7.2 Termination for Convenience. Either Party may terminate this Agreement or any Statement of Work at any time with or without cause on ninety (90) days’ written notice unless explicitly stated otherwise in an applicable Statement of Work. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.4, neither Party in such case shall have any claim as against the other arising solely from such termination (including, without limitation, any claim based on delay, lost profits, or loss of opportunity), all such claims having been deemed waived and released.

 

7.3 Termination for Material Breach. Upon the material breach by either Party of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement or any Statement of Work, the other Party may terminate this Agreement or such Statement of Work upon 30 days’ written notice setting forth the particulars of such breach. Upon the expiration of such notice period (and any extension thereof to which the non-breaching Party may agree), if the alleged breach has not been cured to the satisfaction of the non-breaching Party, the non-breaching Party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement (or the applicable Statement of Work) immediately upon written notice to the breaching Party; however, no such notice period applies to Augmedix if Augmedix deems that the material breach by Scribe Service Provider involves data security or Scribe Service Provider’s representations and warranties under Section 4.4. Such right of termination shall be in addition to such other rights and remedies as the terminating Party may have under applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, either Party may terminate this agreement immediately and without penalty if the other Party: (i) becomes insolvent; (ii) files a petition for bankruptcy or if a proceeding or other action is filed against such party under bankruptcy or similar laws (unless such petition or proceeding is dismissed within sixty (60) days); (iii) makes an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (iv) any events analogous to (i) through (iii) in any jurisdiction outside of the United States.

 

7.4 Rights and Duties Upon Termination.

 

(a) Generally. Upon the termination of this Agreement or any Statement of Work, Scribe Service Provider shall immediately discontinue all applicable Services (unless otherwise expressly directed by Augmedix), and, subject to Sections 7.4(b) and (c) hereof, Augmedix shall be responsible for paying all applicable undisputed charges within fifteen (15) days of the effective date of termination for Services performed through the effective date of such termination.

Accordingly, in the event of any such breach (or threatened breach), either Party shall be entitled to seek preliminary and permanent injunctive relief, without bond, (or the equivalent jurisdictional remedy) with respect to such breach. Neither Party shall oppose such relief on the grounds that there is an adequate remedy at law, and such right shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedies at law or in equity (including monetary damages) which either party may have upon any such breach.

3.Compensation

 

a.Monthly Recurring Fees.

 

1.Current Providers. Each calendar month during the Term, for each In- Service Provider (i) who began receiving Scribing services from Scribe Service Provider prior to the Effective Date of this SOW No. 2, and (ii) is serviced by a Scribe listed on Appendix E, as established on May 31, 2020 (“Current Provider”), Augmedix will pay Scribe Service Provider an hourly rate of US$[*] per Scribe Contracted Hour of each Provider during the prior calendar month (which shall be prorated for partial months of service).

 

2.New or Transitioned Providers. Each calendar month during the term, for each In-Service Provider who begins receiving Scribing services, or is transitioned to Scribe(s) not listed on Appendix E, on or after the Effective Date of this SOW No. 2 (“New Provider”), Augmedix will pay Scribe Service Provider an hourly rate of US$[*] per Scribe Contracted Hour of each Provider during the prior calendar month (which shall be prorated for partial months of service). For clarity, a New Provider is considered “In-Service” as of the first day a Scribe begins producing one or more Charts for all or part of a Provider’s scheduled shift.

 

3.For the avoidance of doubt, in the event a Current Provider is serviced by more than one Scribe listed on Appendix E, such Current Provider shall not transition to “New Provider” hourly rates until the Provider’s primary Scribe (as listed on Appendix E) no longer provides Scribing services to such Provider.

4.In the event Augmedix issues a PO for Scribing services in excess of the number of Providers assigned to Scribe Service Provider for the applicable month, and provided that (i) Scribe Service Provider has delivered enough Scribes to service the cumulative number of Providers included in the Purchase Orders, and (ii) a sufficient number of DR Certified Scribe(s) are available to service a Provider at least two (2) weeks prior to such Provider’s Go-Live Date, Augmedix will, beginning on the 1st of the month in which Augmedix committed to purchase such Scribing services, and continuing thereafter until the earlier of assignment of a Provider or expiration of three (3) months, pay Scribe Service Provider for such excess Scribing services at a monthly rate equivalent to a New Provider contracted at one-hundred and thirty (130) Scribe Contracted Hours.

 

b.Augmedix must pre-approve (i) all staffing by Scribe Service Provider of more than one Scribe working simultaneously on an Authorized User, for all or part of such Provider’s clinical shifts (“Increased Staffing”), and (ii) the number of Increased Staffing hours necessary to service such Provider. Augmedix will pay US$[*] for each agreed Increased Staffing hour per Current Provider and US$[*] for each agreed Increased Staffing Hour per New Provider.

 

c.The compensation described in this Section is subject to the exceptions described elsewhere in this SOW No. 2 and offset based on the credits described in the Scribe Training and Performance SLA and Augmedix Technology SLA attached hereto as Appendix B, and Appendix C, respectively.

 

d.Replacement of Scribes. To the extent applicable, in the event a Scribe resigns or is terminated by Scribe Partner within one (1) year of passing the Doctor-Ready Assessment (each, a “Departed Scribe”), all amounts paid as part of a training bonus for such Departed Scribe, if any, shall be refunded to Augmedix and applied as a credit against the monthly invoiced amount, unless such Scribe resigns as a direct result of Augmedix’s breach of its obligations herein, in which case no refund shall apply. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event a Scribe is promoted to a new position, unless the parties mutually agree that such Scribe will continue to service Augmedix in the new position, Augmedix reserves the right to consider such individual a Departed Scribe, and any amounts paid as a training bonus for such Departed Scribe, if any, shall be refunded to Augmedix and applied as a credit against the monthly invoice.

 

e.Performance Specialists. Each calendar month during the Term, Augmedix will pay Scribe Service Provider a flat fee of US$[*] per month (prorated for partial months) for each full-time Performance Specialist who provides training and feedback to Scribes during the prior calendar month, provided that the PS is requested in a PO and approved by Augmedix. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent an approved PS works as both a Scribe and PS during a particular month, PS compensation shall be prorated for the time period during which such individual serves as a PS.

5.Service Expectations and Requirements

 

It is expected that the Scribe Vendor will take a proactive approach to supporting Augmedix and will provide the highest level of customer service and technical support. Both robust service and technology go hand-in-hand and are fundamental requirements for the Augmedix service.

 

5.1 Proactive Notifications

 

Augmedix expects to be notified proactively, per the priority definitions, in the event of any network and/or system issues that impact Scribe operations including planned downtime (maintenance).

 

5.2 Technical Expertise

 

Augmedix expects Scribe Vendor’s technical/IT team to have superior technical expertise in network and system configuration, design, maintenance and troubleshooting as well as application installation, maintenance, and upgrades. Competency in both hardware and software is required.

 

5.3 Training

 

It is the responsibility of Scribe Vendor to train its technical/IT staff on the tools, technologies and processes required for the support of the Augmedix service and scribe operations.

 

5.4 Documentation

 

All infrastructure and system specifications, configurations and processes must be documented and made available to Augmedix. These documents must be reviewed with Augmedix once a quarter.

Scribe Service Provider SOW No. 2Page 14 of 20

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO AUGMEDIX, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

6.Service Change Management

 

Any planned changes to the state of Augmedix’s production scribe services, including hardware, software, networks and facilities must go through a process of change impact analysis, review and approval prior to implementation. Each change must follow the Change Management Process outlined in Section V of the SOW.

 

Any failure on the part of Scribe Vendor to follow the Change Management Process will be considered a “Breach of Process” for which Scribe Vendor must provide proper justification. Augmedix may audit any changes to verify the requests.

 

7.Service Escalation Management

 

All critical and high-priority incidents (defined below) resulting in the loss of service must immediately trigger the creation of a war-room by the Scribe Vendor and the involvement of the Scribe Vendor and Augmedix technical teams to facilitate the discussion of outstanding issues and satisfactory resolution and closure of the ticket(s):

 

Interruption making a critical functionality inaccessible or a complete network interruption causing a severe impact on services availability.
Critical functionality or network access interrupted, degraded or unusable, having a severe impact on services availability.

 

In order to facilitate the management of escalated incidents, the Scribe Vendor must provide to Augmedix a tiered Escalation Matrix that must include the name of the individual, phone number, email, and conditions under which an incident will be escalated up the management chain.

 

8.Service Security

 

Scribe Vendor is expected to make sure that critical network infrastructure, systems, applications and scribe operations have all the necessary security controls in place for a safe and secure operating environment. Adherence to the compliance, security and privacy requirements set forth in the Operational Requirements for Scribe Vendors (“ORSV”) document is mandatory.

 

8.1 ORSV Audits

 

Augmedix or its designee shall have the right to audit, monitor, and verify Scribe Vendor’s compliance with the ORSV. Augmedix may perform two such audits per twelve (12) month period; provided, however, Augmedix may perform additional audits in response to specific security or privacy incidents or identified gaps in compliance with the ORSV. Except for the initial audit of Scribe Vendor against the ORSV requirements, Scribe Vendor shall bear all costs associated with any audits conducted under this Section 8.

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO AUGMEDIX, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

Should Augmedix determine in its sole discretion, that Scribe Vendor has failed to adhere to the requirements of the ORSV, Scribe Vendor must successfully remediate any compliance deficiencies to the satisfaction of Augmedix within (10) business days of written notice of such deficiencies. If Scribe Vendor fails to remediate deficiencies within the time period prescribed above, or the deficiency is a repeat violation of the same ORSV requirement, Scribe Vendor shall provide Augmedix a credit against Scribe Vendor’s monthly invoice for that month in the amount of up to US$[*] (at Augmedix’s sole discretion) for each day that the deficiencies remain unresolved and/or repeat violations. Further, Augmedix, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to remove Scribe Vendor from its existing Accounts, or withhold the assignment of new Accounts to Scribe Partner until all deficiencies are resolved to the satisfaction of Augmedix.

 

9.Service Support Availability

 

Technical support coverage must align with the Provider schedules that the Scribe Vendor is servicing. Such schedules will be documented in a Single Source of Truth (example: Humanity) for production service availability. In addition, Augmedix may require the availability of the technical/IT support staff during maintenance and/or test windows. Such requests will be made at least 2 business days in advance.

 

10.Service Maintenance and Outages

 

All service maintenance must be performed during scheduled maintenance windows. These activities will render systems and/or applications unavailable for scribe operations at the agreed-upon locations and for the defined time windows. The change management process applies to un-planning service outages as well. In addition, each service disruption/outage must be followed by a Root Cause Analysis/Post-Mortem Report within 24-48 hours of resolution of the outage.

 

In the event of an outage, Scribe Vendor must notify Augmedix within [*] of such occurrence. Thereafter, Scribe Vendor must provide an intermediate progress update to Augmedix every [*] until the issue is resolved.

 

11.Service Reporting

 

Augmedix expects the scribe vendor to present the following reports:

1.Service uptime (and downtime) – Monthly
2.Service outages – Monthly
3.Root Cause Analysis (RCA)/Post- Mortem Report – within 48 hours

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO AUGMEDIX, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

12.Service Exceptions

 

Any deviations from agreed upon policies and processes must be brought up in advance for review and approval in accordance with the defined Change Management Process.

 

13.Service Incentives/Penalties

 

Should Scribe Vendor fail to meet the requirements and benchmarks set forth in this Technology SLA and the Scribe Operation Technology Requirements, Augmedix in its sole discretion reserves the right to remove Scribe Vendor from its existing Accounts or withhold the assignment of new Accounts to Scribe Vendor (even if Augmedix has purchased Scribing Services for a designated number of Providers in the applicable Purchase Orders) until all deficiencies are resolved to the satisfaction of Augmedix.

 

14.Priority Level Definitions

 

To create clear expectations, Augmedix defines priority levels based on the criticality of its function. The priority levels, including resolution, response and update interval timelines are set forth in the table below:

 

Priority   Name   Description   Resolution   First Response Time   Intermediate Update Interval
P1   Critical   Interruption making a critical functionality inaccessible or a complete network interruption causing a severe impact on services availability.   1 hour or less   5 mins or less   15 mins
P2   High   Critical functionality or network access interrupted, degraded or unusable, having a severe impact on services availability.   2 hours   15 mins or less   30 mins
P3   Medium   Non critical function or procedure, unusable or hard to use, having an operational impact but with no direct impact on services availability.   8 hours   30 mins or less   4 hours

Downstream Entity shall include the terms in this Addendum or their equivalent, in its contract or other contractually binding document with each Other Downstream Entity performing Subcontracted Functions, or incorporate such terms by reference. Downstream Entity agrees to promptly provide Delegate with a copy of any such written agreement, upon request. Downstream Entity will provide Delegate and Plan with any information reasonably necessary to evaluate a proposed subcontracting arrangement and for Plan Entities to do the same.

 

Without limiting the foregoing, Downstream Entity agrees that it will not contract with any Other Downstream Entity to perform any Subcontracted Activity unless (i) the Other Downstream Entity’s delegated activities and responsibilities and reporting obligations are described in a written agreement between Downstream Entity and the Other Downstream Entity; (ii) such written arrangement obligates the Other Downstream Entity to comply with relevant provisions contained in the CMS Contract relating to the provision of such delegated services; and (iii) such written arrangement specifically permits an applicable Medicare Plan Entity or CMS to request that Downstream Entity suspend or revoke the Other Downstream Entity’s performance of delegated services with respect to relevant Medicare Subscribers, or take such other remedial action as provided by written agreement with the Other Downstream Entity, if the Other Downstream Entity does not perform the delegated services satisfactorily under the terms of its agreement with Downstream Entity, as determined by Delegate, CMS or the Medicare Plan Entity.

FIRST AMENDMENT TO MASTER SERVICES AGREEMENT

 

This First Amendment to the Master Services Agreement (the “Amendment”), effective as of the date of the last signature set forth below, amends the Master Services Agreement (“Agreement”) by and between Augmedix, Inc. (“Augmedix”) and IDS Infotech Limited (“Scribe Service Provider”), dated October 1, 2019. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment and not defined herein shall have the same meaning assigned to such terms in the Agreement. To the extent there is a conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall control. All other terms of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

 

Whereas, Scribe Service Provider and Augmedix desire to promote the social distancing of personnel in light of the COVID-19 pandemic, and therefore, wish to amend the Agreement to allow telecommute/work from home arrangements for Scribes and other personnel on a temporary basis, and to reflect additional understandings between the Parties.

 

Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Telecommute/Work From Home. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, all Scribe Service Provider personnel, including Scribes, will be permitted to telecommute and render Scribing Services from home on a temporary basis, subject to Augmedix’s approval on a customer-by customer basis for the time period approved by Augmedix and any other additional policies and security requirements established by Augmedix. Consistent with the expectation of information security for Scribe Service Provider’s employees working at the office, telecommuting employees will be required to ensure the protection of proprietary Augmedix and customer information, including PHI, accessible from their home office. Further, each Scribe Vendor Employee who telecommutes will sign the Augmedix Work From Home Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.

 

2. General. This Amendment is hereby incorporated into the Agreement by reference. Except as expressly amended herein, all other terms of the Agreement are hereby confirmed and remain in full force and effect. To the extent that there is any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and those of the Agreement, the terms of this Amendment shall control. This Amendment may be executed in several counterparts, all of which taken together shall constitute one single agreement between the parties and any full and complete copy thereof shall constitute an original. When signed in pen ink, such documents may be delivered by facsimile transmission or by scanned email attachment, and said copies shall be treated in all respects as original.

 

Agreed and Accepted:

Computer: _________________ Monitor: _________________ Keyboard: _________________ Mouse: _________________

 

I have read my employer’s HIPAA Privacy Policy and the Augmedix Information Security Guide for Employees and understand my responsibility to abide by these policies. I am responsible for working the scheduled hours assigned to me, furnishing and maintaining my remote workspace in a safe manner, abiding by Augmedix’s and my employer’s security requirements and protecting Augmedix and customer assets, information, and systems. I will use Augmedix and Electronic Health Record software and equipment in accordance with the applicable license agreements.

 

I will use the equipment provided to me only for work, and not for any personal use. I will access the Augmedix platform and my clinician’s Electronic Health Record only through the VPN provided by my employer, as identified on the computer assigned to me. I will maintain a private workspace that allows me to handle Protected Health Information (PHI) in a private and secure way. This includes, but is not limited to, setting up my desk in a quiet, private area of my home where no one can see my screen, maintaining screen protectors (if available) and wearing headphones at all times. I will provide a photo of my home-based workspace to Augmedix and/or my employer upon request. I will not take screenshots or use any other device other than company provided equipment while I am working my shift. I will keep my phone away from my workspace and out of arms reach and will not use it during my shift. I will not copy, share or discuss PHI with anyone other than those persons who have a need to know such information in order to perform their job duties.

 

I understand that failure to follow these policies and procedures may result in termination of the remote work arrangement, and disciplinary action up to and including termination of employment.
