IMPORTANT NOTICE: PLEASE NOTE THE ARBITRATION REQUIREMENT AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER SET FORTH BELOW, WHICH, SUBJECT TO SOME LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CLAIMS YOU MAY HAVE AGAINST NURSE-1-1 ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.

Definitions

“Health Experts” means US-based, certified nurse practitioners, physician assistants, and registered nurses who are acting as health experts on the Nurse-1-1 platform. Nurse-1-1 reserves the right to expand the network to include other certified health professionals. 

“Customer” means a paying or non-paying customer of Nurse-1-1, such as medical providers or businesses who install the Nurse-1-1 chat widget on their websites for use by End Users. “Customer” does not refer to Health Experts or End-Users.

“Nurse-1-1 Platform” means Nurse-1-1’s proprietary software platform.

“End-User” refers to the individual end users who access the Services to receive health information. These may include individuals who access the Services directly through the Website or users or patients of Nurse-1-1 Customers who have installed the Widget on their own websites or mobile applications.  

“Agents” means named user(s) in the Nurse-1-1 Platform who are permitted by the Customer to use and operate the Services for or on behalf of the Customer. For example, this might include an employee of a Customer who interacts with End Users for the purpose of booking appointments. 

“Widget” means the software or interface that is embedded on a Customer website or customer mobile application or a Nurse-1-1 Website.

What is Nurse-1-1?

Nurse-1-1 is a service owned and operated by VideWell, Inc., a technology company providing a platform on which users can chat with (a) a Health Expert for informational purposes only and/or (b) Agents of Nurse-1-1 Customers, if applicable. The Nurse-1-1 platform can be accessed via the Nurse-1-1 Website, Widget, or Apps, as well as via Customer websites and apps where the Widget is installed. 

Important Guidelines for End Users 

It is important to the interests of Nurse-1-1 that End Users understand the limits of the Services. Accordingly, what follows will outline important limits that End Users must understand and abide by, for the best interests of Nurse-1-1, End Users, and all other parties who use the Services.

  • Disclaimer of Medical Advice

NURSE-1-1 DOES NOT PROVIDE MEDICAL ADVICE OR TREATMENT AND IS NOT A HEALTHCARE PROVIDER.  THE CONTENT IS NOT INTENDED TO BE A SUBSTITUTE FOR PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE, DIAGNOSIS OR TREATMENT. AGAIN, WE ARE A TECHNOLOGY COMPANY, AND NOT A HEALTH CARE PROVIDER. BY USING THE SERVICES, END USERS EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT NO PATIENT-PROVIDER RELATIONSHIP OF ANY KIND IS ESTABLISHED BETWEEN YOU AND NURSE-1-1 BASED ON YOUR INTERACTIONS WITH HEALTH EXPERTS OR ANY OTHER USE OF THE SERVICES. HEALTH EXPERTS CONTACTED USING THE NURSE-1-1 SERVICES DO NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF YOUR PHYSICIAN OR OTHER QUALIFIED HEALTHCARE PROVIDER AND YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO SCHEDULE REGULAR AND ONGOING VISITS WITH YOUR PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIAN (“PCP”).  FOR QUESTIONS OR CONCERNS ABOUT YOUR MEDICAL CARE OR TREATMENT, YOU SHOULD CONTACT YOUR PCP OR ANOTHER QUALIFIED HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL INSTEAD OF USING THE SERVICES.  IF YOU ARE IN NEED OF IMMEDIATE MEDICAL ATTENTION, PLEASE CONTACT A HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONAL OR EMERGENCY SERVICES (SUCH AS 911).  NEVER DISREGARD PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL ADVICE OR DELAY IN SEEKING IT BECAUSE OF YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.

Other than information received directly from your personal medical provider, no information received via the Services should be considered medical advice.  You should always consult with an appropriately qualified health care professional for triage, diagnosis, and treatment, including information regarding which medications or treatment may be appropriate for you.  Nurse-1-1 cannot and does not represent or warrant that any particular medication or treatment is safe, appropriate, or effective for you.  Without limitation, Nurse-1-1 does not recommend or endorse any specific tests, providers, medications, products or procedures.

When using the Services to chat with your personal provider (i.e. your doctor’s office), you are entering into a patient-provider relationship with your provider and in this instance Nurse-1-1 is intended only to facilitate those communications via our technology.  Nurse-1-1 does not replace your existing primary care physician relationship. If your provider is not a Customer and is, therefore, not available via the Services, it is solely your responsibility to find another mode of communication to contact your provider.

  • What can End Users ask Health Experts using the Services?

As an End User, you can ask Health Experts basic health questions and address concerns such as:

  • Your symptoms
  • Medications and side effects
  • Reliable self-care home treatments
  • Self-help and support groups
  • When to go to your doctor
  • When to go to the emergency room
  • Local physician and hospital resources
  • Wellness information
  • Your questions and concerns regarding non-urgent and non-emergency conditions.

Even if you ask a Nurse-1-1 Health Expert or Agent about your concerns, you also should speak with or see your doctor, or go to urgent care for pressing issues, such as if you:

  • Run out of medicine
  • Have questions about your medicine
  • Have an earache, cough or cold
  • Have a small cut, burn or bruise
  • Need shots
  • Have a cough but no wheezing
  • Need a note for work
  • Are feeling worse
  • Your symptoms are worsening or not improving

Even if you ask a Health Expert about your concerns, you should go to the emergency room if you think you have an urgent or emergent health issue, such as:

  • Having a hard time breathing
  • chest pain
  • Choking
  • Serious bleeding
  • Suddenly being unable to move or speak
  • Passing out (fainting)
  • Hit your head and pass out
  • Have a severe headache
  • Having vision changes
  • Are poisoned
  • Have deep cuts or serious burns
  • Are attacked (by a person or an animal)
  • Have broken bones, or sudden serious pain and swelling in a joint
  • Are thinking of hurting yourself or someone else
  • Have a cough and wheezing
  • Have an asthma attack
  • Or any other medical condition that concerns you and/or is affecting you seriously

These limitations are important to understand because Nurse-1-1 cannot know the specific physical, emotional or mental health of End Users.  Moreover, we are working independently of these Health Experts — which means we do not directly provide medical treatment or care.

  • Additional Policies & Disclaimers 

Neither Nurse-1-1 nor the Health Experts are required to report if someone is suicidal or a threat to others. However, Health Experts will be prepared to respond appropriately in the event such a circumstance arises. 

Health Experts are not positioned to treat high levels of emotional distress, such as:

  • Threatening to harm self or others
  • Self-mutilation (“cutting”)
  • Acting out
  • Aggressive behavior
  • Emotional outburst
  • Loss of rationality
  • Venting, screaming, swearing, etc.
  • High energy output

ANY END USER WHO IS EXPERIENCING SUCH HIGH LEVELS OF EMOTIONAL DISTRESS SHOULD SEEK IMMEDIATELY APPROPRIATE ALTERNATIVE RESOURCES, SUCH AS THE CONTACT INFORMATION FOR THE NATIONAL SUICIDE PREVENTION HOTLINE, 988 OR (800) 273-8255, HTTP://SUICIDEPREVENTIONLIFELINE.ORG/ OR OTHER EQUIVALENT RESOURCES.

Nurse-1-1 is not an insurance provider nor are we a prescription fulfillment warehouse.

End Users agree that all information provided to or through the Services, including your medical history provided in a chat with a Health Expert, will be accurate and complete. You accept the risk associated with providing false or inaccurate information and will not hold Nurse-1-1 or any other party associated with the Services accountable for any outcomes arising from or in any way related to your provision of inaccurate information.

The Services may contain health- or medical-related materials that are sexually explicit. If you find these materials offensive, you may not want to use the Services.

Fees 

You will be asked to supply certain information relevant to any payments required for the Services, including information about your method of payment (such as your payment card number and expiration date) and your billing address. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO USE ANY PAYMENT CARD OR OTHER PAYMENT METHOD UTILIZED IN CONNECTION WITH ANY PAYMENT. 

You further agree to provide current, complete, and accurate information in connection with all payments for the Services. You agree to promptly update your account and other information, as applicable, so that we can process your payment and contact you as needed. By submitting any information in connection with an order, you grant to Nurse-1-1 the right to provide such information to third parties for purposes of facilitating the completion of transactions initiated by you or on your behalf. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of an order.

You agree to pay all fees or charges to your account in accordance with the fees, charges, and billing terms in effect at the time a fee or charge is due and payable. You authorize Nurse-1-1 to immediately charge your credit card or other payment account provided for all fees and charges due and payable and agree that no additional notice or consent is required. If any services or payments for use of the Services are subject to sales tax in any jurisdiction, you will be responsible for payment of such sales tax and any related penalties or interest, and will indemnify Nurse-1-1 for any liability or expense incurred in connection with such sales taxes (including any use tax and any other tax measured by sales proceeds that Nurse-1-1 is permitted to pass to you) and Nurse-1-1 may automatically charge and withhold such taxes for services to be delivered within any jurisdictions that it deems is required. Unless otherwise agreed to by Nurse-1-1 in writing, all fees paid are non-refundable. If you ever have questions about your fees or charges, please contact us at support@nurse-1-1.com.

Fee Structure and Changes

Our Services are free to End Users if the End User’s healthcare provider, insurance plan, Nurse-1-1 customer, or a local clinic in the End User’s area is partnered with us. For all other cases, we will charge you a flat fee each time you use the Services. The applicable fee will be presented for your acceptance and payment prior to each use of the Services. Nurse-1-1 reserves the right to modify any aspect of our fee structure for End Users at any time. 

Refunds

Except when otherwise required by law, paid fees are non-refundable.

When you create an account with us, you guarantee that you are of the age of 18 years or above or of the legal age to create a binding contract (whichever is greater), located within the United States, and that the information you provide us is accurate, complete, and current at all times. Inaccurate, incomplete, or obsolete information may result in the immediate termination of your account on the Services.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, including the restriction of access to your computer, phone, and/or account.

Termination

We may terminate or suspend your account and bar access to the Services immediately, without prior notice or liability, at our sole discretion, for any reason whatsoever including if we believe you have breached these Terms.

All provisions of these Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, which you agree shall include all provisions relating to our ownership of the Services, all warranty disclaimers, indemnification requirements, limitations of liability, and the Dispute Resolution & Agreement to Arbitrate and Governing Law & Forum sections.

Dispute Resolution & Agreement to Arbitrate

By using the Services, you and Nurse-1-1 agree that, if there is any controversy, claim, action, or dispute arising out of or related to your use of the Services or the breach, enforcement, interpretation, or validity of these Terms or any part of them (“Dispute”), both parties shall first try in good faith to settle such Dispute by providing written notice to the other party describing the facts and circumstances of the Dispute and allowing the receiving party thirty (30) days in which to respond to or settle the Dispute. Notice shall be sent to:

Notice Nurse-1-1: You must send notice (1) by electronic mail to Support@nurse-1-1.com and (2) by first-class or certified mail to: VideWell Inc. 101 Middlesex Tpke, Ste 6 PMB 369 Burlington, MA 01803-4914

  • Notice to You: We will send notice by (1) first class or certified mail to the physical address we have on file for you (if any) and (2) by electronic mail to the email address we have on file for you (if any). If we do not have a physical or email address on file for you, or if we are, for any reason, unable to provide notice via the contact information on file, we reserve the right to provide notice by such means as we deem reasonable.

Both you and Nurse-1-1 agree that this dispute resolution procedure is a condition precedent that must be satisfied before initiating any litigation or filing any claim against the other party. 

IF ANY DISPUTE CANNOT BE RESOLVED BY THE ABOVE DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEDURE, YOU AGREE THAT SUCH DISPUTE WILL BE DECIDED BY BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND YOU WAIVE, THE RIGHT TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. Other rights that you and we would otherwise have in court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including discovery and appeal rights. 

All such Disputes shall be exclusively submitted to Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS) (www.jamsadr.com) for binding arbitration under its rules then in effect (as modified by this agreement to arbitrate), before one arbitrator to be mutually agreed upon by both parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the JAMS Consumer Arbitration Minimum Standards (https://www.jamsadr.com/consumer-minimum-standards/) if it is determined by JAMS or the arbitrator that these standards are applicable to the Dispute. The location of any hearings will be determined by the applicable JAMS rules, provided that if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose to have the arbitration conducted (1) solely on the basis of the documents submitted to the arbitrator or (2) through a non-appearance based hearing by teleconference or videoconference. 

The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any Dispute arising under or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms, including any claim that all or any part of these Terms are void or voidable. For the avoidance of doubt, you and Nurse-1-1 agree that the arbitrator shall have the exclusive power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope, or validity of this agreement to arbitrate or the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim. The arbitrator may award (on an individual basis) any relief that would be available in a court. The award rendered by the arbitrator may be confirmed and enforced in any court having jurisdiction thereof. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in lieu of arbitration either you or Nurse-1-1 may (1) bring an individual claim in small claims court in the United States consistent with any applicable jurisdictional and monetary limits that may apply and (2) file an individual claim in court to enjoin the infringement or other misuse of its intellectual property rights, provided that any such claim is brought and maintained on an individual basis. 

Governing Law & Forum

These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of The United States (including federal arbitration law) and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, , without regard to any conflict of law provisions.

Except for disputes or claims properly lodged in a small claims court in the United States, any disputes or claims not subject to the arbitration provision discussed above shall be resolved by a court located in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and you further agree and expressly consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction in such courts. You further agree that any such claims will be brought and maintained solely on an individual basis and not as part of any class, consolidated, collective or representative capacity, and that you waive your right to a jury trial with respect to any such action. 

You and Nurse-1-1 acknowledge that these Terms evidence a transaction involving interstate commerce. Any arbitration conducted pursuant to these Terms shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16).

We May Update this Agreement

We may modify or amend these Terms from time to time. Our Terms of Use link includes the word ‘Terms’ and can be easily be found at https://nurse-1-1.com/health/privacy-policy/ When we update these Terms, we will update the “Last Updated” date at the top of the page. You are expected to check this page frequently so that you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you. If we modify or amend these Terms, your continued use of the Services will mean that you accept those modifications or amendments. If users email us at and request the latest Terms, a copy will be emailed.
