I agree that my usage will be in compliance and in accordance with HIPAA, HITECH, and all other applicable privacy laws.

I understand that DrFirst reserves the right to modify or discontinue Fuzion with or without notice. DrFirst will not be liable to me or any third party should it exercise its right to modify or discontinue Fuzion. If I object to any such changes, my sole recourse will be to terminate these Terms. Continued use of Fuzion following notice of any such changes will indicate my acknowledgement of such changes and satisfaction with Fuzion as so modified.

I agree to obtain any required patient consents prior to requesting any medication history for that patient. I acknowledge that Fuzion shall be used only for those patients from whom I have obtained the required consents of the patient to access such patient’s medication history.

I understand that DrFirst may change these Terms from time to time. If I object to any such changes, my sole recourse will be to terminate these Terms. Continued use of Fuzion following notice of any such changes will indicate my acknowledgement of such changes and agreement to be bound by the revised Terms, inclusive of such changes.

DrFirst provides Fuzion as a tool for licensed medical professionals to review patient medication history information. I am responsible for verifying the information that I input into the system or the information returned as part of the medication history information. I agree to confirm the prescription benefit and medication history information with my patient(s) prior to providing medical services based on that information and I agree to use my professional judgment in the provision of such care. Fuzion is not a substitute for my standard practice or professional judgment, and any decision with regard to the appropriateness of treatment, the validity or reliability of information is my sole responsibility. I FURTHER WARRANT THAT ALL TREATMENT DECISIONS ARE BASED ENTIRELY UPON MY PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL JUDGMENTS, MY EMPLOYEES AND AGENTS, AND OTHER PROFESSIONALS WITH PRIVILEGES TO PROVIDE HEALTH CARE ITEMS AND SERVICES TO MY PATIENTS.

I UNDERSTAND THAT FUZION AND ALL INFORMATION, CONTENT, MATERIALS, AND SERVICES RELATED TO THE FOREGOING ARE PROVIDED “AS IS.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, DRFIRST AND ITS AFFILIATES DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, NON-INTERFERENCE, SYSTEM INTEGRATION, AND ACCURACY OF DATA. APPLICABLE LAW MAY NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF CERTAIN IMPLIED WARRANTIES, SO THE ABOVE EXCLUSION MAY NOT APPLY TO ME. DRFIRST AND ITS AFFILIATES DO NOT WARRANT THAT USE OF FUZION BY REGISTERED AUTHORIZED END USERS WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE OR VIRUS FREE. THE SUBMISSION OF ANY INFORMATION THROUGH FUZION IS DONE AT MY OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND I WILL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO MY COMPUTER SYSTEM OR LOSS OF DATA THAT MAY RESULT FROM SUCH ACTIVITIES OR FROM RELIANCE UPON FUZION. DRFIRST IS NOT THE PROVIDER OF, AND MAKES NO WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO, ALL THIRD-PARTY SOFTWARE AND THIRD-PARTY OFFERINGS. ALTHOUGH INFORMATION THAT I SUBMIT MAY BE PASSWORD PROTECTED, DRFIRST DOES NOT GUARANTEE THE SECURITY OF ANY INFORMATION TRANSMITTED TO OR FROM FUZION, EXCEPT AS MAY BE SET FORTH IN A BUSINESS ASSOCIATE AGREEMENT BETWEEN DRFIRST AND SUBSCRIBER; AND I AGREE TO ASSUME THE SECURITY RISK FOR ANY INFORMATION I PROVIDE USING FUZION.

MY USE OF FUZION IS AT MY OWN RISK. I UNDERSTAND THAT IN NO EVENT SHALL DRFIRST OR ITS AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR SPECIAL DAMAGES, OR FOR LOSS OF PROFITS OR DAMAGES ARISING DUE TO BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR FROM LOSS OR INACCURACY OF INFORMATION, TO THE EXTENT ANY OF THE FOREGOING ARISES IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR MY USE OR INABILITY TO USE FUZION, WHETHER OR NOT SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE AND EVEN IF DRFIRST WAS ADVISED THAT SUCH DAMAGES WERE LIKELY OR POSSIBLE. IN NO EVENT WILL THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF DRFIRST TO ME FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS, EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID TO DRFIRST BY ME DURING THE PRECEDING 12-MONTH PERIOD. I ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY IS AN ESSENTIAL TERM BETWEEN ME AND DRFIRST RELATING TO THE PROVISION OF FUZION TO ME, AND DRFIRST WOULD NOT PROVIDE FUZION TO ME WITHOUT THIS LIMITATION.

I AGREE TO INDEMNIFY, HOLD HARMLESS AND, AT DRFIRST’S OPTION, DEFEND DRFIRST (INCLUDING ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, LICENSORS, SUPPLIERS AND ANY THIRD-PARTY INFORMATION PROVIDERS TO THE SITE OR SERVICE) FROM AND AGAINST ALL LOSSES, EXPENSES, DAMAGES, COSTS AND LIABILITIES, INCLUDING REASONABLE ATTORNEYS’ FEES, RESULTING FROM ANY VIOLATION OF THESE TERMS OR ANY ACTIVITY RELATED TO MY ACCOUNT (INCLUDING ANY NEGLIGENT OR WRONGFUL CONDUCT) BY ME OR ANY OTHER PERSON ACCESSING FUZION USING MY ACCOUNT.

These Terms will be subject to and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, excluding conflict of law principles. I consent to jurisdiction and venue exclusively in the State of Maryland. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between me and DrFirst with regard to the matters described herein and govern my use of Fuzion, superseding any prior agreements between me and DrFirst with respect thereto. The failure of DrFirst to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms shall remain in full force and effect. I agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of or related to use of Fuzion or the Terms must be filed within one (1) year after such claim or cause of action arose or be forever barred.

In the event of a conflict between these Terms and the underlying agreement the entity on your behalf has entered into with us, the terms of the underlying agreement shall control.
