  16. MEDIATION AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT. While the Practice does not anticipate any issues or concerns during the course of my treatment, it is understood and agreed by me and the Practice, including its employees (including, its nurses, physicians, etc.), agents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or assigns, that any and all disputes between us exceeding the jurisdictional limit of the small claims court, including, but not limited to any claim of medical malpractice, loss of consortium, wrongful death, and emotional distress (“Disputes”) shall first be submitted to non-binding mediation or, if such mediation proves to be unsuccessful, to binding arbitration, and not by a lawsuit or resort to court process except as applicable law provides for judicial review of arbitration proceedings. A Dispute shall be waived and forever barred if (i) on the date notice thereof is received by a party requesting Mediation and/or arbitration of a Dispute, the claim, cause of action or Dispute, if asserted in a civil action, would be barred by the applicable statute of limitations for the applicable state or federal law that would otherwise govern it if it had been brought in civil court, or (2) the applicable party fails to pursue arbitration in accordance with the procedures prescribed herein with reasonable diligence. It is our intent that this agreement binds all parties whose claims may arise out of or related to any treatment or service provided by the Practice to me, including my spouse (if any) or heirs and any children, whether born or unborn, at the time of the occurrence giving rise to any claim.

  17. All Disputes based upon the same incident, transaction or related circumstances shall be mediated and, if necessary, arbitrated in one proceeding. However, I agree that the Practice may, at the Practice’s sole discretion and in lieu of mediation or arbitration, file one or more actions in a court of appropriate jurisdiction to collect any fees owed by me to the Practice. The filing by the Practice to collect any fees from me shall not waive the Practice’s right to compel mediation and arbitration of any other Disputes.

  18. Mediation. Prior to either of us pursuing any Disputes either in arbitration or otherwise, we will voluntarily submit all Disputes (except to pursue injunctive relief) to voluntary Telehealth Informed Consent Page 1 non-binding mediation before a jointly selected neutral third-party JAMS or AAA mediator (“Mediation”). Mediation shall occur in Los Angeles County, California within sixty (60) days of either of us notifying the other party in writing of such dispute. The mediator’s fee shall be split equally between us; however, each of us shall pay the fees of our own attorneys and expenses of our own witnesses (if any).

  19. Arbitration. All Disputes that are not resolved by Mediation shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration except for Disputes that are expressly prohibited by applicable law from being subject to binding arbitration. Arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator before the J.A.M.S / Endispute or its successor (“JAMS”) in Tooele County, Utah. Except as provided otherwise herein or as may be required under applicable law for arbitrations involving health care providers, the arbitration shall be conducted under the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules, or equivalent rules in effect at the time the arbitration demand is filed (the “Rules”). The arbitrator shall be qualified by education, training, or experience to resolve the underlying Dispute(s). We shall first try to agree upon an arbitrator amongst ourselves; however, if unsuccessful after fourteen (14) calendar days, the arbitrator will be selected from an odd-numbered list of experienced arbitrators provided by JAMS with each of us striking one arbitrator from the list alternately until only one arbitrator remains. The arbitrator has the immunity of a judicial officer from civil liability when acting in the capacity of an arbitrator under this agreement. This immunity shall supplement and not supplant any other applicable statutory or common law immunity. As in any arbitration, the burden of proof shall be allocated as provided by applicable law. The arbitrator shall have all powers conferred by law and a judgment may be entered on the award by any court of law having jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall render a written arbitration award or decision that contains the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. Either of us may bring an action to confirm or enforce any arbitration award or orders in any state or federal court of competent jurisdiction. To the maximum extent permitted by law, the decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding on us and shall be subject to judicial review only to the extent provided by law. We shall be entitled to file dispositive motions before the arbitrator to the same extent as would be allowed had the dispute been heard in a court of law having jurisdiction over our claims or counterclaims. Depositions may be taken without prior approval of the arbitrator. We also both shall have the absolute right to arbitrate separately the issues of liability and damages upon written request to the arbitrator. We both consent to the intervention and joinder in any arbitration of any person or entity which would otherwise be a proper additional party in a court action, and, upon such intervention and joinder, any existing court action against such additional person or entity shall be stayed pending arbitration. The arbitrator is authorized to award such relief as would otherwise be permitted by law. The arbitrator is also authorized to award equitable relief, costs, attorneys’ fees, and expert witness fees and to allocate them among the parties as provided by law or the applicable JAMS rules for the particular claims asserted. Although, we agree that the arbitrator may not award punitive damages for any Dispute. The expenses and fees of the arbitration as well as the arbitrator shall be split equally between us or, in the event of an intervention or joinder by any third party, the split shall be a pro-rata split between all parties to the arbitration. Unless otherwise directed by the arbitrator, each party to the arbitration shall bear their own legal fees, witness fees (if any) or any other costs or expenses incurred by the party for such party’s own benefit in any arbitration. However, the prevailing party in any arbitration shall be entitled to its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs and necessary disbursements or expenses in addition to any other relief to which it may otherwise be entitled. Finally, we both agree that provisions of California.

  20. I acknowledge and agree that I am executing this agreement to arbitrate and mediate voluntarily and without any duress or undue influence by the Practice or anyone else. I also warrant that I have not relied on any oral representations relative to mediation or arbitrations that are not in writing and included in this agreement. Furthermore, I acknowledge and agree that I fully understand this agreement, including that: BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, I AM GIVING UP AND WAIVING ANY RIGHTS THAT I MAY HAVE TO TRIAL BY A JUDGE OR JURY WITH REGARD TO THE MATTERS WHICH ARE REQUIRED TO BE SUBMITTED TO MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION, INCLUDING ANY MALPRACTICE DISPUTES. FURTHERMORE, I ALSO UNDERSTAND, ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THERE IS NO RIGHT TO APPEAL OR A REVIEW OF AN ARBITRATOR’S AWARD AS THERE WOULD BE A JUDGE OR JURY’S DECISION.

  21. FINANCIAL AGREEMENT AND GUARANTEE. I accept full and complete financial responsibility for all medical services rendered to me and agree to pay for the services in full within 7 days of receiving testing. I further acknowledge, understand, and agree that in the event that I fail to make such payments in accordance with the payment policies of the Practice, or in the event of default of my financial obligation to pay for services rendered, the Practice may terminate the “doctor-patient” relationship with me. Furthermore, in the event of my default of my financial obligation, should my account be turned over to an external collection agency for non-payment, I agree to pay any associated collection costs.

  22. GOVERNING LAW. Except to the extent governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, this agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the State of California and without regard to its conflicts of laws provisions. I hereby expressly consent to the personal jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Santa Barbara Los Angeles, California, which shall have exclusive jurisdiction to adjudicate any dispute arising out of this agreement that is not otherwise governed by the arbitration provision herein.

  23. SEVERABILITY. The invalidity or unenforceability of any particular provision of this agreement shall not affect the other provisions hereof, all of which shall remain enforceable in accordance with their terms. If any of the provisions of this agreement or any part of any of them is hereafter construed or adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision (or portion thereof) will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible so as to effect our intent, and the remainder of this agreement will continue in full force and effect without regard to the invalid portions.

Telehealth Informed Consent

I, the undersigned, hereby give consent to SwiftDrip Mobile IV Hydration Inc. to perform intravenous vitamin and mineral therapy. I understand that intravenous nutrient therapy is not standard, widely approved or accepted for the purpose(s) of treatment or prevention of disease and the view that it is of benefit in the treatment of such disorders is accepted by a minority of the medical community and is considered "experimental" by most physicians. I am advised that other treatment approaches have been used in these conditions, including but not limited to prescription medications, over-the-counter drugs and nutritional supplements and these alternatives have been explained to my full satisfaction. I understand that the benefits of intravenous nutrient therapy are much greater if I follow a healthy lifestyle (non-smoking, weight control, proper exercise, proper diet and nutritional supplementation). I understand that an initial series of treatments are anticipated and that these treatments may extend over a number of weeks or months. I understand that it is my option to stop at any time with this treatment protocol without incurring any further expense after I have directed that such treatment be stopped. As with any other medical procedure, a small percentage of clients do not respond to this therapy. I have been informed of possible risks and side effects including but not limited to discomfort at the infection site, thrombophlebitis, fatigue, allergic reaction, congestive heart failure, lowering of blood sugar levels, fever, and chills and generalized complaints. I understand that this therapy should not be used if I am pregnant unless I have severe life threatening disease. I understand the nature of the proposed therapy and the risks and dangers have been explained to me to my full satisfaction. While I understand that there have been no warranties or guarantees of successful treatment made to me, I desire to undergo this treatment after having considered the information contained in this document, the information provided to me through conversations and materials that may be provided to me by the office to educate me about the treatment. I acknowledge that I have had the opportunity to ask questions and with respect to my proposed therapy and the treatments to be utilized and all my questions have been answered to my full satisfaction. My signature on this agreement will constitute a full and final release of any legal responsibility resulting from the administration of intravenous nutrient therapy in my case and/or any other medical treatments that may be necessary as a result thereof.
