3. TERM AND
TERMINATION
3.1 Term. This Agreement
shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall continue in effect until
all obligations of the Parties have been met, unless terminated as provided in
this Section 3. In addition, certain provisions and requirements of this
Agreement shall survive its expiration or other termination in accordance with
Section 5.1 herein.
3.2 Termination
by the Covered Entity.
Business Associate hereby acknowledges and agrees that in the event Covered
Entity receives a complaint that includes, or Covered Entity otherwise has or
obtains, substantial and credible evidence that Business Associate has violated
a material term of this Agreement, Covered Entity shall have the right to
investigate such violation, and Business Associate shall cooperate fully with
Covered Entity with respect to such investigation. As provided for under 45
C.F.R. §§ 164.314 (a)(2)(i)(D) & 164.504(e)(2)(iii), Covered Entity may
immediately terminate this Agreement and any related agreements without penalty
or recourse to Covered Entity if Covered Entity determines that Business
Associate has breached a material term of this Agreement. Alternatively, Covered Entity may choose to:
(i) provide Business Associate with written notice of the existence of a
material breach; and (ii) afford Business Associate an opportunity to cure said
material breach, to the satisfaction of Covered Entity, within 30 days of
receipt of Covered Entity’s written notice. Failure to cure is grounds for the
immediate termination of this Agreement. Business Associate further
acknowledges that where Covered Entity determines in its sole discretion that Business
Associate has violated any material term of this Agreement and that it is not
feasible to terminate this Agreement, Covered Entity will report such violation
to HHS and to any other governmental agency as may be required by applicable
law. Termination of this Agreement by
Covered Entity under either alternative shall be in writing.
3.3 Automatic
Termination.
This Agreement will automatically terminate without any further action of the
Parties upon the termination or expiration of the Software Agreement.
3.4 Effect of
Termination.
Upon the event of termination pursuant to this Section 3, Business Associate
agrees to return or destroy all PHI pursuant to 45 C.F.R. § 164.504(e)(2)(ii),
if it is feasible to do so. Prior to doing so, Business Associate further
agrees to recover any PHI in the possession of its subcontractors or agents. If
it is not feasible for Business Associate to return or destroy said PHI,
Business Associate will notify Covered Entity in writing within 10 days of the
termination of this Agreement. Said notification shall include: (i) a statement
that Business Associate has determined that it is infeasible to return or
destroy the PHI in its possession, and (ii) the specific reasons for such determination.
Business Associate further agrees to extend any and all protections,
limitations, and restrictions contained in this Agreement to Business Associate’s
use or disclosure of any PHI retained after the termination of this Agreement,
and to limit any further uses or disclosures to the purposes that make the
return or destruction of the PHI infeasible. If it is not feasible for Business
Associate to obtain from subcontractors or agents any PHI in the possession of
subcontractors or agents, Business Associate shall provide a written
explanation to Covered Entity and require subcontractors and agents to agree to
extend any and all protections, limitations, and restrictions contained in this
Agreement to subcontractors’ or agents’ use or disclosure of any PHI retained
after termination of this Agreement, and to limit any further uses or
disclosures to the purposes that make return or destruction of the PHI infeasible.
4.
INDEMNIFICATION
4.1
Indemnification.
Business Associate agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Covered Entity
and Covered Entity’s employees, directors, trustees, officers, subcontractors,
agents or other members of its workforce (each of the foregoing hereinafter
referred to as “indemnified party”) against all losses suffered by the
indemnified party and all liability to third parties arising from or in connection
with any material breach of this Agreement by Business Associate or its employees,
directors, officers, subcontractors, agents, or other members of its workforce.
Accordingly, on demand, Business Associate shall reimburse the indemnified
party for any and all losses, liabilities, fines, penalties, costs, or expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that may for any reason be imposed upon
indemnified party by reason of any suit, claim, action, proceeding, or demand
by any third party which results from such breach hereunder. Business Associate
and its subcontractors or agents shall not be liable to Covered Entity under
this Agreement for any special, incidental, indirect, punitive, or
consequential damages, whether based on breach of contract, warranty, tort, or
product liability, and whether or not Business Associate has been advised of
the possibility of such damage. Business Associate’s obligation to indemnify
Covered Entity/indemnified party shall survive the expiration or termination of
this Agreement for any reason.

rights and obligations of Business Associate and Covered Entity under the
provisions of Sections 3.4 (Effect of Termination), 4.1 (Indemnification), 5.3
(No Third Party Beneficiaries), and Section 2.1 (Responsibilities of the
Business Associate, solely with respect to PHI Business Associate retains in
accordance with Section 3.4 where it is not feasible to return or destroy such
PHI), shall survive termination of this Agreement indefinitely.
5.2 Amendments;
Waiver.
This Agreement may not be modified, nor shall any provision hereof be waived or
amended, except in a writing duly signed by authorized representatives of the
Parties. A waiver with respect to one event shall not be construed as
continuing, or as a bar to or waiver of any right or remedy as to subsequent
events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in order to ensure that this Agreement
at all times remains consistent with applicable law regarding use and
disclosure of PHI (including, but not limited to, the HIPAA Regulations),
Business Associate agrees that this Agreement may be amended from time to time

respective successors or assigns of the Parties, any rights, remedies,
obligations, or liabilities whatsoever.

permits Covered Entity to comply with the HIPAA Regulations.

Terms of
Service Agreement
Privacy -
Period!
This
is probably one of the few places in the world that will discuss how this
information exchanged between you and us is to be used and how it is exchanged
via high speed internet connections. The data that leaves your computer is
encrypted. In the unlikely event that someone “hijacks” the data in the less
than 1 second it takes to get from you to us, they would not be able to read or
decipher the data. After we verify who is sending us data, we decrypt it and
place it in the proper format to go to the Medicare database. That journey and
back takes place along a “secure” connection as required by CMS. Once the
information is returned to us, we place it into a format that you can read,
encrypt it and send it on to you. Your computer screen shows it in human
readable form. You should not discuss the information with anyone other than
the patient and others in your office who are allowed
to by you. You must take the necessary precautions to safeguard this
information. We will consider your use of the Service, including the content of
your communications, to be private. However, to the extent permitted by law, we
may be requested by CMS or their agents to give them information about you,
including contents of transactions to: (1) conform to legal requirements or
respond to legal process; (2) ensure your compliance with this contract; or (3)
protect the rights, property, or interests of ICS Software, Ltd., its
employees, its customers, persons whose identity is contained within the
submission, or the public.
You Are
Responsible For Your Account.
You
are responsible for all activity under your account. You may authorize other
persons working directly for you or your office to use your account, and you
are responsible for keeping confidential any password for your account. We may
allow you to have additional member accounts associated to your account. We
refer to these as "associated accounts." We may limit who may use any
associated accounts. You must tell us right away about anyone using any of your
accounts or associated accounts without your consent, or any security breach
that relates to the Service.
Software.
We
may provide you with software. If you receive software from us, your use of
that software is under the terms of the license that is presented to you for
acceptance for that software. If there is no license presented to you, then we
grant you the right to use the software only for the authorized use. Copyright
and other intellectual property laws and treaties protect such software and
content. We reserve all other rights to the software. ICS Software, Ltd. owns
the title, copyright, and other intellectual property rights in such software.
We
may automatically check your version of the software. We may automatically
download upgrades to such software to your computer to update, enhance and
further develop the Service. Your license will end on the date your Service
ends. Your license will also end if we modify the Service in a way that no
longer supports such software. Promptly after the date your Service ends, you
shall uninstall such software. We may disable such software after the date the
Service ends.
You
will not disassemble, decompile, or reverse engineer any software or any
machine included in the Service, except and only to the extent that the law
expressly permits such activity.
The
software is subject to United States HIPAA privacy laws and regulations. You
must comply with all domestic and international export laws and regulations
that apply to the software. These laws include restrictions on destinations,
end users and end use.
Performance
and Usage Information.
We
may automatically upload performance and usage data for evaluating the Service
and the software associated with the Service. Such data will not personally
identify you. You may opt out of the automatic uploading of your usage data
(but not performance data) as indicated in software associated with the
Service.
How We May
Change the Contract.
If
we change this contract, then we will tell you at least 30 days before the
change is in force. We will tell you of the change by e-mail or online posting.
We may also use other ways that we believe will reach you. If you do not agree
to such changes, then you must cancel and stop using the Service before the
changes are in force. If you do not stop using the Service, then your use of
the Service will continue under the changed contract.
WE MAKE NO
WARRANTY.
We
provide the software "as-is," "with all faults" and
"as available." The software is designed for commercial use. The ICS
Parties give no express warranties, guarantees or conditions. You may have
additional consumer rights under your local laws that this contract cannot
change. To the extent permitted by law, we exclude the implied warranties of
merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, workmanlike effort and
non-infringement.
LIABILITY
LIMITATION; YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY.
You
can recover from the ICS Parties only direct damages up to an amount equal to
your Service fee for one month. You cannot recover any other damages, including
consequential, lost profits, special, indirect or incidental damages.
This
limitation applies to
·
any
matter related to the Service,
·
any
matter related to content (including code) on third party Internet sites, third
party programs or third party conduct,
·
any
matter related to viruses or other disabling features that affect your access
to or use of the Service,
·
any
matter related to incompatibility between the Service and other services,
software and hardware,
·
any
matter related to delays or failures you may have in initiating, conducting or
completing any transmissions or transactions in connection with the Service in
an accurate or timely manner, and
·
claims for breach of
contract, breach of warranty, guarantee or condition, strict liability,
negligence, or other tort to the extent permitted by applicable law.
It
also applies even if
·
this
remedy does not fully compensate you for any losses, or fails of its essential
purpose; or
·
ICS
Software, Ltd. knew or should have known about the possibility of the damages.
Some
states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential
damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. They also
may not apply to you because your province or country may not allow the
exclusion or limitation of incidental, consequential or other damages.
Changes to the
Software; Our Cancellation of Service.
We
may change the software or delete features at any time and for any reason. We
may cancel or suspend your Service at any time. Our cancellation or suspension
may be without cause and/or without notice. Upon Service cancellation, your right to use the Service stops right away. Once the
Service is cancelled or suspended, any data you have stored on the Service may
not be retrieved later. Our cancellation of the Service will not alter your
obligation to pay all charges made to your Billing Account. If we cancel the
Service in its entirety without cause, then we will refund to you, on a
pro-rata basis the amount of your payment corresponding to the portion of your
Service remaining right before such cancellation.
Choice of Law and
Location for Resolving Disputes.
If
this contract is with ICS Software, Ltd., then claims for breach of this
contract will be subject to the laws of the State of New York, without
reference to conflict of laws principles. All other claims, including claims
regarding consumer protection laws, unfair competition laws, and in tort, will
be subject to the laws of your state of residence in the United States.
If
this contract is with ICS Software, Ltd., you consent to the exclusive
jurisdiction and venue of state or federal courts in Nassau County, New York,
USA for all disputes relating to this contract or the Service. You cannot
revoke this consent.
Interpreting
the Contract.
All
parts of this contract apply to the maximum extent permitted by law. A court may
hold that we cannot enforce a part of this contract as written. If this
happens, then we will replace that part with terms that most closely match the
intent of the part that we cannot enforce. The rest of this contract will not
change. This is the entire contract between us regarding your use of the
Service. It supersedes any prior contract or statements regarding your use of
the Service. If you have confidentiality obligations related to the Service,
those obligations remain in force (for example, you may have been a beta
tester). The section titles in the contract do not limit the other terms of
this contract.
Assignment.
We
may assign this contract, in whole or in part, at any time with or without
notice to you. You may not assign this contract, or any part of it, to any
other party. Any attempt by you to do so is void. Instead, you may cancel your
Service. The other party may then establish a Service account and enter into a
contract with us.
Claim Must Be
Filed Within One Month.
Any
claim related to this contract or the Service must be brought within one month.
The one-month period begins on the date when the claim first could be filed. If
it is not filed, then that claim is permanently barred. This applies to you and
your successors. It also applies to us and our successors and assigns.
