3.               AUGMEDIX NOTES SOLUTION

3.1       Augmedix Notes. Commencing on the effective date of the applicable Service Order and continuing throughout the remainder of the Subscription Term of such Service Order, Augmedix will provide Augmedix Notes as specified herein and in the applicable Service Order. Utilizing their Content Capture Devices, Authorized Users will connect and use the Augmedix Application to send a secure audio/video recording of the clinician-patient encounter to an MDS, who will view the encounter and utilize Augmedix’s proprietary Notebuilder Platform to prepare the draft medical documentation. Augmedix will then upload the medical documentation into the Customer EHR, in pending status, awaiting the Authorized User’s review, finalization and approval. Authorized User’s shall be ultimately responsible for the content of any medical documentation prepared by Augmedix on an Authorized User’s behalf. Augmedix will ensure that all MDSs comply with the terms and conditions of all agreements between Customer and third parties relating to the use of the Customer EHR. Customer may access and use Augmedix Notes solely for its internal business purposes and such access and use is expressly limited to the number of Authorized Users for which Customer has paid Fees in accordance with the applicable Service Order.

3.2           Service Phase. The service phase (“Service Phase”) consists of ongoing virtual, non-real time medical documentation assistance by Augmedix-supplied MDSs on behalf of Customer’s designated Authorized Users. The Service Phase will commence on the first day Augmedix produces patient notes that are uploaded into the Customer EHR, on an Authorized User-by-Authorized User basis (each a “Launch Date”), and continue for the remainder of the Subscription Term of the applicable Service Order.

5.              CUSTOMER OBLIGATIONS

5.1           IT, Telecommunications and Internet Services. Customer acknowledges and agrees that Customer’s and its Authorized Users’ use of Augmedix Notes is dependent upon access to telecommunications and internet services meeting certain minimal site connectivity requirements. Except for the Content Capture Device(s) and Augmedix Application, Customer shall be solely responsible for acquiring and maintaining all telecommunications, internet services, and other hardware and software required to access and use Augmedix Notes, including, without limitation, any and all costs, fees, expenses, and taxes of any kind related to the foregoing. Augmedix shall not be responsible for any loss or corruption of data, lost communications, or any other loss or damage of any kind arising from any such telecommunications and internet services.

5.2           Access. At no cost to Augmedix, Customer shall provide Augmedix (and any of its third-party MDS suppliers) with appropriate access and related credentials for use of Customer EHR, and any other required Customer Materials, as necessary for Augmedix to provide Augmedix Notes to Customer. Customer must provide all credentials and permissions necessary for Augmedix personnel to access the Customer EHR within two (2) weeks of Augmedix’s written request. If credentials are not provided within two (2) weeks of Augmedix’s written request, Augmedix cannot guarantee Augmedix Notes and reserves the right to delay Customer’s Launch Date until appropriate Customer EHR credentials can be provided by Customer.

5.3           Recording of Patient Encounters. In order to enable Augmedix Notes, Authorized Users shall be responsible for initiating a recording on the Content Capture Device through the Augmedix Application at the beginning of each patient-provider encounter and stopping the recording at the conclusion of the visit. For clarity, Authorized Users shall not record patient-provider encounters in a block of two or more visits; each patient-provider encounter shall be recorded separately. In the event an Authorized User fails to record each patient-provider encounter separately, Augmedix will make good faith efforts, but cannot guarantee, that patient notes will be available for review and finalization within four (4) hours of upload.

5.4           Patient Education and Consent. Customer shall: (a) inform each patient, prior to an Authorized User’s use of Augmedix Notes with such patient, of the function, extent, and purpose of Augmedix Notes and utilization of audio/video equipment by means of the Content Capture Device in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations; and (b) obtain the patient’s consent, to the extent required under applicable laws and regulations, for the Authorized User to use Augmedix Notes. Without limiting the foregoing, Customer may utilize patient education materials, including FAQs, provided by Augmedix (“Education Materials”). If Customer chooses to utilize the Education Materials, Customer agrees not to make any material changes to the Education Materials without Augmedix’s prior written consent.

5.5           Scheduling. Seven (7) days prior to the Launch Date for an Authorized User and the start of each month thereafter, Customer shall input a daily schedule for each Authorized User for each day of the following month in Customer EHR or other Customer scheduling software (“Daily Schedule”). The Daily Schedule will be used by Augmedix to staff MDSs for Augmedix Notes. If Customer does not notify Augmedix seven (7) days in advance of clinic, Augmedix cannot guarantee MDS availability.

5.5.1     Customer must provide seven (7) days’ written notice in advance of any material Daily Schedule change during a month. If less than seven (7) days’ written notice is received, Augmedix will make good faith efforts, but does not guarantee, to accommodate such requests.

5.6           EHR Transitions. In the event Customer transitions from one EHR system to another EHR system, Customer shall provide at least sixty (60) days’ written notice to Augmedix. The parties shall negotiate reasonably and in good faith to agree upon the details of a project plan for the transition. The failure to provide Augmedix with the required notice or to abide by the agreed-upon project plan for an EHR transition may negatively impact the continuity of Augmedix Notes. Subject to the foregoing, transition services will be provided by Augmedix and paid for by Customer on a time and cost basis.
