      Any judg­ment on the award ren­dered by the arbi­tra­tor shall be entered sole­ly and exclu­sive­ly by state courts locat­ed in DuPage Coun­ty, Illi­nois, or the U.S. Dis­trict Court for the North­ern Dis­trict of Illi­nois if juris­dic­tion in fed­er­al court is oth­er­wise prop­er, and each par­ty here­by irrev­o­ca­bly con­sents to the juris­dic­tion of the state courts locat­ed in DuPage Coun­ty, Illi­nois, or the U.S. Dis­trict Court for the North­ern Dis­trict of Illi­nois. The par­ties’ selec­tion of a judi­cial forum does not over­ride the par­ties’ oblig­a­tion to arbi­trate as pre­scribed in this agree­ment, and a par­ty is enti­tled to move to com­pel arbi­tra­tion of any dis­pute sub­ject to arbi­tra­tion under this agree­ment.

      All arbi­tra­tion pro­ceed­ings will be con­fi­den­tial and all records relat­ing there­to will be per­ma­nent­ly sealed to the fullest extent pos­si­ble under applic­a­ble law.

      Pay­ment of all fil­ing, admin­is­tra­tion and arbi­tra­tor fees will be gov­erned by the JAMS Rules. If, how­ev­er, you are able to demon­strate that the costs of arbi­tra­tion will be pro­hib­i­tive for you as com­pared to the costs of lit­i­ga­tion, Duly will pay as much of the fil­ing, admin­is­tra­tion and arbi­tra­tor fees as the arbi­tra­tor deems nec­es­sary to pre­vent the arbi­tra­tion from being cost-pro­hib­i­tive to you.

      If any term, clause or pro­vi­sion of this Sec­tion is held invalid or unen­force­able, it will be so held to the min­i­mum extent required by law, and all oth­er terms, claus­es and pro­vi­sions of this Sec­tion will remain valid and enforce­able. Fur­ther, the waivers set forth in this sec­tion are sev­er­able form the oth­er pro­vi­sions of these Terms of use and will remain valid and enforce­able, except as pro­hib­it­ed by applic­a­ble law.

      This agree­ment shall be con­strued in accor­dance with the laws of the State of Illi­nois, exclu­sive of any choice of law or con­flict of law pro­vi­sion. In any claim or dis­pute relat­ing to the Site or any use or reliance on the Site for which state law pro­vides the rule of deci­sion, the par­ties agree that the laws of the State of Illi­nois shall gov­ern, exclu­sive of any choice of law or con­flict of law. Pro­vid­ed, how­ev­er, that the Fed­er­al Arbi­tra­tion Act (FAA) gov­erns the inter­pre­ta­tion and enforce­ment of all bind­ing arbi­tra­tion pro­ceed­ings under this Agree­ment.

      MYCHART TERMS

      Duly pro­vides MyChart as a secure online envi­ron­ment for patients to access their elec­tron­ic med­ical record and share health infor­ma­tion with their Provider. These MyChart Terms in addi­tion to the Terms of Use out­line your use of MyChart and Duly’s oblig­a­tions with respect to MyChart. Duly reserves the right to revoke access to MyChart at any time and for any rea­son.

      The pur­pose of MyChart is to pro­vide you with (1) access to select­ed por­tions of your med­ical records, such as basic lab­o­ra­to­ry results, sum­ma­ry med­ical his­to­ry, vis­it his­to­ry, and select­ed billing infor­ma­tion, and (2) the abil­i­ty to com­mu­ni­cate with your Provider. Some infor­ma­tion accessed through MyChart may assist in pro­vid­ing med­ical, nurs­ing, or oth­er pro­fes­sion­al ser­vices or advice. How­ev­er, the use of MyChart is not a sub­sti­tute for tra­di­tion­al med­ical advice, con­sul­ta­tion, diag­no­sis, or treat­ment.

      By using MyChart, you agree to use it in accor­dance with these Terms of Use and the applic­a­ble poli­cies of your Provider. These Terms of Use may change with­out notice. Your use of the new or mod­i­fied Terms of Use means that you accept them. You agree to use MyChart appro­pri­ate­ly and as it is intend­ed. MyChart is pro­vid­ed for your con­ve­nience and its avail­abil­i­ty is not an enti­tle­ment, right or priv­i­lege.

      • MyChart Response to Elec­tron­ic Communication.
        • Your Provider will uti­lize its best effort to pro­vide a time­ly response to elec­tron­ic inquiries, but you should allow at least three (3) busi­ness days for a response. Accord­ing­ly, emer­gency sit­u­a­tions requir­ing imme­di­ate atten­tion should not be sub­mit­ted elec­tron­i­cal­ly. If you think you are expe­ri­enc­ing a med­ical or psy­chi­atric emer­gency, do not use MyChart and call 911 or your doc­tor immediately.
        • Duly is only able to respond to elec­tron­ic com­mu­ni­ca­tions based on the infor­ma­tion pro­vid­ed by you. If there is insuf­fi­cient infor­ma­tion pro­vid­ed, Duly will be unable to pro­vide accu­rate and reli­able services.
      • MyChart Minor Eligibility.
        • An indi­vid­ual must be age 16 or old­er to request a per­son­al account. Minor chil­dren under the age of 16 will not be eli­gi­ble to par­tic­i­pate in MyChart ser­vices. Par­ents or guardians of minor chil­dren may request access to the minor child’s account by com­plet­ing the MyChart Child Proxy form. Under State and Fed­er­al law, there are cer­tain types of med­ical infor­ma­tion that the par­ent or guardian of a minor patient aged 12 or old­er may not view with­out con­sent of the minor patient. Because of these require­ments, Duly can only offer lim­it­ed ser­vices to par­ents of minor patients in this age cat­e­go­ry (12−17 years old).
      • MyChart Proxy Access.
        • A par­ent or legal guardian of a minor child up to the child’s 17th birth­day may request proxy access to the minor child’s MyChart account by com­plet­ing the appro­pri­ate proxy access con­sent form and sub­mit­ting it as per the instruc­tions on the form. Such access will only be grant­ed to par­ties with parental rights or legal guardian­ship over the MyChart account hold­er and only to the extent that the par­ty request­ing proxy access can demon­strate the legal right to the account hold­er’s med­ical infor­ma­tion. If the prox­y’s legal rela­tion­ship with the patient changes, the proxy must inform the Provider office or clin­ic imme­di­ate­ly by call­ing the Provider office or clin­ic direct­ly or by send­ing writ­ten notice to the HIM Department.
        • Duly reserves the right to revoke proxy access at any time and for any reason.
        • Indi­vid­u­als aged 18 or old­er may request proxy access to their MyChart account for anoth­er indi­vid­ual by com­plet­ing the appro­pri­ate proxy access form and sub­mit­ting it to your Provider. A MyChart account will be acti­vat­ed for both the proxy and the account holder.
      • MyChart E‑mail Privacy.
        • As a user of MyChart you should be aware that you will be noti­fied via e‑mail when there is new med­ical infor­ma­tion to be viewed in MyChart. This means that any per­son with access to your e‑mail will be able to see this noti­fi­ca­tion. This could include your fam­i­ly mem­bers, employ­er, or any­one else who can access your e‑mail account. Although no pri­vate med­ical infor­ma­tion will be sent, the noti­fi­ca­tion that new med­ical infor­ma­tion is avail­able by access­ing MyChart may be infor­ma­tion that you would not want oth­ers to know. Thus, you should take this into account when pro­vid­ing an e‑mail address or using MyChart.
        • Please know that if you send us a mes­sage through your MyChart, it may be shared with your Provider’s staff that assists the physi­cian in pro­vid­ing your med­ical care. Your pro­tect­ed health infor­ma­tion will be acces­si­ble only to appro­pri­ate staff.
      • MyChart Text/​SMS Alerts.
        • When you sign up for text mes­sages from Duly, you are sign­ing up to receive text mes­sages relat­ed to your rela­tion­ship with your Provider, includ­ing updates relat­ed to your vis­its, MyChart account, one-time pass­code, billing noti­fi­ca­tions, pre­scrip­tion reminders, and care management.
        • You can opt-out of SMS mes­sages by tex­ting STOP to 34070. Your opt-out request will gen­er­ate one final mes­sage con­firm­ing that you have been unsub­scribed.

        • Car­ri­ers are not liable for delayed or unde­liv­ered mes­sages. Mes­sage and data rates may apply for any mes­sages sent to you from your Provider and to your Provider from you. Mes­sage fre­quen­cy may vary.
        • SMS text mes­sage noti­fi­ca­tions may be delayed or not received dur­ing region­al emer­gen­cies or oth­er peri­ods of high mes­sag­ing traf­fic. Third par­ties can send SMS text mes­sages dis­guised as alerts from your Provider and there­fore you are urged to inde­pen­dent­ly ver­i­fy the authen­tic­i­ty of any mes­sage that you receive. SMS text mes­sage order deliv­ery is not always predictable.
      • MyChart Secu­ri­ty and Confidentiality.
        • Providers afford the same degree of con­fi­den­tial­i­ty to med­ical infor­ma­tion stored on MyChart as is giv­en to med­ical infor­ma­tion stored by us in any oth­er medi­um.

Duly lim­its its employ­ees’ access and abil­i­ty to enter or view infor­ma­tion based upon their role in your care. Fire­walls, pass­words, encryp­tion, and audit trails are fur­ther used to safe­guard your infor­ma­tion. Duly shall iden­ti­fy the records released and note the time and date of access each time you access MyChart. Duly has tak­en steps to make all infor­ma­tion received from Duly’s MyChart vis­i­tors as secure as pos­si­ble against unau­tho­rized access and use.
        • For oth­er than gen­er­al infor­ma­tion view­ing, MyChart must be accessed with a Secure Sock­ets Lay­er (SSL) com­pat­i­ble brows­er. Duly’s SSL Web serv­er uses authen­ti­ca­tion and offers the high­est lev­el of encryp­tion tech­nol­o­gy com­mer­cial­ly avail­able (128-bit RC4). You can tell whether you are tru­ly con­nect­ed to MyChart by view­ing the dig­i­tal cer­tifi­cate. This cer­tifi­cate ver­i­fies the con­nec­tion between your Provider server’s pub­lic key and the server’s identification.
        • User­names and pass­words pro­vide two lay­ers of authen­ti­ca­tion and are stored in an encrypt­ed data­base that is iso­lat­ed from the Inter­net. As a MyChart user, your role in main­tain­ing the secu­ri­ty of your med­ical infor­ma­tion is to: 1) Change your pass­word on a reg­u­lar basis, and 2) Keep your login ID and pass­word con­fi­den­tial. If you share your MyChart ID and pass­word with anoth­er per­son, that per­son may be able to view you or your child’s health infor­ma­tion, and health infor­ma­tion about some­one who has autho­rized you as a MyChart proxy. It is your respon­si­bil­i­ty to select a con­fi­den­tial pass­word, to main­tain your pass­word in a secure man­ner, and to change your pass­word if you believe it may have been com­pro­mised in any way.
      • Access to infor­ma­tion not includ­ed in MyChart.
        • MyChart is intend­ed as a secure online source of con­fi­den­tial med­ical infor­ma­tion.
