SECURITY

The Services are designed to require Authorized Users to provide a valid, working e-mail address and password to access and use the System, Services, and Materials.  Upon registering, You will select a password.  Your e-mail address and the password and any codes assigned to You are, collectively, Your “User Information.”  You are solely responsible for (A) maintaining the strict confidentiality of Your User Information, (B) not allowing any other person to use Your User Information to access the Services, (C) any and all damages or losses that may be incurred or suffered as a result of any activities that occur under Your User Information.

Clarify hereby notifies You that any or all communications within this System can and will be monitored, captured, recorded, and transmitted to the authorities as deemed necessary by Clarify in its sole discretion and without further notice.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, as an Authorized User, You remain responsible for Your individual compliance with any additional applicable notification requirements related to the unauthorized use of User Information or Authorized User Content, including but not limited to, any applicable Breach and/or Security Incident notification requirements established under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

Clarify’s ability to monitor the System and Services and to audit individual user activity shall not obligate us in any way to engage in such monitoring on a continuous basis and/or at any particular point in time.  Clarify has no duty to police, censor, or remove any user-generated content.

PATIENT CONSENT AND AUTHORIZATIONS.

If the Customer for which You are an Authorized User is a California entity and a health care provider, You shall make sure that all Patient consents and/or authorizations required by applicable law have been obtained. Specifically, (1) prior to requesting medication history data for a specific Patient, You shall obtain the consent, in the form of a signed election, from each Patient (a) affirming the Patient’s desire to either opt-in or opt-out of receiving the Services and (b) authorizing the Customer to obtain medication history data about the specific Patient; and (2) you must seek patient consent, which is compliant with Section 56.10 of the California Civil Code, for redisclosure of information to Us and to any third party vendors We use to power the Services. You shall comply with any privacy and Patient consent policies of Clarify related to the delivery of Private Information as may be published and/or amended by Us from time to time, which policies shall be considered part of the Materials. You also acknowledge that certain of our Data Sources may impose additional privacy and patient consent policies on the delivery of Private Information (See Below).

ACCESS TO SURESCRIPTS DATA

If You are authorized to access Surescripts Data through the Customer’s Agreement, the following Terms of Use apply to You:

1. Patient Consents. If Customer is a healthcare provider, prior to requesting medication history data for a specific Patient, You will obtain a signed consent from each Patient (a) affirming the Patient’s desire to either opt-in or opt-out of receiving the Services and (b) authorizing You to obtain medication history data about the specific Patient. You must comply with any privacy and patient consent policies of Surescripts related to the delivery of Private Information as Surescripts publishes or amends from time to time.
2. Treating Provider. If Customer is a healthcare provider, You may only request a Prescription History Profile on a Patient for whom You are currently providing treatment services and You may only use the resulting Prescription History Profile for that Patient’s treatment.
3. Limitations of Surescripts. We rely on Surescripts to provide patient prescription benefit and/or medication history data. Because this data is maintained in multiple places, not all of which are accessible to Surescripts, and because not all patient information is kept in a standard fashion or is regularly updated, it is possible that false matches may occur or that there may be errors or omissions in the provided data. Therefore, it is solely Your responsibility (or another treating physician or health care provider) to verify prescription benefit or medication history information through other means with each Patient and/or the Patient’s representatives before You rely on such information or use it in diagnosing or treating the Patient. Neither Clarify nor Surescripts is a health plan, health care provider or prescriber.  Neither Clarify nor Surescripts independently verifies or reviews the information transmitted in connection with the Services for accuracy or completeness.  Neither Clarify nor Surescripts provides any representations or warranties with respect to the accuracy or completeness of the prescription benefit or medication history information. You agree to release and hold harmless Us and Surescripts and any person or entity providing prescription benefit or medication history information from any liability, cause of action, or claim related to the completeness or lack thereof of the medication history information.
4. No Substitution for Written Prescription or Documentation. Use of the Surescripts Services is not a substitute for Your standard practice or professional judgment.  Any decision with regard to the appropriateness of treatment, or the validity or reliability of information, is the sole responsibility of a Patient’s health care provider.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

You agree that any dispute between You and Clarify arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Agreement, and/or the Services (collectively, “Disputes”) will be governed by the dispute resolution procedure outlined below. We want to address Your concerns without needing a formal legal case, so We have included a tiered dispute resolution process.

1. Before filing a claim against Clarify, You agree to try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting [email protected]. We’ll try to resolve the Dispute informally by contacting You through email. If a dispute is not resolved within 15 days after submission, You or Customer may bring a formal proceeding, as outlined below.

2. In the event of any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Agreement, or a breach thereof, You and/or Customer shall attempt to settle the dispute with non-binding mediation through the American Health Lawyers Association.If both Parties agree to mediation they shall, in writing, jointly demand mediation and afterward jointly select a suitable mediator from the AHLA roster. If the Parties cannot agree upon a mediator, the AHLA shall designate one. The Parties will mediate according to the AHLA’s Agreement to Mediate. The findings, conclusions and recommendations of the mediator shall be non-binding, confidential and inadmissible in arbitration.

3. Either Party shall have the right to bypass mediation and/or reject the Mediator’s findings, conclusions and recommendations. In either event all claims and disputes shall be resolved exclusively using binding arbitration through the AHLA. The Parties agree to employ three (3) arbitrators where one (1) is selected by each Party and the third (3rd) is selected by mutual consent of the Parties. If the Parties cannot agree to the third arbitrator the first two (2) arbitrators chosen shall select the third arbitrator. The selection decision shall be binding.The arbitration shall be conducted by telephone, online and/or be solely based on written submissions—the specific manner shall be chosen by the party initiating the arbitration. The arbitration shall not involve any personal appearance by the parties or witnesses unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties; and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.Each Party shall pay 50% of all mediator and/or arbitrator costs, expenses and fees incurred in connection with mediating and/or arbitrating under this Agreement.Any claim or dispute under this Agreement must be initiated for mediation and/or arbitration within two (2) years from its accrual date. Any claim or dispute initiated two (2) years or longer from its accrual date shall be time-barred and dismissed.
4. Exceptions to Agreement to Arbitrate: Clarify may bring a lawsuit solely for injunctive relief to stop unauthorized use or abuse of the Services or Materials, or infringement of intellectual property rights (for example, trademark, trade secret, copyright or patent rights) without first engaging in arbitration or the informal dispute-resolution process described above.

YOU MAY ONLY RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH CLARIFY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, AND MAY NOT BRING A CLAIM AS A PLAINTIFF OR A CLASS MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS AREN’T ALLOWED UNDER OUR AGREEMENT.

Notwithstanding the above, You can decline or “opt out” of the agreement to arbitrate by contacting [email protected] within 30 days of first accepting these Terms and stating that You (include your first and last name) decline this arbitration agreement.
