(c) Manager shall be responsible for all property taxes and other assessments relating to or arising out of ownership or use of the FF&E.

3. Management Services and Administration. During the term of this Agreement, including all renewals and extensions hereof, BRMG engages manager to serve as its exclusive manager and administrator of the non-medical functions and services relating to the operation of the Practice at the Centers, and Manager agrees to furnish to BRMG all reasonably necessary non-medical management and administrative services as are agreed to by the parties from time to time, consistent with past practice. Said services shall be at the expense of Manager and shall include, but are not limited to:

BRMG shall at all times have responsibility for setting all fees for professional services provided by BRMG to patients of the Practice, provided that such fees shall be reasonable and customary for the community in which the Centers are operated. All ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ for services rendered to patients by the Practice shall be conducted by manager, and Manager shall act as BRMG’s agent in the preparation, rendering and collection of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. In this regard, BRMG hereby appoints Manager for the term of this Agreement to be its true and lawful attorney-in-fact, for the following purposes:
(i) to ▇▇▇▇ patients, insurance companies, managed care payors and other third-party payors in BRMG’s name and on its behalf;
(ii) to collect accounts receivable resulting from such billing in the name of BRMG and on its behalf;
(iii) to receive payments on behalf of BRMG from insurance companies, prepayments received from health care plans, Medicare, Medi-Cal, managed care payors and all other third-party payors;
(iv) to take possession of and endorse in the name of BRMG and deposit into Manager’s bank account (the “Deposit Account”) (and/or in the name of an individual physician, such payment intended for purposes of payment of professional fees related to BRMG) any notes, checks, money orders, insurance payments and other instruments received in payment of accounts receivable;
-3-
(v) upon the prior consent of BRMG, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, to initiate the institution of legal proceedings in the name of BRMG or any BRMG Personnel to collect any accounts and monies owed to BRMG or such BRMG Personnel, to enforce the rights of BRMG or such BRMG Personnel, as the case may be, as creditor under any contract or in connection with the rendering of any service, and to contest adjustments and denials by governmental agencies (or their fiscal intermediaries) as third-party payors; and
(vi) to deposit into the Deposit Account all revenue collected by Manager. BRMG covenants and shall cause all physician employees and independent contractors to covenant, to forward any payments received with respect to any revenues generated for services provided by BRMG or any of the BRMG Personnel to Manager for deposit.

Any action by BRMG that materially interferes with the operation of this Section, including, but not limited to, any failure to deposit or to have Manager deposit any revenues into the Deposit Account, any withdrawal of any funds from the Deposit Account not authorized by the express terms of this Agreement or any other written agreement executed by each of the parties, or any revocation of or attempt to revoke the Transfer Order (otherwise than upon expiration or termination of this Agreement), will constitute a breach of this Agreement and will entitle Manager, in addition to any other remedies it may have at law or in equity, to seek a court ordered assignment of the rights provided to Manager pursuant to this Subparagraph (a).
(b) Supervision and coordination of the day-to-day, non-medical business aspects of the Practice.
(c) The provision of all medical and office supplies required by BRMG in accordance with the operation of the Practice at the Centers, provided that Manager determines that such supplies can be obtained at reasonable cost within Manager’s budgetary constraints.

(h) All advertising, marketing and promotional activities conducted on behalf of the Practice, provided that Manager shall consult with BRMG prior to implementing any new advertising, marketing or promotional activities and BRMG’s approval shall be required before implementation which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld and shall be based on compliance with medical practice and ethical considerations.
(i) The parties hereby agree that the benefits to BRMG hereunder do not require, are not payment or compensation in cash or in kind for, and are not in any way contingent upon the referral or any other arrangement for the provision of any item or service offered by Manager to any of BRMG’s patients in any facility controlled, managed or operated by Manager.

BRMG shall, at its expense, employ or contract with an adequate number of licensed physicians (the “Practice Physicians”) which are necessary to provide professional services at the Centers (collectively, “BRMG Personnel”). The BRMG Personnel shall be personally present at the Centers to provide the hours of professional coverage each week during the term hereof that is required to adequately service BRMG’s Practice. If Manager reasonably determines that the physician coverage provided by BRMG is inadequate then Manager shall have the right to contract with non-BRMG Personnel to provide the necessary services.

All Manager Personnel shall be employees or contractors of Manager and Manager shall be responsible for the payment to all such persons of all compensation, including reasonable salary, fringe benefits, bonuses, health and disability

All BRMG Personnel shall be employees or contractors of BRMG, and BRMG shall be responsible for the payment to all such persons of all compensation, including reasonable salary, fringe benefits, bonuses, health and disability insurance, workers’ compensation insurance and any other benefits which BRMG may make available to its employees or contractors. Except as provided below, Manager shall have the sole responsibility of hiring and discharging, and supervising the non-medical functions of Manager Personnel. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Practice Physicians shall be solely responsible for the supervision of all medical functions and responsibilities performed by both the BRMG Personnel and the Manager Personnel and no Manager Personnel that substantially assist in the performance of professional services will be hired or fired by Manager without consultation with BRMG. However, final decision with respect to Manager Personnel employment decisions remains with Manager.

5. Term. Unless sooner terminated in accordance with this Agreement, this Agreement shall commence effective as of January 1, 2004 and shall continue in full force and effect for a term of ten (10) years thereafter. Thereafter this Agreement shall automatically renew for successive ten (10) year terms unless either party to this Agreement gives notice to the contrary to the other party, in the manner provided herein, at least six (6) months prior to the first or any subsequent renewal date.
6. Name. BRMG represents that it has no right, title or interest in the name, “Radnet”. BRMG agrees that it will not, either during the term of or after the termination of this Agreement for any reason, utilize the name, “Radnet”, or any similar name in any manner whatsoever.
7. Performance of Services.
(a) Manager is hereby expressly authorized by BRMG to perform all services required of Manager pursuant to the terms of this Agreement in the manner
-6-
Manager deems reasonable and appropriate in order to meet the day-to-day requirements of BRMG. BRMG acknowledges and agrees that Manager may subcontract with other persons or entities, including entities related to Manager by common ownership or control, to perform any part or all the services required of Manager hereunder.
(b) Each of the parties hereby agrees to cooperate fully with the other in connection with the performance of their respective obligations under this Agreement and both parties shall employ their best efforts to resolve any disputes that may arise under or in connection with this Agreement.
(c) Notwithstanding any other provisions contained herein, Manager shall not be liable to BRMG and shall not be deemed to be in default hereunder for the failure to perform or provide any of the supplies, services, personnel or other obligations to be performed or provided by Manager pursuant to this Agreement if such failure is a result of collective bargaining, a labor dispute, act(s) of God, or any other event which is beyond the reasonable control of Manager or which was not reasonably foreseeable by Manager.
8. Warranties and Covenants of BRMG.
(a) BRMG warrants and covenants that it shall not employ, contract or otherwise permit the BRMG Personnel (whether employees of BRMG or independent contractors) to engage in their respective professional practices at the Centers unless each such person is duly licensed to practice his or her profession within the State of California without restriction by any authorized federal, state or other regulatory or licensing agency, and is qualified and specialized in providing the services for which he or she is engaged by BRMG.
(b) BRMG warrants and covenants that each of the BRMG Personnel provided to the Centers shall (i) comply with all applicable governmental laws, regulations, ordinances and directives relating to his or her profession and (ii) perform his or her work and functions at all times in strict accordance with currently approved methods and practices in his or her field. All physician and other professional services rendered at the Centers shall be provided under the direct supervision and control of a Practice Physician provided by BRMG. In addition, BRMG warrants and covenants that none of the BRMG Personnel shall provide any services in the Centers after such person has been expelled from any recognized medical association or has had his or her medical staff membership or clinical privileges or like privileges, as applicable, terminated or restricted by the medical staff or governing board of any hospital in the county where any of the Centers are located for reasons involving moral turpitude or failure to conform to recognized or required ethics.
(c) BRMG represents and warrants to Manager that there are no facts, circumstances or conditions of which BRMG has knowledge which would prevent any of the Practice Physicians or the other Practice Professionals from practicing his or her
-7-
profession in the State of California or which would prevent or hinder any of the Practice Physicians or other Practice Professionals from conducting the Practice at the Centers.
9. Rental and Management Fee.
(a) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that Manager has incurred and will incur substantial costs and expenses in connection with the performance of its obligations and duties hereunder. The parties further acknowledge that certain of such costs and expenses can vary to a considerable degree according to the volume of activity at the Practice. The parties further agree that it will be impracticable to ascertain exactly all of the costs and expenses to be incurred by Manager in performing its obligations hereunder.
(b) BRMG and Manager therefore agree that Manager shall receive as compensation (the “Management Fee”) for the management services performed by Manager hereunder the use of the Centers, the use of the FF&E and all other services of Manager hereunder, a sum equal to seventy-four percent (74%) of the “Practice Billing Receipts” as and when collected by BRMG arising out of all professional and technical services rendered by or on behalf of BRMG commencing on and continuing after the effective date hereof to and including the date of termination hereunder for any reason, payable out of the first amounts collected with regard to any particular account. For purposes of the preceding sentence, the collection of the Practice Billing Receipts shall be deemed to occur at the time such amounts would be included in gross income by BRMG for federal income tax purposes, using the cash method of accounting. In no event shall payment to Manager of the Management Fee hereunder be interpreted or implied as permitting Manager to share in BRMG’s fees for professional services but is acknowledged as the negotiated fair market value compensation to Manager considering the scope of services and the business risks assumed by Manager. In this regard, the parties agree to meet and confer no more often than once each twelve (12) months to assess that the Management Fee continues to represent the fair market value of Manager’s services and the Management Fee shall be adjusted accordingly.
(c) For purposes of Paragraph 9(b), the term “Practice Billing Receipts” shall mean the gross amount collected by BRMG for professional services performed.
(d) On or before the twentieth (20th) day of each month following the date of this Agreement, Manager shall render a full and complete accounting to BRMG of all patient ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, receipts and aged accounts receivable for the preceding month. BRMG shall pay Manager the agreed upon monthly Management Fee within five (5) days after receipt of such monthly accounting from Manager.
(e) At the request of Manager, BRMG will utilize its accrued accounts receivable as a borrowing base against which Manager will be permitted to borrow from BRMG seventy-four percent (74%) or the agreed upon Manager’s annual percentage, if different. Manager shall repay to BRMG the amount so loaned from its portion
-8-
hereunder of the collection of the Practice Billing Receipts, as and when collected. In this regard, BRMG agrees that any obligation of Manager to BRMG as a result of the lending of funds by BRMG pursuant to this subparagraph is hereby subordinated to all other indebtedness, including the senior notes due 2008 (the “Notes”), if any, of Manager, whether heretofore, now or hereafter created, and BRMG agrees that any obligations of Manager to BRMG referred to in this sentence shall not be paid in whole or in part at any time during which a default or event of default under the Notes has occurred or is continuing until the Notes have been paid in full. BRMG agrees not to accept any payment in contravention of the foregoing.
10. Rights of Entry and Inspection.
(a) Any authorized representative of Manager shall have the right to enter the Center at all times for the purposes of inspection, making repairs, cleaning said premises or for any other reasonable purpose, provided, however, that any such entry by Manager shall not unreasonably interfere with the conduct of BRMG’s Practice at the Center.
(b) Manager shall have the right at any reasonable time to inspect and make copies of the books and records of BRMG relating to the conduct of the Practice at the Center, provided that the parties shall comply with all applicable patient record confidentiality requirements.
11. Rights of Manager upon Termination.
(a) In the event of the termination of this Agreement for any reason, including the breach hereof by either party, all of the provisions of this Paragraph 11 shall apply. BRMG shall vacate as soon as reasonably practical in order to protect the interest of patients of the practice and surrender to Manager possession of the Center Premises and the FF&E described in Paragraph 2 hereof, along with all other equipment, materials and supplies belonging to Manager. All fees, advances and other charges owed to Manager that have accrued but are unpaid as of the date of termination (“Unpaid Fees”) shall, subject to the provisions of Paragraph 12(e) hereof, become immediately due and payable by BRMG to Manager. The Manager’s Fee shall continue to accrue as to receipts from services rendered to or on behalf of BRMG to and including the effective date of termination of this Agreement notwithstanding any such termination and shall survive such termination and be paid as provided in Paragraph 9(d) hereof. Failure to remit all Unpaid Fees pursuant to this Paragraph 11 or future Management Fees as they accrue shall constitute a default under this Agreement and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the payment of interest as provided herein shall not excuse BRMG for its failure to pay in a timely manner. BRMG shall, unless the insurance that it carried pursuant to the requirements of Paragraph 14 hereof was occurrence coverage and was continuously in effect, obtain “tail” coverage at the expense of and in such form and amounts as Manager shall reasonably demand, with regard to all of the Practice at the Centers naming Manager as an additional insured thereunder. BRMG shall, upon the request of Manager, enter into negotiations with such physicians, medical partnerships or
-9-
medical corporations as may be specified by Manager, for the sale of all patient medical charts and records of BRMG to such other physicians, medical partnerships or medical corporations after BRMG’s withdrawal from such premises, such sale to be at a price determined by agreement between BRMG and such buyer or by an appraiser selected by them or selected by arbitration; provided that such arrangement shall provide for BRMG’s access and right to copy records for lawful purposes in compliance with applicable laws and “tail” insurance coverage.

Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to permit Manager to engage in the practice of medicine, it being the sole intention of the parties hereto that the services to be rendered to BRMG by Manager are solely for the purpose of providing personnel and non-medical management and administrative services to BRMG. Manager shall have no authority or responsibility for any medical act or professional policy, act, decision or function of BRMG. Manager shall neither have nor exercise any direction or control over the methods by which BRMG performs its professional activities.
17. Destruction of Center Premises. If the Center Premises are destroyed or damaged to the extent that BRMG cannot use them to conduct the Practice, Manager may, without terminating this Agreement, restore the Center Premises at Manager’s sole cost and expense. In the event that Manager does not elect, within thirty (30) days following the date of the destruction of or damage to the Center Premises, to exercise such right of restoration, then either party may terminate this Agreement upon notice to the other party. In the event that Manager elects to restore the Center Premises, then Manager shall have the right to relocate the Practice in temporary offices pending such restoration and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect while the Center Premises are being restored with no abatement in any Management Fee or any other payment to be made by BRMG to Manager hereunder.

18. Dispute Resolution.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if the parties hereto are unable, after good faith negotiations, which each hereby covenants to undertake, to resolve any and all disputes arising out of, relating to or in connection with this Agreement, including, without limitation, in respect to the formation of this Agreement, or the construction or interpretation of this Agreement, either party may commence arbitration by sending a written demand for arbitration to the other party, in accordance with Paragraph 20(d) hereof. Such demand shall set forth with particularity and with supporting detail or documentation the dispute or matter to be resolved by arbitration.
(b) There shall be one arbitrator. If the parties shall fail to select a mutually acceptable arbitrator within ten (10) days after the demand for arbitration is mailed, a single arbitrator shall be appointed as soon as possible by the American Arbitration Association in Los Angeles, California or failing such appointment, pursuant to the usual procedure of said Association in such cases. The fee payable to the arbitrator shall be based upon the then current fee schedule of the American Arbitration Association and shall be advanced one-half (1/2) by each party, upon the written request of the arbitrator.
(c) The parties shall have the rights of discovery as provided for in Part 4 of the California Code of Civil Procedure and as provided for in Section 1283.05 of said Code.
(d) Except as set forth herein, the arbitrator shall conduct the arbitration according to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Arbitration shall take place in Los Angeles, California unless the parties otherwise agree. The arbitrator shall base the decision on the express language of this Agreement. Within ten (10) days after the arbitrator is appointed, or as soon thereafter as shall be reasonably practicable a hearing with respect to the dispute or matter to be resolved shall be conducted by the arbitrator. Each party may make written submissions to the arbitrator, and each party shall have a reasonable opportunity for rebuttal. As soon as reasonably practicable, but not later than thirty (30) days after the hearing is completed, the arbitrator shall arrive at a final decision, which shall be reduced to writing, signed by the arbitrator and mailed to each of the parties and their legal counsel.
(e) All decisions of the arbitrator shall be final, binding and conclusive as to both parties, and shall constitute the only method of resolving disputes or matters subject to arbitration pursuant to this Agreement. Judgment may be entered upon such decision in accordance with applicable law in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
-15-
(f) This arbitration clause and all rulings or decisions of the arbitrator shall be specifically enforceable in a court of law.
(g) Notwithstanding any provision of this Paragraph 18, the parties hereto reserve the right to seek interim relief in any court of competent jurisdiction before or during the pendency of any arbitration hereunder.
19. Further Center Locations and Restrictions.
(a) Should BRMG determine at any time to establish any other locations for the practice of medicine, Manager shall have the option of providing space and services therefor under the same terms and conditions as set forth herein. Manager may exercise such option by notice to BRMG in the manner provided herein. Upon the giving of such notice, the definition of “Centers” and “Center Premises” in Paragraph 1 hereof will automatically be deemed amended to include such new location or locations. Should Manager not exercise such option, then BRMG shall be obligated to negotiate in good faith at the request of Manager, toward an amendment of this Agreement or an additional agreement under which Manager would provide space, equipment, furniture, furnishings and services to BRMG at such location. If such negotiations are not successful, then BRMG may negotiate with other parties for the provision of some or all of such services but Manager shall have a right of first refusal to provide such services as BRMG shall propose to obtain from any other party. If Manager determines to establish a new location, then BRMG shall use its best efforts to provide the professional staff required at such location under the same terms and conditions as set forth herein. If BRMG cannot staff such facility, then Manager may contract with non-BRMG Personnel to provide the necessary services.
(b) During the term of this Agreement, BRMG shall not, without the prior written consent of Manager, (i) establish, operate or provide professional radiology or diagnostic services at any medical office, practice or other health care facility (other than a Center) providing services similar to those provided by BRMG or enter into an agreement with any third party payor to provide such services at any facility other than a Center, (ii) enter into any other management or administrative services agreement or other arrangement with any other person or entity (other than with Manager) for purposes of obtaining management, administrative or other support services or (iii) engage or participate in any business which engages in competition with the business conducted by Manager anywhere within fifteen (15) miles of any location at which Manager conducts business.
(c) During the term of this Agreement and for twenty-four (24) months following the termination of this Agreement, BRMG shall not, without the prior written consent of Manager (i) directly or indirectly recruit or hire, or induce any party to recruit or hire, any person who is an employee of, or who has entered into an independent contractor arrangement with, Manager or its affiliates; (ii) directly or indirectly, whether for itself or for any other person or entity, call upon, solicit, divert or take away, or
-16-
attempt to solicit, call upon, divert or take away any customers, business or clients of Manager or its affiliates; (iii) directly or indirectly solicit, or induce any party to solicit, any contractors of Manager or its affiliates, to enter into the same or a similar type of contract with any other party; or (iv) disrupt, damage, impair or interfere with the business of Manager or its affiliates.
(d) If this Agreement is terminated, then if BRMG establishes, operates or provides professional services at any office, practice, diagnostic imaging center, hospital or other health care facility providing services substantially similar to those provided by BRMG or Manager pursuant to this Agreement anywhere within fifteen (15) miles of any location of any Center, BRMG or any successor thereto shall engage Manager as the sole and exclusive manager and administrator of the nonprofessional functions and services of such other office, practice, hospital or health care facility on the same terms and conditions as contained herein.
(e) BRMG recognizes the proprietary interest of Manager and its affiliates in any confidential and proprietary information (as hereafter defined). BRMG acknowledges and agrees that any and all Confidential and Proprietary Information of Manager or its affiliates (“Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information”) communicated to, learned of, developed or otherwise acquired by BRMG during the term of this Agreement shall be the property of Manager or its affiliates. BRMG further acknowledges and understands that its disclosure of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information will result in irreparable injury and damage to Manager or its affiliates. As used herein, “Confidential and Proprietary Information” means all trade secrets and other confidential and/or proprietary information of Manager or its affiliates, including information derived from reports, investigations, research, work in progress, codes, marketing and sales programs, financial projections, cost summaries, pricing formulae, contract analyses, financial information, projections, confidential filings with any state or federal agency and all other confidential concepts, methods of doing business, ideas, materials or information (other than BRMG’s patient medical records) prepared or performed for, by or on behalf of the parties hereto by its employees, officers, directors, agents, representatives or consultants. Confidential and Proprietary Information shall not include any information which (i) was known to BRMG prior to its disclosure by Manager or its affiliates; (ii) is or becomes publicly known through no wrongful act of BRMG or any of its employees; or (iii) is disclosed pursuant to a statute, regulation or the order of a court of competent jurisdiction, provided that BRMG provides prior notice to Manager.
(f) BRMG acknowledges and agrees that Manager and its affiliates are entitled to prevent the disclosure of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information. BRMG agrees at all times during the term of this Agreement and thereafter to hold in strictest confidence and not to disclose to any person, firm or corporation, except as may be necessary for the discharge of its obligations under this Agreement, and not to use, except in the pursuit of the business of BRMG or Manager, Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information, without the prior written consent of Manager and its affiliates, unless (i) such information becomes known or available to the public
-17-
generally through no wrongful act of BRMG or its employees or (ii) disclosure is required by law or the rule, regulation or order of any governmental authority under color of law; provided, that prior to disclosing any of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information pursuant to this clause (ii), BRMG shall, if possible, give prior written notice thereof to Manager and its affiliates and provide such parties with the opportunity to contest such disclosure. BRMG shall take all necessary and proper precautions against disclosure of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information to unauthorized persons by any of its partners, officers, directors, employees or agents. All partners, officers, directors, employees and agents of BRMG who will have access to all or any part of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information will be required to execute an agreement upon request, valid under the law of the jurisdiction in which such agreement is executed, and in a form acceptable to Manager and its affiliates and their counsel, committing themselves to maintain Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information in strict confidence and not to disclose it to any unauthorized person or entity. Upon termination of this Agreement for any reason, BRMG and its employees and independent contractors shall cease all use of any of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information and shall execute such documents as may be reasonably necessary to evidence their abandonment of any claim thereto.
(g) In the event of any termination of this Agreement for any reason whatsoever, or at any time upon the request of Manager or its affiliates, BRMG will promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to Manager and its affiliates all documents, data and other information in its possession that contains any of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information. BRMG shall not take or retain any documents or other information, or any reproduction or excerpt thereof, containing any of Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information, unless otherwise authorized in writing by Manager. In the event of termination of this Agreement, BRMG will deliver to Manager and its affiliates all documents and data pertaining to Manager’s Confidential and Proprietary Information.

EXHIBIT A
EXHIBIT B
BUSINESS ASSOCIATE/CHAIN OF TRUST AGREEMENT
THIS BUSINESS ASSOCIATE/CHAIN OF TRUST AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is entered into by and between Radnet Management, Inc. a California corporation (“Radnet”) and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Radiology Medical Group, a California partnership of professional corporations (“BRMG”) and is effective as of January 1, 2004 (the “Effective Date”).
Radnet and BRMG have entered into this Agreement to comply with the Health Insurance Portability and accountability Act of 1996 and the federal HIPAA privacy regulations.
Radnet, as a contractor of BRMG, regularly has access to certain patient health information.
Both parties have determined it is in their respective interests to comply with such rules and regulations as required by law in order to ensure the confidentiality and integrity of protected health information (“Protected Health Information”).
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agrees as follows:
| 1. | PERMITTED USES AND DISCLOSURES OF PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION. |
Radnet provides services for BRMG that involve the use and disclosure of Protected Health Information. Radnet may use and/or disclose such Protected Health Information as necessary to perform its obligations for BRMG, provided that such use or disclosure shall be only (i) to its employees, subcontractors or agents as provided in this Agreement or as otherwise required by law; (ii) as directed by BRMG; or (iii) as required to be disclosed by law, provided that BRMG will promptly notify Radnet of such obligation. Unless otherwise limited herein Radnet may:
a. use the Protected Health Information in its possession for its proper management and administration and to fulfill any present or future legal responsibilities provided that such uses are permitted under state and federal confidentiality laws.
b. disclose the Protected Health Information in its possession to third parties for the purpose of its proper management and administration or to fulfill any present or future legal responsibilities of Radnet, provided that (i) the disclosures are required by law or (ii) Radnet has received from the third party reasonable assurances regarding the confidential handling of such Protected Health Information as required under HIPAA.
EXHIBIT B
c. aggregate the Protected Health Information in its possession with the Protected Health Information of other covered entitles that Radnet has in its possession through the capacity as a business associate to said other covered entities, provided that the purpose of such aggregation is to provide BRMG with data analysis relating to the health care operations of BRMG. Under no circumstances may Radnet disclose Protected Health Information of one covered entity to another covered entity absent the explicit authorization of BRMG.
| 2. | RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES |
Responsibilities of Radnet. With regard to its use and/or disclosure of Protected Health Information obtained from BRMG, Radnet hereby agrees to:
a. use and/or disclose the Protected Health Information only as permitted or required by this Agreement or as otherwise required by law.
b. use appropriate safeguards to maintain the security of the Protected Health Information and to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of such Protected Health Information, which will in no event be any less than the means which Radnet uses to protect its own confidential information.
c. report to BRMG any use and/or disclosure of the Protected Health Insurance that is not permitted by this Agreement.
d. require all of its subcontractors, agents and employees that receive, use or have access to Protected Health Insurance under this Agreement to agree, in writing, to adhere to the same restrictions and conditions on the use and/or disclosure of Protected Health Information that apply to Radnet.
e. make available all records, books agreements, policies and procedures relating to the use and/or disclosure of Protected Health Information to the Secretary of HHS for purposes of determining BRMG’s compliance with HIPAA, subject to attorney-client and other applicable legal privileges.
f. provide to BRMG such information as is reasonably requested and necessary to permit them to respond to a request by an individual for an accounting of the disclosures of the individual’s Protected Health Information in accordance with HIPAA.
g. notify BRMG, as soon as reasonably practical, after it learns of a legal obligation to disclose any Protected Health Information, and in any event within a time sufficiently in advance of the proposed release date such that BRMG’s rights would not be prejudiced.
h. return to BRMG or destroy or erase at BRMG’s discretion all of BRMG’s confidential information in tangible form, upon the expiration or termination of this Agreement, and Radnet will promptly certify in writing to BRMG that it has done so.
EXHIBIT B
Responsibilities of BRMG. With regard to the use and/or disclosure of Protected Health Insurance by Radnet, BRMG agrees:
a. to obtain all necessary consents or authorizations that may be required by HIPAA or applicable state law prior to furnishing Radnet with Protected Health Information.
b. to inform Radnet of any changes in the form of notice of privacy practices that BRMG provides to individuals and to provide Radnet a copy of the notice currently in use.
c. to timely notify Radnet, in writing, of any arrangements permitted or required of BRMG that may impact, in any manner, the use and/or disclosure of Protected Health Information by Radnet under this Agreement.
| 4. | TERMS AND TERMINATION OF AGREEMENT |
Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the Effective Date and shall continue in effect until all obligations of the parties have been met, unless terminated as provided in this section. In addition, certain provisions and requirements of this Agreement shall survive its expiration or other termination in accordance with the survival provision herein.
Termination by the Covered Entity. BRMG may terminate the Agreement if it determines that Radnet has breached a material term of this Agreement, which breach has not been cured within thirty (30) days of written notice from BRMG to Radnet of such breach.
Effect of Termination. Upon the event of expiration or termination, Radnet agrees to promptly return to BRMG, or at BRMG’s sole option, destroy any Protected Health Information then in its possession or control and will retain no copies of such Protected Health Information, and, unless otherwise expressly agreed to in writing, any right or license which Radnet has to use the Protected Health Information will terminate immediately upon such expiration or termination of the Agreement. Prior to doing so, Radnet further agrees to recover any Protected Health Information in the possession of its subcontractors or agents. If it is not feasible for Radnet to return or destroy said Protected Health Information, Radnet will notify BRMG in writing. Said notification shall include: (i) a statement that Radnet has determined that it is not feasible to return or destroy the Protected Health Information in its possession and (ii) the specific reasons for such determination. Radnet further agrees to extend any and all protections, limitations and restrictions contained in this Agreement to Radnet’s use and/or disclosure of any Protected Health Information retained after the termination of this Agreement and to limit any further uses and/or disclosures to the purposes that make the return or destruction of the Protected Health Information not feasible.
EXHIBIT B
| 5. | EFFECT OF CHANGES OF HIPAA PRIVACY REGULATION ON RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES |
To the extent that any relevant provision of HIPAA is materially amended in a manner that changes the obligations of business associates or covered entities that are embodied in the term(s) of this Agreement, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith appropriate non-financial terms or amendment(s) to this Agreement to give effect to such revised obligations. In addition, the terms of this Agreement should be construed in light of any interpretation and/or guidance on HIPAA issued by HHS from time to time.
| 6. | LIMITATION OF LIABILITY |
Neither party shall be liable to the other party for any incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages of any kind or nature, whether such liability is asserted on the basis of contract, tort (including negligence or strict liability), or otherwise, even if the other party has been advised on the possibility of such loss or damages.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the undersigned has caused this Agreement to be duly executed in its name and on its behalf as of the Effective Date written above.
