicine, notPatients Medical. All references to Practice or Practices in this Agreement shall be deemed to include all Providers as well as Patients Medical.

If you have a medical or mental health emergency, are considering suicide, or are taking actions that could harm you or others, you should seek emergency treatment at the nearest emergency room or dial 911. THE SERVICES ARE NOT, AND SHOULD NEVER BE USED AS, A SUBSTITUTE FOR EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARE.

3. Statement of the Program. 

Using interactive audio, video, messaging, and other communication and media tools through the Services, providers deliver specific healthcare services under the Program. Through the Program, coaches may also offer non-clinical wellness-related services.

Although you may have the chance to establish ongoing care relationships with providers, your initial meeting may only serve as a consultation (to ascertain whether you are eligible to participate in a program, for example) and won’t inevitably result in a provider-patient relationship. For instance, a Provider might decide that the Program is inappropriate for you or all of your treatment requirements. Any Provider might also decide not to offer you certain clinical services or to offer the Program to you in any other way through the Services. Your Provider retains the right to refuse care if there is a possibility that the Program will be abused or for any other reason, including if, in your Provider’s professional opinion, the provision of the Program is not morally or medically acceptable.

Providers may request lab, imaging, and other diagnostic procedures to be performed outside of the Practices, including at clinical laboratories and testing facilities, as part of the provision of clinical services. Additionally, providers have the authority to write orders for drugs that are sold by pharmacies unaffiliated with the Practices. You might have extra expenses for these tests or prescriptions in each instance. The data and materials you submit through the Services, including any data and materials you might have gotten from other healthcare professionals, may also be used by the suppliers.

You must accept the Consent to Telehealth and recognize receipt of the Notice of Privacy Practices in order to use the Program or engage in other Program activities. Additional terms and conditions, such as the Membership Terms & Conditions (for non-employer programs) and those relating to third-party goods and services (such as those provided by pharmaceutical makers), may need to be accepted before you can use or participate in the Program. Even though you might be needed to accept these terms and conditions from a third party, you are unable to bindPatients Medical, a Practice, or any Provider to them.

The Program consists of a direct health care service; for the avoidance of doubt, it is not health insurance. THIS AGREEMENT DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A HEALTH INSURANCE PRODUCT AND DOES NOT MEET ANY INDIVIDUAL HEALTH INSURANCE MANDATE THAT MAY BE REQUIRED BY FEDERAL LAW, INCLUDING THE FEDERAL PATIENT PROTECTION AND AFFORDABLE CARE ACT. Practices do not submit claims to, or otherwise interact with, federal or state health insurance systems like Medicare and Medicaid. A Provider) might advise you to get services that the Practices don’t provide (like, for instance, specialized services or diagnostic tests), but no Practice will ever be held liable for the costs of any such tests or services. It is your responsibility to comprehend your benefits and whether any suggested tests or services might be covered by your insurance if you have health insurance. Regarding whether your insurance provider will pay any fees or other costs or expenditures you incur in connection with the Program or any other services you might receive, Patients Medicalmakes no guarantees or representations in this regard.

You and Patients Medical acknowledge and agree that Patients Medical officers, directors, employees, and independent contractors (“Personnel”) are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms for the purposes of any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Personnel will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as the third-party beneficiary hereof.

(a) Application of the Arbitration Agreement and the Arbitration Rules. Any dispute, claim, question, or disagreement coming out of or pertaining to the subject matter of these Terms must first be resolved by good-faith negotiations between the parties before either can bring an arbitration claim. If these talks fail to resolve the conflict, binding arbitration will be used to settle it in the Borough of Manhattan, City of New York, State of New York. The arbitration will be conducted by one commercial arbitrator with extensive expertise in resolving intellectual property and commercial contract disputes in the English language, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (the “Rules”) then in force. According to these Rules, the arbitrator will be chosen from the relevant JAMS arbitrator roster. Any court with the necessary jurisdiction may issue judgment based on the arbitrator’s decision.

(c) Arbitration fees. All costs for arbitration will be paid in accordance with the Rules. For cases that are less than seventy-five thousand dollars ($75,000), Patients Medical will cover all arbitration costs. If the arbitrator finds that your claim is frivolous, Patients Medical will not ask for its legal expenses and costs.

Infringement; Small Claims Court. If your claims are eligible, you or Patients Medical may present them in small claims court in the Borough of Manhattan in New York City, New York, or in any other US county where you reside or conduct business. In addition, each party shall have the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief at any time from any court of competent jurisdiction, notwithstanding the foregoing requirement that disputes be arbitrated, to stop the actual or potential infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property rights.

(d) Jury Trial Waiver. You Patients Medical are instead electing to have claims and conflicts arbitrated, and you and Calibrate hereby WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR JURY. Arbitration procedures are usually more constrained, more effective, and less expensive than rules that apply in court and are only very rarely subject to judicial review. You and Patients Medical agree to forego your right to a jury trial in favor of having a judge decide your case in any legal battle over whether to execute or invalidate an arbitration award.

(e) The waiver of collective or class actions. Claims of more than one customer or user cannot be arbitrated or litigated jointly or consolidated with those of any other customer or user. If this waiver of class or consolidated actions is found to be invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor Patients Medical e is entitled to arbitration; instead, all claims and disputes will be resolved by individual arbitration.

(f) Refuse. By sending a written notice of your decision to opt out toPatients Medical, , Attn:Patients Medical Legal, 1148 Fifth Avenue, Suite 1B, New York, NY 10128., postmarked within thirty (30) days of first accepting these Terms, you have the right to reject the provisions of this Section. You must clearly indicate that you want to opt out of the arbitration clause in these Terms and include (i) your name and residential address, (ii) the email address and/or phone number connected to your account.

(g) A Special Location. The aforementioned arbitration agreement will not apply to either you or Patients Medical if you send the opt-out notice in (f), and/or in any situations where the foregoing arbitration agreement allows either of you or Patients Medicato litigate any dispute arising out of or relating to the subject matter of these Terms in court. Instead, both you and Patients Medicaagree that any judicial proceeding (other than small claims actions) will be brought in the state or federal courts located in, respectively

All of the preceding wording in this Arbitration Agreement section shall be deemed null and void in the event that the foregoing restriction on class actions and other claims brought on behalf of third parties is determined to be unenforceable.
