This Practice Partner Program Agreement (“Agreement”) between Henry Schein Dental, a division of Henry Schein, Inc. (“Henry Schein”) and the customer listed above (“you” or “Customer”), including the attached Terms and Conditions (and, to the extent you use the OnTraq™ Software, the OnTraq™ Software Terms and Conditions referenced below) (together, this “Agreement”) includes (i) the number of HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kit(s) which you are ordering from Henry Schein, (ii) your membership in the Program (as defined below) under this Agreement with respect to such ordered HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kits, as well as other terms and conditions of your membership.
The Program includes (i) the supply of the ordered HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kit(s) and (ii) replenishment of medications contained in such HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kit(s) (“Medications”) which during the Term of this Agreement have expired; and (iii) the replacement of any Medications in HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kits which during the Term are used for emergency events (collectively, the “Program”). You acknowledge and agree that any HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kits ordered by you and all Medications to be replenished or replaced hereunder, or otherwise ordered by you shall be drop shipped to you by HF Acquisition Co. LLC dba HealthFirst (“HealthFirst”) and that Henry Schein will have no liability for any failure of HealthFirst to provide such HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kits or Medications.
Included in your membership in the Program is access to OnTraq™, HealthFirst’s online dashboard that displays the status of the Customer Emergency Medical Kit Medications and pending shipments. To create your OnTraq™ account, log on to login.healthfirst.com/register, and complete the sign-up process, by accepting the terms and conditions of the OnTraq™ SaaS Agreement (“OnTraq™ Terms and Conditions”). Complete instructions will be sent with your welcome kit as well as with your first shipment of Medications.
The initial term of this Agreement is one (1) year (“Initial Term”) which begins on the date the applicable HealthFirst Emergency Medical Kit is shipped to you. This Agreement will automatically renew for additional one (1) year terms (each a “Renewal Term” and, together with the Initial Term, the “Term”) unless either party terminates this Agreement no less than 60 days prior to the conclusion of the Initial Term or any Renewal Term, as the case may be. Billing and collections hereunder shall be administered by Henry Schein. Billing will begin promptly following the first shipment of Medications. Invoices must be paid to Henry Schein within 30 days of the invoice date. Billing will occur annually.
By submitting that you agree to these terms and conditions, you hereby agree to enroll in the Program based on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. Once we receive (i) the Enrollment Confirmation of this Agreement with all applicable information filled out, (ii) your completed license and shipping address information, HealthFirst will ship your selected Emergency Medical Kit model(s) to you. This is to ensure that HealthFirst can accurately track the Medications and expiration dates for replenishment or replacement, including in the event of any Medication recall.
If there is an ongoing manufacturer back order on any Medications ordered by you, these may not be sent with your applicable shipment. If at any time Medications managed under this Program are unavailable, whether due to manufacturer backorders, shortages or any other reason, HealthFirst may supply an equivalent medication type which may be from an alternate manufacturer or in an alternate form factor (e.g.: one 10mL vial may be substituted for two 5mL vials). All such substitutions will be the equivalent medication formulation, volume, strength and dose.
These Terms and Conditions and the OnTraq™ Terms and Conditions (to the extent applicable (together, the “Terms and Conditions”) are incorporated into and made a part of the Agreement (“Form Agreement”) to which these Terms and Conditions are attached (the Form Agreement and these Terms and Conditions collectively referred to as the “Agreement”), which Agreement is effective as of the date set forth on the Form Agreement (the “Effective Date”) and is between the customer identified on the Form (“Customer”) and Henry Schein (each, a “Party” and together, the “Parties”).
