THE FOREGOING DOES NOT AFFECT ANY LIABILITY WHICH CANNOT BE EXCLUDED OR LIMITED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.

(b) Non-Affiliated Medical Services.  FreeState Healthcare acts solely as a technology platform with respect to Non-Affiliated Medical Services and is not a party to the clinical relationship between any patient and a Non-Affiliated Provider. FreeState Healthcare bears no responsibility for, and shall have no liability arising out of or related to, any clinical decisions made by Medical Professionals associated with Non-Affiliated Providers, including but not limited to diagnosis, treatment planning, prescribing, referral, or any other act or omission in the delivery of Non-Affiliated Medical Services, regardless of whether such services were facilitated through the App.

(c) No Medical Advice.  The App does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment with respect to Non-Affiliated Medical Services. Nothing in the App or these Terms should be construed as the provision of medical advice by FreeState Healthcare in connection with Non-Affiliated Medical Services. Patients receiving Non-Affiliated Medical Services through the App should not rely on any feature or output of the App as a substitute for the professional medical judgment of their treating Non-Affiliated Provider.

(d) Provider Credentials.  FreeState Healthcare makes no representation or warranty regarding the qualifications, licensure, competence, or conduct of any Non-Affiliated Provider or Medical Professional associated with a Non-Affiliated Provider. Verification of provider credentials and compliance with applicable licensure requirements is the sole responsibility of the Non-Affiliated Provider.

For modifications that materially affect your rights or obligations under these Terms, including changes to data handling, liability, or dispute resolution provisions, we will require your affirmative consent before the modified Terms take effect with respect to you. Your continued use of the App following the effective date of any modification      constitutes your acceptance of these Terms, as amended.

FreeState Healthcare may also terminate these Terms and the license granted hereunder at any time and for any reason upon thirty (30) days' written notice to you.

18.              Additional Terms for Patients.  The provisions of this Section 18 apply to you only if you are a Patient.

(a)               Updates, Modifications, and Termination of the App.  There is no guarantee that we will continue to offer the App, and we may at any time and for any reason modify, discontinue, suspend, or restrict any aspect or feature of the App or the entire App. FreeState Healthcare reserves the right to modify, change, add to, or remove any part of the App at any time in its sole discretion.  FreeState Healthcare may from time to time in its sole discretion, develop and provide updates to the App, which may include upgrades, bug fixes, patches, and other error corrections and/or new features.  You agree that      FreeState Healthcare has no obligation to provide any such update     s or to continue to provide or enable any particular features or functionality.

(b)               Additional Terms and Agreements.  The Medical Provider Organization(s) that provide medical services to you through the App may require you to agree to additional terms.  For example, we or they may require you to agree to a Consent to Treatment, Notice of Privacy Practices for Protected Health Information, Liability Waiver, Assignment of Benefits, Authorization to Release Medical Information, privacy policy, or other terms, policies, and/or agreements.  You understand and agree that, if you procure, schedule, pay for, or receive medical services from a Non-Affiliated Provider, you are agreeing to be bound by terms, policies, and agreements with such Non-Affiliated Provider, and not with FreeState Healthcare, and any rights you have under those terms, policies, and agreements must be enforced against the Non-Affiliated Provider, not against FreeState Healthcare.  FreeState Healthcare shall have no liability or obligations to you under the terms, policies, or agreements of Non-Affiliated Providers.

(c)               No Responsibility for Non-Affiliated Medical Services.  FreeState Healthcare is not responsible for, and shall have no liability to you related to, Non-Affiliated Medical Services.  If you have any problems with Non-Affiliated Medical Services you receive through the App, you must seek recourse from the applicable Non-Affiliated Provider, and not from FreeState Healthcare.

(e)                Disclaimer of Warranties. THE APP IS PROVIDED TO YOU “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” AND WITH ALL FAULTS AND DEFECTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OR GUARANTEE OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, FREESTATE HEALTHCARE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE WITH RESPECT TO THE APP AND ANY NON-AFFILIATED MEDICAL SERVICES, INCLUDING ALL IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, SUITABILITY, TIMELINESS, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, RELEVANCE, SATISFACTORY QUALITY, RELIABILITY, SECURITY, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND WARRANTIES THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE, USAGE. OR TRADE PRACTICE. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, FREESTATE HEALTHCARE MAKES NO WARRANTY OR UNDERTAKING, AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND THAT THE APP OR NON-AFFILIATED MEDICAL SERVICES WILL MEET YOUR REQUIREMENTS; ACHIEVE ANY INTENDED RESULTS; BE COMPATIBLE OR WORK WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE, SYSTEMS, OR SERVICES; OPERATE WITHOUT INTERRUPTION; MEET ANY PERFORMANCE OR RELIABILITY STANDARDS; OR BE ERROR-FREE OR THAT ANY ERRORS OR DEFECTS CAN OR WILL BE CORRECTED; OR BE FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS. FREESTATE HEALTHCARE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE ARISING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY FROM THE APP OR ANY NON-AFFILIATED MEDICAL SERVICES, OR THE INTERCEPTION OR LOSS OF ANY DATA OR COMMUNICATIONS TRANSMITTED TO OR FROM THE APP.  SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OF OR LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE LIMITATIONS ON APPLICABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS OF A CONSUMER, SO SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE EXCLUSIONS AND LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU.

THE DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE A MATERIAL PART OF OUR AGREEMENT.

If you are dissatisfied with any portion of our App, or with any provision of this Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy is to discontinue use of the App.

19.              Additional Terms for Non-Affiliated Medical Professionals.   The terms of this Section 19 apply to you only if you are a Medical Professional associated with a Non-Affiliated Provider. 

YOU ARE PROVIDED THE APP PURSUANT TO THE MASTER AGREEMENT BETWEEN FREESTATE HEALTHCARE AND THE NON-AFFILIATED PROVIDER YOU ARE ASSOCIATED WITH, SOLELY FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE NON-AFFILIATED PROVIDER AND AT THE NON-AFFILIATED PROVIDER'S DISCRETION. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE NO RIGHTS UNDER THE MASTER AGREEMENT INCLUDING ANY RIGHTS TO ENFORCE ANY OF ITS TERMS. ANY OBLIGATION OR LIABILITY THAT FREESTATE HEALTHCARE OR ITS AFFILIATES, OR ANY OF ITS OR THEIR LICENSORS OR SERVICE PROVIDERS, MAY HAVE WITH RESPECT TO YOUR USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE APP SHALL BE SOLELY TO THE NON-AFFILIATED PROVIDER PURSUANT TO THE MASTER AGREEMENT AND SUBJECT TO ALL LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH THEREIN.

Non-Affiliated Providers are also required to enter into a Business Associate Agreement with FreeState Healthcare governing the handling of protected health information in connection with services delivered through the App.

In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the Master Agreement and these Terms, the terms of the Master Agreement shall control.

20.              Equitable Remedies.  You agree and acknowledge that breach of this Agreement by you may cause immediate and irreparable harm, for which monetary damages would be inadequate or difficult to ascertain.  You therefore agree that upon the existence of any such breach or threatened breach, FreeState Healthcare may immediately seek a temporary restraining order or other appropriate form of equitable relief, without posting a bond or other form of security, from any court having jurisdiction over the matter.  This paragraph will not limit FreeState Healthcare’s rights to obtain monetary damages in addition to or as substitution for such equitable relief.

22.              Governing Law.  These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Kansas without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule (whether of the State of Kansas      or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State of Kansas.

23.              Dispute Resolution. Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the App, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be determined by binding arbitration before a single arbitrator in Wichita, Kansas, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. YOU AND FREESTATE HEALTHCARE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING.

24.              Waiver.  The waiver of any breach of or a default under any provision of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach of or default under the same or any other provision of this Agreement, nor shall any delay or omission on the part of either party to exercise or avail itself of any right or remedy that it has or may have hereunder, operate as a waiver of any right or remedy.

25.              Severability.  If any term, provision or covenant or condition of these Terms is held invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
