Amendment





Agreement and Effect of This Amendment





This Amendment supplements the agreement between the parties dated August 1, 2002 “American CareSource Client Agreement with HealthSmart Preferred Care II, LP” (hereinafter referred to as “Client Agreement”).  It shall have no effect apart from the Client Agreement.  This Amendment's use of terms, names, or labels that are different from those of the Client Agreement shall not by itself alter the effect of either document.

This Amendment may be modified or supplemented only by an express amendment dated and signed by authorized representatives of the parties.  Except for blanks on originally printed forms, no handwritten or separately printed additions or changes on this document will be effective, even if they are initialed or signed.





Amendment effective date: September 1, 2005

During the term of this Agreement, ACS will maintain a fully-credentialed network of ancillary health care service providers and will provide HealthSmart Participants access to those Network Providers.  ACS will supply the names and provider demographics for each Network Provider to HealthSmart at least monthly in a mutually agreed-upon electronic format.  HSPC shall not exclude ACS Network Providers for any purpose or reason other than the exceptions of (1) the necessity to have the provider remain with the HSPC network, (2) participation in ACS network would prohibit the provider from representation by HSPC for contracting via the administrative fee business model, and (3) inclusion of the ACS provider would cause potential harm or discord to HSPC provider rates or relationships.  ACS will not notify its Network Providers that HealthSmart Participants will begin utilizing the Network Providers.  ACS will notify their network providers of any new payor to the ACS network that HSPC participants will begin utilizing.  The network contact letter must be approved by HSPC.

ACS will provide Network Provider Relations services for Network Providers for claims paid by ACS to the Network Provider, including toll-free telephone lines, to address any payment or claims review issues involving the payment of the claim under the Provider Agreement.





[***]





III.           Obligations of HealthSmart and/or Payors





All previous language pursuant to Section III, Paragraphs 3.1, 3.4, and 3.5 are replaced with the amended language as set forth below.  Paragraph 3.6 and 3.7 are added to the Client Agreement.

Payer shall send an applicable explanation of payment/benefit information to enable ACS to provide such information to the Network Provider, including the amount of Participant Expense for each claim.





3.6 Payment .  When Payor has finally adjudicated the repriced Network Provider claims for Participants, it will remit all Benefit Plan payments to ACS for each such Network Provider, Payor will pay ACS the repriced amount, less applicable Participant Expenses (copayments and deductibles).  Payor will utilize ACS' tax identification number for all such payments, recognizing the assignment of the claim from the Network Provider to ACS.  Payments to ACS shall be made as soon as possible following adjudication of the claim to ensure satisfaction of timely claims payment guidelines.

Fourth Amendment to the Provider Service Agreement





This Fourth Amendment, effective the 20th day of December, 2008 (the “Effective Date”), amends the American CareSource Client Agreement, dated August 1, 2002, by and between American CareSource Holdings, Inc. and HealthSmart Preferred Care II, LP (hereinafter referred to as the “Provider Service Agreement”) and its subsequent amendments effective September 1, 2005 (the “First Amendment”), January 1, 2007 (the “Second Amendment”),  and July 31, 2007 (the “Third Amendment” and, together with the First Amendment and the Second Amendment, the “Client Amendments”).  The Provider Service Agreement, as amended by the Client Amendments and this Amendment, is referred to as the “Provider Service Agreement, as amended.”  This Amendment is entered into by and among American CareSource Holdings, Inc., HealthSmart Preferred Care II, LP and HealthSmart Holdings, Inc.





The terms of this Amendment preempt, supersede, and override all contrary terms and conditions of the Provider Service Agreement, as amended.  All unaffected terms and conditions of the Provider Service Agreement and the Client Amendments shall remain in full force and effect.  For the purpose of this Fourth Amendment, “ACS” refers to American CareSource Holdings Inc. and its affiliate companies, including but not limited to Ancillary Care Services, Inc., “Parent” refers to HealthSmart Holdings, Inc. and “HSPC” refers to HealthSmart Preferred Care, II, L.P. (collectively with the entities listed in Exhibit A hereto, “HealthSmart” or the “HealthSmart Entities”).





On September 21, 2007, HSPC became affiliated with Interplan Health Group (“IHG”).  ACS and HSPC agree that adding members of the IHG network to the list of Covered Persons would be mutually beneficial as contemplated by Section 12 of the Third Amendment.





All terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the meaning ascribed to them in the Provider Service Agreement, as previously amended.





As of the Effective Date, and as provided for in Section 16 of the Third Amendment, the parties agree as follows:





|   |

|   |

|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|ii) | HSPC will stop using a non-participating provider for any HealthSmart Entity if the ACS network is able to provide substitute coverage for the same service with quality standards and economics that satisfy either the same standards applied to the current providers or substantially similar standards actually applied to the current providers within the same geographic area.




|   |

|10) | In the case of any disputes or issues that may arise in connection with the respective rights and/or obligations of the parties under the Agreement, arbitration will be entered into in Dallas, Texas.  Each party will notify the other, in writing, of the name of its representative(s) who will have primary responsibility for communications with the other party.
