Welcome to Quick Doc. We are dedicated to providing you with high quality care and service. Quick Doc has a mission to transform primary health care by refocusing on the unique needs of each individual patient, providing greater access and time with your Quick Doc provider, and simplifying the way we do health care. We regard your understanding of the benefits of our program and our financial policies as an essential element of your care. This Program Agreement (this “Agreement”) outlines the terms and conditions of your participation in our CarePackage Program. By completing your registration and participation in the Program You indicate that you have read, understand, and agree to the following terms:
1. The Parties. This Program Agreement is made by and between Quick Doc, LLC. d/b/a Quick Doc (“Quick Doc” or “We”) and the persons who participate in this Program Agreement as Patients (each a “Patient”, “Your” or “You”).
2. Services. As used in this Agreement, the term Services is defined as a package of medical and non-medical services and amenities (collectively known as “Services”) that are offered by Quick Doc, as more particularly set forth in Schedule A. Quick Doc will provide these Services to you at a level of professionalism that is consistent with your Quick Doc provider’s training and experience as a family your Quick Doc provider.
3. The Program. The Program is defined as the providing of Services to Patient by Quick Doc in exchange for certain fees paid by the Patient under the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. The services listed on Schedule B (collectively, “Non-Covered Services”) are not offered under the Program by Quick Doc or covered by the Program Fees. If a Quick Doc provider determines you need any Non-Covered Services that we do not provide, we will refer you to another health care provider, coordinate your care, and provide the information reasonably necessary for your medical care to the other healthcare provider. You understand and agree that you are responsible for any and all charges incurred for any health care services performed outside of Quick Doc and or provided by anyone other than a Quick Doc provider, including, without limitation, for any health care provider to which you are referred or any outside testing recommended by your Quick Doc provider.
4. Program Fees. You agree to pay Quick Doc the Enrollment fee as well as the monthly program fee as detailed on the checkout page (collectively, the “Program Fees”) in advance on the first day of each month while this Program Agreement is in effect. Quick Doc accepts credit/debit cards for the enrollment fee and the initial month’s Program Fee. After the initial month, your monthly Program Fee will be processed through automatic funds transfer (AFT) through credit/debit card transaction. Payment of your monthly program fee will be automatically deducted from your credit/debit card on the first day of each month during the term of this Agreement. If your monthly program fee is rejected by your banking institution or credit/debit card company, you will be charged a $25 fee for each such rejection. Given the rising costs of health care, Quick Doc reserves the right to increase the Program Fees from time to time, but will do so no more than once a calendar year and you will be notified at least sixty (60) days in advance of any Program Fees increase.
5. Termination.
5.1 By You. You may terminate your participation in the Program at any time by sending a written notice to Quick Doc at least thirty (30) days prior to the first day of the month for which you wish your Program participation to terminate. If you elect to terminate your participation in the Program, you understand and agree to select a new primary care your Quick Doc provider before your termination date and notify Quick Doc of the name of your new primary care your Quick Doc provider. However, your failure to find a new primary care your Quick Doc provider, or not notifying Quick Doc of such, will not result in continued obligation of Quick Doc or your Quick Doc provider to treat you beyond date of termination of this Agreement. With your written authorization, Quick Doc will transfer your medical records maintained by Quick Doc to your new primary care provider. If you are dissatisfied with any of Services provided to you under this Agreement, your right to terminate this Agreement will be your only remedy at law or in equity (subject to any rights that are non-waivable by law). If you terminate your participation in the Program and later determine to renew your participation in the Program, you may be required to pay a re-enrollment fee as determined by Quick Doc in its sole discretion. Quick Doc reserves the right at all times to determine, in its sole discretion, whether to accept any patient into the Program.
