We do that by directly connecting consumers with high-quality care, transparent information, and trusted guidance on their terms – in as little as 60 seconds, 24/7, from the palm of their hand.

In order to make the Transcarent health and care experience (like our live health guides and access to high quality services) available to you, Transcarent operates mobile applications, digital tools, other solution services, and related websites (including our website at transcarent.com or one or more successor websites) (the “Site”)) (collectively, the “Service”).

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) set forth the terms and conditions under which we provide the Service and are a legally binding contract between you and Transcarent regarding your use of the Service However, because Transcarent provides the Service to you on behalf of your group health or welfare plan, the terms of your plan’s service benefit brochure will control in the event of any conflict with these Terms related to your plan benefits. Please see our Privacy Notice for more details.

It is important to note that “Service” as defined above and used throughout this document does not include any of the clinical or medical health and care services you may access through our solution, which may include Healthcare Services (as defined below) you receive from Transcarent’s affiliated medical group and/or other healthcare you receive from a third party health care facility, practitioner, professional, or specialist using or accessible through the Service (“Care Providers”). These services are provided by independent health care practitioners. Transcarent itself is not a licensed medical professional; we provide access to the Service along with transparent information and trusted guidance to empower you to effectively navigate these services.

If you are a parent or legal guardian of a user under the age of 18 (or the age of legal majority), you agree to be fully responsible for the acts or omissions of such user in relation to the Service. Additionally, there are circumstances in which certain adult users of the Service may be eligible to use the Service to seek medical care for or on behalf of a Minor (as defined below). The terms and conditions governing the use of the Service by an adult to seek medical care for or on behalf of a Minor are set forth in Section 7 below concerning pediatric medical care. For purposes of this Agreement and all uses of the Service and, a “Minor” is a person that is under 18 years of age (or the age of legal majority where the Minor lives). A Minor may use the Service only under the circumstances described in Section 3 below concerning pediatric medical care sought by an adult user of the Service. Transcarent reserves the right to request proof of age at any point so that it can verify that Minors are not using the Service without supervision by an authorized adult. If Transcarent believes that a Minor is using the Service without adult supervision, it may block the Minor from using the Service.

If applicable, the aforementioned requirements will also govern your receipt of Healthcare Services from the Care Providers. If you are not eligible, or do not agree to the Terms, PLEASE DO NOT ACCESS, BROWSE, OR USE THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES.

2. Your Relationship with Transcarent

Your Relationship with Transcarent. Transcarent works on behalf of your health plan to provide an experience through which we enable you to better understand your health and care options, consult with health care practitioners and obtain access to additional information, facilitate your use of the health and care systems available to you, and support you as you make your health and care decisions. The health and wellness resources made available through our Service are for informational purposes only and are not a substitute for direct health care services. You are responsible for confirming the accuracy of information you access via the Service, and we encourage you to speak with qualified health care professionals before deciding on any course of action. The decision to focus on diagnosis, treatment recommendations, or both rests with you and your health care practitioner. You understand that by coordinating and in certain cases consulting with a health care practitioner through the Service, you are not entering into a doctor-patient relationship with Transcarent.

No Emergency Services. The Service should not be used during a medical emergency. If you have a medical emergency, call 911 or proceed to your nearest Emergency Room immediately. The Service is not intended to support or carry messages to any emergency services, including any such emergency services that may otherwise accept instant messages. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to ensure that you have an alternate means to send and receive emergency messages and to contact emergency services. You should not delay seeking professional medical care if your symptoms or condition worsens, or if you need immediate medical attention. Notwithstanding, if a Transcarent representative reasonably suspects that you may be experiencing a health emergency, or may be a danger to yourself or another person, Transcarent reserves the right, and you expressly agree, that Transcarent may contact the appropriate emergency services, including calling 911, contacting child protection services, a suicide hotline, or other appropriate service.

No Practice of Medicine; No Licensed Services. Transcarent does not practice medicine or any other licensed profession. Transcarent’s services enable coordination with health care practitioners, and in certain circumstances, direct communication with health care practitioners, but Transcarent’s services do not replace any relationship with any health care practitioner or service, and Transcarent itself does not directly or indirectly provide medical or health advice, care, diagnosis, or treatment. All health care practitioners you are connected to through Transcarent, including those from the Care Providers practice independently of Transcarent. Each health care practitioner is responsible for their professional service and compliance with the requirements applicable to their profession and license. You hereby agree and acknowledge that Transcarent is in no way acting as a medical provider with respect to any person. You further acknowledge and agree that the treatments, procedures, workflow, information, medications, processes, products, and other items referenced by Transcarent or the service are not intended as a recommendation or endorsement of any course of treatment, procedure, information, product, health care practitioner, or medication and that the ultimate responsibility for diagnosing and treatment of any patient using the service rests with the health care practitioners treating such patient.

No Insurance, Indemnity, Payment, Guaranty or Underwriting of Health Care Benefits. You hereby agree and acknowledge that Transcarent is in no way acting as an insurer, indemnitor, payor, designer, guarantor or underwriter of health care benefits. Transcarent does not collect revenue through premium payments, does not process claims or appeals, and does not pay provider claims using collected premiums. Transcarent is not an insurer or third-party administrator. Transcarent is not responsible for determining whether any service is covered under any plan, or for making eligibility or coverage determinations with respect to any customer, member or plan. Compliance with the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 is the sole responsibility of the customer (including compliance with Section 406(a) thereof). Transcarent does not exercise discretion or control over and does not represent any customer or plan, or either of their respective assets, policies, payments, interpretations, practices or procedures.

No Maintenance of Medical Records. You agree not to submit medical records to Transcarent for management, storage, or sharing purposes. Transcarent does not maintain medical records on your behalf as its primary business function, although we may receive medical records as permitted by law to allow us to facilitate access to health care services. You agree and acknowledge that medical records are to be maintained by the Care Providers and, in some circumstances, by you or your health care agent.

No Control Over Practitioners. Transcarent is designed to be a single source of health and care information to maximize the benefits you receive from your health plan. However, we do not control or operate any Care Providers. Any opinions, advice, or information expressed by a health care facility, practitioner, professional, or specialist using or accessible through the Service are those of the facility, practitioner, professional, or specialist alone. Transcarent does not recommend or endorse any specific tests, products, procedures, medications, devices, or opinions that are made available to you through the Service. You agree that the opinions expressed by any health care practitioner you access through the service are not those of Transcarent and will not be used in any legal dispute against Transcarent, including but not limited to litigation, arbitration, claim for disability benefits, claim for worker’s compensation, and/or malpractice claims.

No Representations or Warranties Regarding Providers. The inclusion of health care practitioners in the Service or in any professional directory located in the Service is based on information you, such practitioners, your employer, and others provide to Transcarent, and is not intended as a tool for verifying the credentials, qualifications, or abilities of any health care practitioner contained therein. Transcarent uses proprietary data and data from trusted third-party sources in an effort to provide you with accurate and up-to-date information to assist you in making your health and care decisions. However, SUCH INFORMATION IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS-IS” “WHERE IS” AND “WITH ALL FAULTS” BASIS, AND TRANSCARENT DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR PARTICULAR PURPOSE. Transcarent does not make any representations or warranties about the training or skill of any health care providers who provide services via the Services, and you are ultimately responsible for choosing your particular health care provider in every instance. Transcarent shall in no event be liable to you or to anyone for any decision made or action taken by any party in reliance on information about health care practitioners obtained through the Service. Your reliance on any information provided through the Service is solely at your own risk. The Service may not be used by any entity or individual to verify the credentials of health care practitioners. Please note that there may be other healthcare providers who meet your search criteria but are not available through Transcarent. Please note: Transcarent (1) does not employ, refer, recommend, or endorse any healthcare providers, (b) is not responsible for ensuring that information (including credentials) a healthcare provider provides about themself is accurate or up-to-date, (c) is not responsible for making sure that healthcare providers’ services are actually provided or are up to a certain standard of quality, and (d) does not receive additional fees from healthcare provider for featuring them through the Services. Transcarent does not control the actions of any healthcare providers. To the extent that you use the Services as provided by your employer, Transcarent may provide lists and/or profile previews based also on criteria determined by your employer and your employer’s agents or advisors.

Non-Discrimination. You acknowledge and agree that the Service and any incentives you may become eligible to receive in connection therewith from time to time are intended to provide value-based incentives as part of a value-based insurance design program, and in no event will you be eligible to receive any of such services or incentives in a manner inconsistent with HIPAA’s prohibition against discrimination based on a health factor.

No Duty to Monitor Communications. By accepting these Terms, you understand that your health care practitioner may send you messages, reports, and emails via the Service regarding the treatment of your condition or in response to your inquiry. We do not and are not responsible for monitoring these messages, reports, and emails for you. You agree that you will not hold us liable for any loss, injury, or claims of any kind resulting from your failure to read these messages or for your failure to comply with any treatment recommendations contained in messages from your health care practitioner.

Risks of Telehealth and Other Consultative Services. If the Care Providers or your independent health care practitioner uses the Service to provide advice or treatment to you, they may not have the benefit of information that would be obtained by examining you in person and/or observing your physical condition. Therefore, your health care practitioner may not be aware of facts or information that would affect their opinion of your diagnosis or treatment. We encourage you to discuss these limitations with your health care practitioner if you have concerns. By deciding to engage the Service and Healthcare Services, you acknowledge and agree that you are aware and agree to assume the risk of these limitations. Furthermore, you agree and accept that: (i) any diagnosis you may receive from your health care practitioner through the Service is limited and, in some cases, provisional; (ii) any opinions you may receive from your health care practitioner through the Service are not intended to replace a full medical evaluation or an in-person visit with your health care practitioner; (iii) a health care practitioner acting through the Service may not have important information that is usually obtained through an in-person physical examination; and (iv) the absence of an in-person physical examination may affect the health care practitioner’s ability to diagnose your condition, disease or injury through the Service. Other potential risks associated with the use of virtual encounters for advice and treatment include, without limitation, the following:

  • Delays in medical evaluation and consultation or treatment due to deficiencies or failures of the equipment or internet connection;

  • Failure of security protocols that may lead to a breach of privacy of protected health information; and

  • Lack of access to information resulting in adverse health outcomes.

Accounts and Registration. To access most features of the Service and Healthcare Services, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you will be required to provide us with information about yourself, so that we can verify your identity. If you are a parent or guardian with children who are covered by your health plan and want your children to participate in the Service or Healthcare Services, you will need to register them, and after doing so, may be able to access certain limited aspects of the Service on behalf of your child. You agree to provide us with accurate information when you register for an account and to keep your information accurate and up to date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to create a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. If you believe that your account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at security@transcarent.com.

If there is a dispute between participants on the Service, or between users and any third party, you understand and agree that Transcarent is under no obligation to become involved or in any way assist in the resolution of such dispute. In the event that you have a dispute with one or more other users, you hereby release Transcarent, its officers, employees, agents, and successors in interest from claims, demand, 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 therein. If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code Section 1542, which states: “A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which, if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor.” Regardless of whether you are a California resident, you waive any claims based on statutes, common law principles, or other applicable laws similar to the substance of California Civil Code Section 1542.

8. Information Submitted via the Service (User Content)

With the exception of any personally identifiable information (as defined under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996, Public Law 104-191, and its related regulations and amendments from time to time (collectively, “HIPAA”) or related state-specific privacy laws and regulations) or protected health information (as defined under HIPAA or related state-specific privacy laws and regulations) you submit maintained in accordance with our Privacy Policy, any information (including input and suggestions regarding the Services or Healthcare Services you transmit to Transcarent via the Service, whether by direct entry, submission, email, or otherwise, including data, questions, comments, forum communications, or suggestions), will be treated as non-confidential and non-proprietary and will become the property of Transcarent. Such information may be used for any purpose to the extent allowed by your plan, which may (depending on your plan) include, without limitation, reproduction, solicitations, disclosure, transmission, publication, broadcast, and posting. Transcarent shall be free to use any ideas, concepts, know-how, or techniques contained in any communication you send to Transcarent via the Service or by any other means for any purpose whatsoever, to the extent allowed by your plan, which may (depending on your plan) include, without limitation, developing and marketing products using such information.

For quality assurance and training purposes, Transcarent may monitor interactions between you and individuals that you interact with using the Services and may record telephone calls, video calls, and other similar interactions, provided that you have been given appropriate notice.

9. Communications

With Transcarent Care Team, Care Providers, or Third-Party Practitioners. You may use the Service to connect with Transcarent, Care Providers and/or independent health care practitioners. You may initiate these connections using the Service and to the extent allowed by your plan, as described below. You may disconnect from a communication with Transcarent, Care Providers, or an independent health care practitioner, their company, or any other person via the Service. Disconnecting from a communication with Transcarent, Care Provider, or an independent health care practitioner, their company, or any other person rescinds your consent for such health care practitioner, company, or other person to contact you via the Service but does not rescind any other permissions you have given the practitioner or company to contact you via other means.

Text Message Outreach Program. We may send you SMS/text messages (“text messages”) when you give prior express consent to get text messages at activation, in your notification settings, or in other communications with us. We will send text messages to you at the phone number you used when you activated your account or in your profile.

You verify that any phone information provided to Transcarent is true and accurate, and that you are the current subscriber or owner of any telephone number that you provide. You acknowledge that by voluntarily providing your telephone number, and opting-in to SMS Messages, you agree to receive text messages from us. You acknowledge that text messages may be made to your telephone number even if it is registered on any state or federal Do Not Call list. These messages may include (but are not limited to):

  • Operational messages about your use of the Service,

  • General communications from Transcarent including but not limited to notifications regarding upcoming or scheduled appointments, messages from your Health Guide or Care Coordinator, prescription notifications or coupons, or reminders

  • Information about health plan benefits available to you through Transcarent as well as, if allowed by your plan, marketing messages.

If you no longer want text messages, you must reply “STOP” or “END” in reply to such messages. You and Transcarent both agree that the only way to end text messages is to reply STOP or END. You understand and approve that replying STOP or END will opt you out of all text messages unless you let us know that you wish to continue receiving text messages for a particular Service. You may customize additional notification preferences within the Transcarent mobile and/or desktop applications and, if applicable, your device settings. You may receive text messages confirming the receipt of your opt-out request. After this, you will no longer get text messages from us. If you want to join again, you can sign-up by navigating to the Notifications settings in our mobile application. Text messages may be sent using an automatic telephone dialing system.

Acknowledging that modifications to notification preferences will change the way that you engage with Transcarent, your agreement to receive text messages is not a condition of any purchase or use of the Service.

Message and data rates may apply whenever you send or receive such messages, as specified by your carrier. Text messaging may not be available from carriers. If you have questions about your text plan or data plan, it is best to contact your wireless provider. Messaging frequency may vary. If you are experiencing issues with the messaging program you can reply with the keyword “HELP” for more assistance, or you can get help directly at myguide@transcarent.com. We do not guarantee the successful delivery of text messages by your wireless carrier and you acknowledge that neither Transcarent nor carriers are liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

You acknowledge that you are aware text messages are not fully secure and could be intercepted by a third party. You also acknowledge that, if you share your mobile device with others, they may be able to view text messages sent by Transcarent. It is your responsibility to understand the risks of receiving text messages on your mobile device. It is your responsibility to give a correct mobile number and to update any changes. To update your mobile phone number, sign-in to your app and navigate to your Profile settings. Then, click on the pencil icon next to “Phone number.” If you don’t give us your new mobile number, we are not responsible for any text message sent to the wrong number.

We recommend you use a password to open your mobile device. Text messages may include protected health information (PHI). Since text messaging is unencrypted, there is a risk that this PHI could be intercepted or viewed by third parties, including others who look at your device. When you choose to get text messages from us, you do so at your own risk. The use and disclosure of PHI in text messaging may be governed by other privacy notices, including applicable HIPAA Notice of Privacy Practices.

Push Notifications and In-App Messages. When you install our app on your mobile device, you agree to receive push notifications to the extent allowed by your plan, which are messages an app sends you on your mobile device when the app is not active. You can turn off notifications directly in the Transcarent mobile application by navigating to the “Notifications” screen from your Profile Page and toggling your communications settings.

Email. We may send you emails concerning our products and services, as well as those of third parties, if allowed by your plan or you decide to opt-in to receiving such emails. You may opt out of promotional emails by following the unsubscribe instructions in the promotional email itself or directly in the Transcarent mobile application by navigating to the “Notifications” screen from your Profile Page and toggling your communications settings. If you opt out of receiving promotional messages from us, you will continue to receive administrative messages from us.

Telephone. We may call you when you give prior express consent to get called at activation, in your notification settings, or in other communications with us. We may contact you via the telephone number you provide concerning our products and services, to follow up with you or to let your know about benefits available to you if allowed by your plan. You acknowledge that by voluntarily providing your telephone number, you agree to receive prerecorded voice messages and/or autodialed calls. You acknowledge that automated calls may be made to your telephone number even if your telephone number(s) is registered on any state or federal Do Not Call list. You may opt out from receiving these calls directly in the Transcarent mobile application by navigating to the “Notifications” screen from your Profile Page and toggling your communications settings. You understand that opting-out of calls will opt you out of all calls unless you indicate to us that you wish to continue receiving calls for a particular Service. It is your responsibility to give a correct telephone number and to update any changes. To update your telephone phone number, sign-in to your app and navigate to your Profile settings. Then, click on the pencil icon next to “Phone number.” If you don’t give us your new telephone number, we may not be able to reach you and we are not responsible for any voice message left at the wrong number.

12. Term, Termination and Modification of the Service

Term. These Terms are effective beginning when you accept the Terms or first download, install, access, or use the Service, and end when terminated.

Termination. If you violate any provision of these Terms, your authorization to access the Service and any applicable Healthcare Services, and these Terms automatically terminate. In addition, Transcarent may, at its sole discretion, terminate these Terms or your account on the Service, or suspend or terminate your access to the Service or Healthcare Services, at any time for any reason or no reason, with or without notice. If you lose eligibility for the Service as a result of your coverage under your health plan terminating, Transcarent will suspend your access to the Services, and if your eligibility is not reinstated within ten (10) business days, then Transcarent will terminate your account. You may terminate your account and these Terms at any time directly in the Transcarent mobile application by navigating to the "My Profile" page from the Home Page and selecting "Delete My Account" or by contacting a Transcarent Care Team member.

Effect of Termination. Upon termination of these Terms: (a) your license rights will terminate, and you must immediately cease all use of the Service; (b) you will no longer be authorized to access your account or the Service; (c) you must pay Transcarent any unpaid amount that was due prior to termination; and (d) all payment obligations accrued prior to termination and provisions which by their nature involve obligations extending beyond termination of these Terms will survive.

13. Exclusions and Limitations of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you are responsible for your use of the Service, and you will defend and indemnify Transcarent and its owners, officers, directors, employees, consultants, affiliates, subsidiaries, contractors, and agents (together, the “Transcarent Entities”) from and against every claim brought by a third party, and any related liability, damage, loss, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or connected with: (a) your unauthorized use of, or misuse of, the Service and Healthcare Services; (b) your violation of any portion of these Terms including, but not limited to the Acceptable Use Policy, above, any representation, warranty, or agreement referenced in these Terms, or any applicable law or regulation; (c) your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property right or publicity, confidentiality, other property, or privacy right; (d) your negligence, intentional misrepresentation, fraud, or intentional misconduct, or (d) any dispute or issue between you and any third party. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations with respect to that matter), and in that case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of those claims.

b. Disclaimers; No Warranties.

THE SERVICE, HEALTHCARE SERVICES, AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE AND HEALTHCARE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED “AS IS”, “WHERE IS”, “WITH ALL FAULTS”, AND ON AN “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. Transcarent DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, RELATING TO THE SERVICE, HEALTHCARE SERVICES, AND ALL MATERIALS AND CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE AND HEALTHCARE SERVICES, INCLUDING: (A) ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND (B) ANY WARRANTY ARISING OUT OF COURSE OF DEALING, USAGE, OR TRADE. Transcarent DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE, HEALTHCARE SERVICES, OR ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES, OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT OFFERED THROUGH THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES, WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR FREE OF ERRORS, VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, AND TRANSCARENT DOES NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THOSE ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED.

ADVICE AND INFORMATION PROVIDED BY TRANSCARENT IS NOT MEDICAL CARE. NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE SERVICE, HEALTHCARE SERVICES, OR TRANSCARENT ENTITIES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ANY OF THE TRANSCARENT ENTITIES OR THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES. WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES AND YOUR DEALING WITH ANY OTHER SERVICE USER, INCLUDING HEALTH CARE PRACTITIONERS YOU HAVE ACCESS TO THROUGH THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT YOU USE ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE AND HEALTHCARE SERVICES AT YOUR OWN DISCRETION AND RISK, AND THAT WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY (INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES) OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, INCLUDING USER CONTENT.

THE LIMITATIONS, EXCLUSIONS, AND DISCLAIMERS IN THIS SECTION APPLY TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. Transcarent does not disclaim any warranty or other right that Transcarent is prohibited from disclaiming under applicable law.

c. Exclusions and Limitations of Liability.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE TRANSCARENT ENTITIES BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, OR ANY OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSS) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF, OR YOUR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE, THE SERVICE, HEALTHCARE SERVICES, OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT ON THE SERVICE OR HEALTHCARE SERVICES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT ANY TRANSCARENT ENTITY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF THE TRANSCARENT ENTITIES TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE USE OF OR ANY INABILITY TO USE ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICE, HEALTHCARE SERVICES, OR OTHERWISE UNDER THESE TERMS, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF: (A) THE AMOUNT YOU HAVE PAID TO TRANSCARENT FOR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICE IN THE 12 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT OR CIRCUMSTANCE GIVING RISE TO CLAIM; OR (B) $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 UNDER THESE TERMS. 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 THIS SECTION WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

14. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Generally. In the interest of resolving disputes between you and Transcarent in the most expedient and cost-effective manner, you and Transcarent agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. This agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND Transcarent ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Exceptions. Nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through an applicable federal, state, or local agency if that enforcement action is available through such agency; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law in aid of arbitration; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

Opt-Out. If you do not wish to resolve disputes by binding arbitration, you may opt out of the provisions of this section within 30 days after the date that you agree to these Terms by sending a letter to Transcarent, Inc., Attention: Legal Department – Arbitration Opt-Out, 4700 S. Syracuse Street, Suite 900, Denver, Colorado 80237 that specifies: your full legal name, the email address associated with your account on the Service, and a statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration (“Opt-Out Notice”). Once Transcarent receives your Opt-Out Notice, this section will be void and any action arising out of these Terms will be resolved as set forth in the section below labeled “Miscellaneous.” The remaining provisions of these Terms will not be affected by your Opt-Out Notice.

Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Transcarent will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act and administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules (collectively, “AAA Rules”) as modified by these Terms. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Transcarent. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement.

Notice of Arbitration; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if that other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice of Arbitration”). Transcarent’s address for Notice is: Transcarent, Inc., 4700 S. Syracuse Street, Suite 900, Denver, Colorado 80237. The Notice of Arbitration must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly through informal means, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 60 days after the Notice of Arbitration is received, you or Transcarent may commence an arbitration proceeding. All arbitration proceedings between the parties will be confidential unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Transcarent must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the arbitrator awards you an amount higher than the last written settlement amount offered by Transcarent in settlement of the dispute prior to the award, Transcarent will pay to you the higher of: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator; or (ii) $10,000.

Fees. If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, Transcarent will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in San Francisco County, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing or a virtual hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in San Francisco County, California. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse Transcarent for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

No Class Actions. YOU AND Transcarent 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. Further, unless both you and Transcarent agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Transcarent makes any future change to this arbitration provision, other than a change to Transcarent’s address for Notice of Arbitration, you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to Transcarent’s address for Notice of Arbitration.

Enforceability. If any portion of this section or these Terms is found to be unenforceable, or if Transcarent receives an Opt-Out Notice from you, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section will be null and void and, in that case, the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in the section below labeled “Miscellaneous” will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

15. Miscellaneous

General Terms. These Terms and any other agreements expressly incorporated by reference into these Terms, are the entire and exclusive understanding and agreement between you and Transcarent regarding your use of the Service and Healthcare Services. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise. The failure to require performance of any provision in any one instance will not affect our right to require performance at any other time after that, nor will a waiver by us of any breach or default of these Terms, or any provision of these Terms, in any one instance be a waiver of any subsequent breach or default or a waiver of the provision itself. Use of section headers in these Terms is for convenience only and will not have any impact on the interpretation of any provision. Throughout these Terms the use of the word “including” means “including but not limited to”. If any part of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the unenforceable part will be given effect to the greatest extent possible, and the remaining parts will remain in full force and effect.

Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to conflict of law principles. You and Transcarent submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within New Castle County, Delaware for resolution of any lawsuit or court proceeding permitted under these Terms.

Apple and Apple’s subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary of these Terms.
