Last Updated: 13 August 2020

IF YOU HAVE OR THINK YOU MIGHT BE HAVING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY OR URGENT MEDICAL PROBLEM, IMMEDIATELY DIAL 911.

  1. INTRODUCTION
    • In these Terms of Use (“Terms”), Modernizing Medicine Podiatry Systems, Inc. will be referred to as “ModMed” and terms like “we”, “our”, or “us”.
    • These Terms govern your access to and use of our products and services that link to or reference these Terms (“Services”). The Services include, at the relevant time, the patient portal and all associated websites (“Sites”), including eportal.icssoftware.net. The Services also include everything provided through or as part of the Services, such as all services, software, and Content (as defined below). To be clear, the Services do not include, and ModMed does not provide, any healthcare services.
    • Please read these Terms carefully before you use the Services as they are a legal agreement between ModMed and you once they are accepted. Please also review our Privacy Statement.
    • By clicking “I accept” or other similar icon (where applicable), or otherwise by using any of the Services, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms, including the mandatory arbitration and class action waiver in section 11. If you do not agree with any portion of these Terms, then do not click “I accept” or other similar icon and do not use any Services.
    • If you are using Services on behalf of another person or an entity, then you: (i) represent and warrant that you are an authorized representative of that person or entity with the authority to bind that person or entity to these Terms and to take the actions contemplated in these Terms, where applicable, including on behalf of others (who may include your employer, employees, clients, patients, contractors, relatives, wards, or principals), and (ii) agree to be bound by these Terms on behalf of that person or entity. References to “you”, “your”, and similar terms refer to both you as an individual and, if applicable, such person or entity.
    • PLEASE

As may be described in more detail in these Terms, please note:

  • ModMed does not provide healthcare services. ModMed provides Services to help healthcare providers manage their medical practices, which includes Services that permit patients to interact with their providers. The terms for any healthcare services provided by a provider are as separately agreed upon by the provider and the patient. ModMed is neither a party to nor bound by any such terms.
  • Limitations on Liability and Claims. These Terms contain important provisions that limit our liability to you and that govern how claims that you and ModMed have against each other may be brought. These provisions will require you to submit claims you have against us to final and binding arbitration and to do so on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative action or proceeding.
  • Changes to these Terms. We may change these Terms at any time. Unless we say otherwise, changes will be effective upon the last updated date at the top of these Terms. Please check these Terms regularly to ensure that you are aware of any changes to these Terms. We may try to notify you of material changes to these Terms, such as by posting a notice directly on the Services, by sending an email notification (if you have provided your email address to us), or by other reasonable methods. In any event, your use of the Services after changes to these Terms means you have accepted the changes. If you do not agree with the changes, immediately stop using the Services.
  • Practice Terms and Conditions, Privacy Statements. As a patient, your Provider or his or her office may have required you to agree to terms and conditions, privacy statements, or other documents. Those are separate from these Terms. These Terms cover any of the Services you use, where any terms and conditions, privacy statements, or other documents your Provider or his or her office have presented you address your Provider’s provision of his or her services and his or her office’s use and handling of your data and other information.
  1. TYPES OF USERS; ACCOUNTS
    • Patients of Providers. You must be a patient of a ModMed customer (a “Provider”) to use the Services (a “Patient User”).
    • User Accounts.
      • You will have to create an account to use the Services, which will require you to provide a username and password or other information. When you create an account, you must provide us with true, accurate, and complete information and keep that information up to date.
      • You must:
        • protect your username and password;
        • not permit anyone else to use your username and password;
        • not use anyone else’s username and password;
        • not try to gain unauthorized access to any other user’s username or password;
        • notify us immediately if your password is lost or stolen or you become aware of any unauthorized use of your username or password; and
        • notify us immediately if you become aware of any unauthorized use of the Services or any other breach of security that might affect the Services.
      • You are fully responsible for any activity under your account. We are not responsible for any loss or damage arising from someone else using your username or password or your failure to comply with these Terms.
    • Children and Minors.
      • The Services are not intended for or directed to children under 18 years old.
      • If you are between the ages of 13 and 18, you may still use the Services, but you must have a parent or legal guardian provide valid and verifiable consent to your use of the Service and accept these Terms and any other terms and conditions required by ModMed. If we determine that the consent provided is invalid or inadequate, we may suspend or terminate your access to or use of the Services.
      • If you are under the age of 13, your parent or legal guardian may use the Services on your behalf, but you may not use the Service directly.
      • If you use the Services as or on behalf of a minor, then “you”, “yours”, and similar terms refer to both: (i) the parent or legal guardian who provides consent to the use of the Services by such minor or uses the Services on behalf of such minor and (ii) the applicable minor.
    • Communication Preferences. By creating an account, you also consent to receive electronic communications from ModMed (e.g., via email, text message, or by posting notices to the Services). These communications may include operational notices and updates about your account and are part of your relationship with us. You agree that any notices, agreements, disclosures, or other communications that we send to you electronically will satisfy any legal communication requirements, including that such communications be in writing. You should maintain copies of electronic communications from us by printing a paper copy, saving an electronic copy, or both.
  2. USE OF THE SERVICES
    • Patient Users. As a Patient User:
      • Providers, not ModMed, will be solely responsible for any healthcare services, including any care and treatment that is provided or failed to be provided via the Services.
      • The Services may permit you to provide information to, receive information from, and otherwise interact with a Provider. All communication through the Services is between you and the Provider, which may include messages, reports, and other information regarding your healthcare and the provider-patient relationship, including diagnosis and treatment. It is your responsibility to monitor and respond to these messages. We will not be responsible, and you will not hold us liable, for any loss, injury, or claims of any kind resulting from your failure to read or respond to these messages, your failure to comply with any treatment recommendations or instructions from your Provider, or your compliance with any treatment recommendations or instructions from your Provider. Your Provider is communicating solely with you about your own personal conditions; you are prohibited from asking for advice on behalf of another person, which could potentially be harmful.
      • Use of the Services, including access to any Content, does not create a provider-patient relationship between you and us. All Content is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for the professional judgment of a healthcare provider.
      • You agree that ModMed is not responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of any of your interactions with Providers or other entities or individuals, whether online or offline. ModMed is under no obligation to become involved in any dispute between you and any Provider, any other user of the Services, or any other entity or individual. You indemnify and release the Indemnified Parties (as defined below) from any and all claims, actions, suits, liabilities, demands, losses, and damages (actual or consequential) of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes or the Service or the features and services in the Services. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, and that if known by him or her would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”
    • You will:
      • Use the Services only as expressly authorized in these Terms;
      • Use the Services only in accordance with all applicable laws;
      • Exercise caution, discretion, common sense, and judgment in using the Services and when disclosing information on or through the Services. You are solely responsible for your use of the Services;

      • Not interfere in any way with the operation of the Services or any server, network, or system associated with the Services, including by: hacking, mail-bombing, flooding, overloading, or making “denial of service” attacks; probing, scanning, or testing the vulnerability of the Services or any server, network, or system associated with the Services; breaching or circumventing firewall, encryption, security, or authentication routines; accessing data not intended for you; or accessing another’s account that you are not expressly authorized to access;
      • Not use any automated program, tool, or process (including web crawlers, scrapers, robots, bots, spiders, and automated scripts) to access the Services or any server, network, or system associated with the Services, or to extract, collect, harvest, or gather Content or other users’ Submissions (as defined below) from the Services in a manner not expressly authorized by us;
      • Not frame or otherwise create a browser or border environment around any page or Content of the Services or deep-link to any internal page or area of the Services; and

    • User Submissions.
      • The Services may permit you to submit, upload, post, or transmit messages, text, photos, and other materials on or through the Services (“Submissions”).

You are not entitled to payment for ModMed’s or its affiliates’ or licensees’ use of your Submissions.
      • You are solely responsible for your Submissions. By posting a Submission, you represent and warrant that:
        • You own or otherwise control all of the rights to your Submission, including all intellectual property, moral, and personal rights, and have all rights necessary to grant the rights and licenses in these Terms;
        • Your Submission is true and accurate; and
        • Your Submission complies with these Terms and applicable laws.
      • You acknowledge and agree that ModMed has the right to (but does not have to) alter, remove, or refuse to post or allow to be posted any Submission. ModMed takes no responsibility and assumes no liability for any Submission (whether from you or another user) or for altering, removing, or refusing to post your Submission.
    • Technology Requirements. You are solely responsible for providing and maintaining, at your own risk, option, and expense, appropriate software, hardware, and other technology needed for you to receive and use the Services, which must comply with any technical, quality, or other requirements we publish or otherwise make available. We may change these requirements at any time upon publication or other notice, with or without prior notice. You acknowledge that ModMed is not responsible for the safeguarding, loss, or recovery of any data stored on your hardware.

ModMed is not responsible for and makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding any Third-Party Services. You access and use Third-Party Services solely at your own risk. Third-Party Services may be subject to other terms and conditions and privacy policies (collectively, “Third-Party Services Terms”). You will look solely to, and must bring any rights, claims, or actions you may have related to a Third-Party Service directly against, the provider of that Third-Party Service.

  1. NO WARRANTIES

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MODMED MAKES NO AND DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICES, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND TITLE AND ALL WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, COURSE OF DEALING, OR USAGE IN TRADE. MODMED DOES NOT WARRANT: (i) THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR FREE; (ii) THAT ANY DEFECT OR ERROR WILL BE CORRECTED; (iii) THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE SECURE AND FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS; (iv) THAT ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL BE CURRENT OR ACCURATE; (v) AGAINST ANY LOSS OR CORRUPTION OF ANY DATA OR SUBMISSIONS; OR (vi) THAT A PARTICULAR PRODUCT, SERVICE, OR PROVIDER IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES WILL BE AVAILABLE TO YOU. ANY CONTENT OR INFORMATION PROVIDED BY OR THROUGH THE SERVICES IS INTENDED AS A SUPPLEMENT TO, AND NOT A SUBSTITUTE FOR, THE KNOWLEDGE, SKILL, AND JUDGMENT OF HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS. YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS ENTIRELY AT YOUR OWN RISK. MODMED DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ANY DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, RESULTING FROM YOUR USE OF OR RELIANCE ON ANY INFORMATION PROVIDED BY THE SERVICES.

  1. LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY
    • IN NO EVENT WILL MODMED OR OUR AFFILIATES OR ANY OF OUR OR OUR AFFILIATES’ RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, REPRESENTATIVES, ADVISORS, CONTRACTORS, OR CONSULTANTS BE LIABLE TO YOU (WHETHER UNDER CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY, WARRANTY, OR ANY OTHER THEORY) FOR: (i) ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF USE, DATA, OR INFORMATION OF ANY KIND) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH LOSS OR DAMAGES OR (ii) DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS EXCEEDING, IN THE AGGREGATE FOR ALL CLAIMS, $100.
    • EACH PROVISION OF THESE TERMS THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THESE TERMS. THE LIMITATIONS IN THESE TERMS WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.
    • EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MODMED’S LIABILITY TO YOU IS LIMITED AS SET FORTH IN THIS SECTION 9. BECAUSE SOME STATES DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR OTHER DAMAGES OR TOTAL LIABILITY, THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.
  2. USER INDEMNITY

In addition to any indemnification obligations you may have, you will indemnify ModMed and our affiliates and our and our Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives, advisors, contractors, and consultants (collectively, “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all claims, actions, suits, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, penalties, interest, fines, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and legal costs) arising out of or related to: (i) your use of, your inability to use, or your reliance upon the Services or any of its components or any other products or services of ModMed or our affiliates; (ii) your Submissions and Feedback; or (iii) your violation of these Terms or any applicable law. You agree to provide us with such cooperation as we reasonably request related to any such claims, actions, suits, or demands.

  1. LIMITATIONS ON CLAIMS; AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE
    • Disputes Subject to Arbitration. Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate Disputes with ModMed and our affiliates and our and our Affiliates’ respective owners, stockholders, officers, directors, employees, representatives, and agents (collectively, the “ModMed Parties”) and limits the manner in which you may seek relief from the ModMed Parties, including a class action waiver. This section 11 applies to all Disputes (unless excluded under section 3) between you and the ModMed Parties. “Dispute” means disputes, claims, suits, actions, causes of action, controversies, demands, or proceedings arising out of or related to these Terms or the Services in any way, whether directly or indirectly, or to the relationship between the parties resulting from these Terms or the Services.
    • Waiver of Jury Trial and Right to Pursue Class Action Claims. By entering into these Terms, the parties are each waiving the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class or representative action. These Terms evidence a transaction in interstate commerce, and thus the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this arbitration provision.
    • This arbitration agreement does not preclude any party from seeking a preliminary injunction or temporary restraining order, pending arbitration, in any court that has competent jurisdiction. Nor does this arbitration agreement bar a party from bringing issues to the attention of federal, state, or local agencies.
    • Notice of Disputes. The parties will try in good faith to settle any Dispute within 30 days after the Dispute arises. If either you or ModMed intends to seek arbitration of a Dispute, then that party must provide the other with notice in writing. The notice to ModMed should be sent to the following address: Modernizing Medicine, Attn: General Counsel, 4850 T-Rex Avenue, Suite 200, Boca Raton, Florida 33431. ModMed will send notice to you at the mailing address or email address associated with your account, if applicable. Your notice to ModMed must: (i) provide your name, mailing address, and email address; (ii) describe the Dispute; and (iii) set forth the relief you are requesting. If the parties are unable to reach an agreement to resolve the Dispute within 60 days after the notice is received, the party that sent the notice may commence arbitration.
    • No Class Arbitration. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim. You and ModMed agree that each may bring claims against the other in arbitration only in its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this section’s limitations as to a particular cause of action or any particular remedy, then that cause of action or particular remedy (and only that cause of action or particular remedy) must remain in court and be severed from any arbitration.
    • Arbitration Procedures. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) and governed by the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (“AAA Rules”), as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules are available online at adr.org. If the AAA is unavailable, the parties will agree to another arbitration provider or a court of competent jurisdiction will appoint a substitute.
      1. Location of Arbitration. Unless the parties agree otherwise, any arbitration hearings will take place in the county (or parish) of your principal place of business or residence, as applicable.
      2. Issues for Arbitrator. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of any of this arbitration agreement or the arbitrability of Disputes are for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide.
  • Written Decision. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based.
  • Costs of Arbitration. The parties will pay the arbitrator’s fees, the arbitrator’s appointed experts’ fees and expenses, and the AAA filing, administrative, and hearing fees in accordance with the AAA Rules. If you complied with the notice requirements of section 4 and the value of your claims is: (i) $75,000 or less, ModMed will pay your share of any such AAA fees; (ii) between $75,000 and $300,000, your share of any such fees will be capped at $200; and (iii) $300,000 or more, the allocation of AAA fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. If an arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all AAA fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In such cases, the arbitrator may direct you to reimburse ModMed for amounts that ModMed paid on your behalf.
  • Limitation on Time to Bring an Action. You agree that regardless of any law to the contrary, you must file any Dispute within 1 year after such Dispute arose or such Dispute will be forever barred.
  • Judgment on the award may be enforced by any court having jurisdiction over the award, the applicable party, or its assets.
  1. MISCELLANEOUS
    • ModMed may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to these Terms, by postings on the Sites or in the other Services or by other means (e.g., via email).
    • Governing Law; Venue. These Terms and any Dispute between you and ModMed arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to any provision of Florida law that would require or permit the application of the substantive law of another jurisdiction. Any Dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court, will be resolved on an individual basis in the state or federal courts of the State of Florida and the United States, respectively, sitting in Palm Beach County, Florida. If you are a United States city, county, or state government entity, then the following applies instead of the language above: the parties agree to remain silent regarding governing law and venue.
    • A waiver of a provision of these Terms must be in writing and signed by the party entitled to the benefit of such provision. ModMed’s failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
    • If any provision of these Terms is declared void or unenforceable by any judicial or administrative authority, the parties will replace such provision with a substitute that as closely as possible reflects the parties’ original intent (including economics and allocations of risk) and is enforceable, and the validity of the other provisions and of these Terms as a whole will not be affected.
    • Independent Contractor. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you and ModMed as a result of these Terms or use of the Services.
    • Headings used in these Terms are for convenience only and will not be used in interpreting these Terms. These Terms will be deemed to be drafted by both parties and will not be construed against either party. Unless the context otherwise requires, the term “include” (and its variants) are to be construed as inclusive, not exclusive, and are deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.”
    • Force Majeure. ModMed will not be liable for failure or delay in performing its obligations if such failure or delay is due to a force majeure event or other circumstances beyond ModMed’s reasonable control, including acts of any governmental body, pandemic, war, cyber war or attack, terrorism, insurrection, sabotage, embargo, fire, flood, severe weather, earthquake, tornado, hurricane, labor disturbance, interruption of or delay in the internet or transportation, unavailability of third-party services, failure of third-party software or services, or inability to obtain raw materials, supplies, or power used in or equipment needed for provision of the Services or any other products or services contemplated by these Terms.

To be clear, nothing in these Terms is to be construed to restrict or prohibit you or anyone else from disclosing to any person information relating to the performance of the Services, including for patient safety, public health, or quality improvement purposes, or any other purpose for which a restriction or prohibition on your disclosure would constitute a violation of applicable law.
