Hyr Medical, on behalf of itself and any third parties with software that may have been, or may be, incorporated into the Software Product, reserves all of its, and all of such third parties’, rights in the same.
1.3 Hyr Medical shall cause the Support Services to be available 24 hours per day and 7 days per week.
Fees; Invoices.
2.1 Within 30 days of a Physician completing an Assignment and the Medical Group approving the submitted Physician timesheet, Hyr Medical shall deliver to the Medical Group an invoice for the Service Fees for such Assignment.
2.2 If a Physician fails to complete an Assignment, the Medical Group shall be obligated to pay for only those services completed by such Physician in respect of such Assignment (if any). If the Medical Group cancels an Assignment more than 30 days prior to the Assignment Start Date, the Medical Group may not be obligated to pay any Service Fees in respect of such Assignment. If the Medical Group cancels any Assignment within the 30-day period that precedes the Assignment Start Date, or cancels any Assignment after the Assignment Start Date, the Medical Group will be obligated to pay the Service Fee in respect of such Assignment, provided, however, that if the Medical Group so cancels such Assignment for Cause, and has notified Hyr Medical of its intent to do so prior to such cancellation, the Medical Group shall be obligated to pay for only those services completed by such Physician in respect of such Assignment (if any).
2.3 Within 30 days of receiving each invoice from Hyr Medical, the Medical Group shall pay to Hyr Medical all of the Service Fees contemplated in such invoice. The Medical Group may reduce the Service Fees actually paid by an amount equal to 1% of such Service Fees if the Medical Group’s payment of such Service Fees will be received by Hyr Medical within 10 days of receiving such invoice. If any Service Fees remain unpaid at the end of the 30-day period contemplated in this §2.5, interest shall accrue monthly at a rate of 1% of the amount that remains unpaid.
2.4 Hyr Medical, on behalf of the Medical Group, shall be responsible for paying Physicians who complete Assignments. If the amounts so paid by the Medical Group are to be delivered to a Physician, Hyr Medical shall act as the Physician’s limited payment collection agent appointed solely for the purpose of accepting certain of the Service Fees from the Medical Group.
2.5 The Medical Group shall be responsible for paying, and/or shall reimburse Hyr Medical for, any sales, use, excise, value-added, withholding or other taxes due or payable as a result of the Service Fees and shall reimburse Hyr Medical for any fees, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) or other amounts incurred in collecting such Service Fees.
2.6 The Medical Group shall pay Hyr Medical a cost per hour for the Physician that is equal to the Physicians rate per hour plus a 20% markup on the Physician rate.
Posts, Opportunities and Assignments.
3.1 The Medical Group will provide a Post for each Opportunity.

Hyr Medical does not guarantee that a Physician will reply to each Post or that any Opportunity will result in an Assignment.
3.2 The Medical Group will notify Hyr Medical within 2 days of receiving any Physician’s reply to a Post if such Physician has previously sought to provide services to the Medical Group, is or was employed by, or provides or provided services to, the Medical Group or is otherwise known to the Medical Group.

3.3 The Medical Group will not request that a Physician provide services during an Assignment that materially deviates from that which is described in the Post corresponding to such Assignment and will not to require that a Physician provide services on its behalf according to a work schedule that would be deemed to be unreasonable within the industry. The Medical Group may not require that an Assignment be completed at a location other than the location set forth in the Post corresponding to such Assignment. If the Medical Group desires for an Assignment to be completed at a location other than as set forth in the Post, there may be an additional Service Fee.
3.4 The Medical Group will provide directly to each Physician providing services on its behalf a copy of, or electronic access to, all of the Medical Group’s policies and procedures to which such Physician will be subject when providing services on the Medical Group’s behalf. Each Physician has agreed to comply with any and all such policies and procedures and to comply with all applicable professional standards relating to patient care and work environments.
3.5 The Medical Group will make available to each Physician providing services on its behalf the usual and customary equipment and supplies necessary and/or reasonable to provide such services and a well-maintained practice environment that is otherwise suitable to provide such services and in compliance with acceptable ethical, medical and legal standards. 3.6 Each Physician has agreed to promptly execute any and all documents that are reasonably required to assign to the Medical Group any and all billing rights to fees due from patients in respect of any Assignment.
Licensure; Insurance; Compliance.

4.2 Hyr Medical will provide occurrence based, professional liability insurance coverage for each Physician providing services to the Medical Group to cover all incidents that may occur while such Physician is providing services to the Medical Group, regardless of when a claim is made, in limits of at least $1,000,000 per incident and $3,000,000 in the aggregate. Alternatively, the Medical Group shall provide such coverage to each Physician if Hyr Medical is notified in advance.
4.3 The Medical Group will comply with Hyr Medical’s reasonable risk management and quality assurance activities. Without limitation of that set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Medical Group will notify Hyr Medical of any incident, potential claim or claim that may give rise to a claim under Hyr Medical’s professional liability policy of insurance and provide to Hyr Medical a description of, and all other information related to, any of the same as may be requested by Hyr Medical from time to time.

5.3 Hyr Medical further acknowledges that PHI received from the Medical Group shall remain the Medical Group’s property and that, within 10 business days of the Medical Group’s request or upon termination of the Agreement, such PHI shall be returned to the Medical Group or destroyed, if the Medical Group so directs (provided, however, that Hyr Medical may retain a copy of PHI for its own risk management purposes and as may be required by law). If such return or destruction is infeasible, Hyr Medical shall use such PHI only for purposes that make such return or destruction infeasible and the provisions of the Agreement shall survive with respect to such PHI.
5.4 Hyr Medical shall make available to the Medical Group, upon the Medical Group’s request, copies of Hyr Medical’s internal policies and procedures regarding HIPAA compliance.
