2. CustomerS
To be a healthcare professional using the Site (“Customer”) you agree to comply with all laws, medical board rules and other rules and regulations applicable to you as a Customer or otherwise. Your relationship with the AZOVA users (including your patients) is directly between you and the patient. The patient will never have a physician-patient relationship with AZOVA. AZOVA does not practice medicine and offers no medical services. As set forth more fully in Section 10, Customer is solely responsible for all agreements, consents, notices and other interactions with patients and other consumers.

3. Medical Judgment and Indemnification
Customer will use the Site and Services only in accordance with applicable standards of good medical practice. Customer is fully and solely responsible for compliance with all medical practice rules, including state and federal laws, as well as prescribing rules. While software products such as the Site and Services can facilitate and improve the quality of service that Customer and its personnel offer to patients, many factors, including the provider/patient relationship can affect a patient outcome, and with intricate and interdependent technologies and complex decision-making it is often difficult or impossible to accurately determine what the factors were and in what proportion they affected an outcome. As a result of the complexities and uncertainties inherent in the patient care process, Customer agrees to defend, indemnify and hold AZOVA harmless from any claim by or on behalf of any patient of Customer or its personnel, or by or on behalf of any other third party or person claiming damage by virtue of a familial or financial relationship with such a patient, or by any third party whatsoever (including state and federal agencies) which is brought against AZOVA, regardless of the cause if such claim arises for any reason whatsoever, out of the use or operation of the Site and Services. This indemnification includes Customer’s noncompliance with any and all insurance contracts or coverage, payment or reimbursement laws, rules and regulations. To the extent applicable, Customer will obtain AZOVA’s prior written consent to any settlement or judgment in which Customer agrees to any finding of fault of AZOVA or defect in the Site or Services. AZOVA will promptly notify Customer in writing of any claim subject to this indemnification, promptly provide Customer with the information reasonably required for the defense of the same, and grant to Customer exclusive control over its defense and settlement.
