HEALTHCARE CHANGE EULA

Parties and Purpose

This Healthcare Change End User License Agreement (Agreement) is entered into by the patient named below (Patient) and the healthcare provider, its agents and authorized users (Provider). This Agreement establishes the terms and conditions under which Patient requests, authorizes, and consents to changes, corrections, or updates to medical records, care plans, and related electronic information and to Patient's access and use of Provider change management mechanisms.

Scope of Changes and Authorization

Patient hereby authorizes Provider to process change requests to Patient's medical record, including corrections to demographic data, clinical entries, medication lists, allergies, and care plans, subject to Provider's review and validation policies. Patient understands that:

• Provider will review each requested change for accuracy and clinical appropriateness; changes may require corroborating documentation or professional review.
• Changes that alter prior clinical findings or legal records may be implemented as amendments rather than deletions, in accordance with Provider's record retention and legal obligations.
• Provider is not required to implement changes that are frivolous, fraudulent, or unsupported by documentation.

Preferred method for submitting supporting documentation (select all that apply):

Electronic patient portal Telephone request (follow-up in writing required) Written request delivered to records office Third-party representative submission

Timing, Review, and Appeals

Provider will acknowledge receipt of the request in writing within a reasonable time and will complete its review consistent with applicable law and Provider policy. If a requested change is denied in whole or in part, Patient will receive a written denial that includes a reason and instructions for submitting an appeal or a statement of disagreement to be included in the medical record.

Privacy, Use of Data, and HIPAA Acknowledgment

Patient acknowledges that changes to records may involve Protected Health Information (PHI). Provider will handle PHI in accordance with privacy and security obligations. By signing, Patient acknowledges receipt of Provider's privacy practices and authorizes disclosure of necessary PHI to effectuate the requested change and any related audit, billing, or peer review processes.

I acknowledge receipt of Provider's privacy practices and authorize use and disclosure of my PHI as described above.

Limitations, Warranties, and Liability

Patient understands and agrees that Provider makes no warranty that a requested change will be accepted or that historical entries can be erased. Provider disclaims all warranties, express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law. To the extent permitted by law, Provider's liability arising from processing or refusing to process a change is limited to direct proven damages and shall not include punitive, consequential, special, or incidental damages.

Indemnification and Cooperation

Patient agrees to indemnify and hold Provider harmless from claims, losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from knowingly submitting false information in a change request or from misuse of Provider change mechanisms. Patient agrees to cooperate with any reasonable verification steps Provider requires.

Amendment, Termination and Governing Law

Provider may amend this Agreement as necessary for operations, compliance, or legal requirements. Provider will provide notice of material changes in accordance with Provider policies. Either party may terminate their participation in electronic change mechanisms; however, obligations accrued prior to termination will survive. This Agreement is governed by the laws of the state where the Provider maintains its principal office, without regard to conflict of law doctrines.

Authorization Duration and Withdrawal

This authorization is effective upon Patient signature and shall expire on unless earlier revoked in writing. Withdrawal of authorization will not affect actions taken in reliance on this authorization prior to receipt of the revocation.
