IV.FEES AND PAYMENTS

 

1.Forecasting
   
a.Augmedix shall deliver to Service Provider a monthly forecast setting forth the estimated number of new users it will need to Service Provider to service each month (“Forecast”). Service Provider shall use the Forecast to assess its staffing needs and to ensure it is able to service its assigned Users. Augmedix will use commercially reasonable efforts to adhere to its Forecast, but such Forecast is subject to modification.
   
2.Monthly Invoicing
   
a.No later than [***] after the end of a given month, Service Provider will provide Augmedix with an invoice for Services rendered to Augmedix in the prior month in conformance with the compensation terms set forth in Section IV.3 below.

c.Performance Specialists. Each calendar month during the Term, Augmedix will pay Service Provider a flat fee of US$[***] per month (prorated for partial months) for each full-time Performance Specialist who provides training and feedback to Scribes during the prior calendar month, provided that the PS is requested and approved by Augmedix. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent an approved PS works as both a Scribe and PS during a particular month, PS compensation shall be prorated for the time period during which such individual serves as a PS.

 

V.Change Management Process

 

Any changes to the procedures and production related processes in this SOW No. 3 (each a “Change”) shall follow the process described in this Section (the “Change Management Process”). A Change must be proposed in writing by one party to the other party at least two (2) weeks in advance of the date the proposing party desires for such Change to take effect. The parties will confer on such proposed Change until the parties reach mutual agreement in writing as to the nature and effective date of such Change, provided that Augmedix shall have the sole discretion to accept or reject a proposed Change if the parties cannot reach mutual agreement on the nature and timing of such Change within two (2) weeks of the Change first being proposed. For the avoidance of doubt, if Augmedix proposes a Change using the above process and Service Provider does not respond to such Change within two (2) weeks, then the Change is deemed accepted by Service Provider.

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO AUGMEDIX, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

5. Service Expectations and Requirements

 

It is expected that the Service Provider will take a proactive approach to supporting Augmedix and will provide the highest level of customer service and technical support. Both robust service and technology go hand-in-hand and are fundamental requirements for the Augmedix service.

 

5.1 Proactive Notifications

 

Augmedix expects to be notified proactively, per the priority definitions, in the event of any network and/or system issues that impact Scribe operations including planned downtime (maintenance).

 

5.2 Technical Expertise

 

Augmedix expects Service Provider’s technical/IT team to have superior technical expertise in network and system configuration, design, maintenance and troubleshooting as well as application installation, maintenance, and upgrades. Competency in both hardware and software is required.

 

5.3 Training

 

It is the responsibility of Service Provider to train its technical/IT staff on the tools, technologies and processes required for the support of the Augmedix service and scribe operations.

 

5.4 Documentation

 

All infrastructure and system specifications, configurations and processes must be documented and made available to Augmedix. These documents must be reviewed with Augmedix once a quarter.

 

5.5 Service Testing and Validation

 

In the event Augmedix needs support to validate a new service/application, Service Provider must make resources available to validate and share the results within the shared/expected timeline.

 

5.6 Monitoring Workstation Availability

CERTAIN CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION CONTAINED IN THIS DOCUMENT, MARKED BY [*], HAS BEEN OMITTED BECAUSE IT IS NOT MATERIAL AND WOULD LIKELY CAUSE COMPETITIVE HARM TO AUGMEDIX, INC. IF PUBLICLY DISCLOSED.

 

6. Service Change Management

 

Any planned changes to the state of Augmedix’s production scribe services, including hardware, software, networks and facilities must go through a process of change impact analysis, review and approval prior to implementation.  Each change must follow the Change Management Process outlined in Section V of the SOW.

 

Any failure on the part of Service Provider to follow the Change Management Process will be considered a “Breach of Process” for which Service Provider must provide proper justification.  Augmedix may audit any changes to verify the requests.

 

7. Service Escalation Management

 

All critical and high-priority incidents (defined below) resulting in the loss of service must immediately trigger the creation of a war-room by the Service Provider and the involvement of the Service Provider and Augmedix technical teams to facilitate the discussion of outstanding issues and satisfactory resolution and closure of the ticket(s):

 

  Interruption making a critical functionality inaccessible or a complete network interruption causing a severe impact on services availability.

 

  Critical functionality or network access interrupted, degraded or unusable, having a severe impact on services availability.

 

In order to facilitate the management of escalated incidents, the Service Provider must provide to Augmedix a tiered Escalation Matrix that must include the name of the individual, phone number, email, and conditions under which an incident will be escalated up the management chain.

 

8. Service Security

 

Service Provider is expected to make sure that critical network infrastructure, systems, applications and scribe operations have all the necessary security controls in place for a safe and secure operating environment. Adherence to the compliance, security and privacy requirements set forth in the Operational Requirements for Service Providers (“ORSV”) document is mandatory.

8.1 ORSV Audits

 

Augmedix or its designee shall have the right to audit, monitor, and verify Service Provider’s compliance with the ORSV. Augmedix may perform two such audits per twelve (12) month period; provided, however, Augmedix may perform additional audits in response to specific security or privacy incidents or identified gaps in compliance with the ORSV. Augmedix will bear the cost of two planned audits per year. The cost of any additional audits conducted in response to specific security incidents, privacy incidents or identified gaps in compliance will be borne by the Scribe Partner.

 

Should Augmedix determine in its sole discretion, that Service Provider has failed to adhere to the requirements of the ORSV, Service Provider must successfully remediate any compliance deficiencies to the satisfaction of Augmedix within (10) business days of written notice of such deficiencies.  If Service Provider fails to remediate deficiencies within the time period prescribed above, or the deficiency is a repeat violation of the same ORSV requirement, Service Provider shall provide Augmedix a credit against Service Provider’s monthly invoice for that month in the amount of up to US$[***] (at Augmedix’s sole discretion) for each day that the deficiencies remain unresolved and/or repeat violations.  Further, Augmedix, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to remove Service Provider from its existing Accounts, or withhold the assignment of new Accounts to Scribe Partner until all deficiencies are resolved to the satisfaction of Augmedix.

 

9. Service Support Availability

 

Technical support coverage must align with the Provider schedules that the Service Provider is servicing. Such schedules will be documented in a Single Source of Truth (example: Humanity) for production service availability. In addition, Augmedix may require the availability of the technical/IT support staff during maintenance and/or test windows. Such requests will be made at least 2 business days in advance.

 

10. Service Maintenance and Outages

 

All service maintenance must be performed during scheduled maintenance windows. These activities will render systems and/or applications unavailable for scribe operations at the agreed-upon locations and for the defined time windows. The change management process applies to un-planning service outages as well.  In addition, each service disruption/outage must be followed by a Root Cause Analysis/Post-Mortem Report within [***] of resolution of the outage.  

 

In the event of an outage, Service Provider must notify Augmedix within 5 minutes of such occurrence. Thereafter, Service Provider must provide an intermediate progress update to Augmedix every 15 minutes until the issue is resolved.

 

11. Service Reporting

 

Augmedix expects the Service Provider to present the following reports:

 

  1. Service uptime (and downtime) – Monthly
     
  2. Service outages – Monthly
     
  3. Root Cause Analysis (RCA)/Post- Mortem Report – within 48 hours

12. Service Exceptions

 

Any deviations from agreed upon policies and processes must be brought up in advance for review and approval in accordance with the defined Change Management Process.

 

13. Service Incentives/Penalties

 

Should Service Provider fail to meet the requirements and benchmarks set forth in this Technology SLA and the Scribe Operation Technology Requirements, Augmedix in its sole discretion reserves the right to remove Service Provider from its existing Accounts or withhold the assignment of new Accounts to Service Provider (even if Augmedix has purchased Scribing Services for a designated number of Users in the applicable Purchase Orders) until all deficiencies are resolved to the satisfaction of Augmedix.

 

14. Priority Level Definitions

 

To create clear expectations, Augmedix defines priority levels based on the criticality of its function.  The priority levels, including resolution, response and update interval timelines are set forth in the table below:

 

Priority Name Description Resolution First Response Time Intermediate Update Interval
P1 Critical Interruption making a critical functionality inaccessible or a complete network interruption causing a severe impact on services availability. 1 hour or less 5 mins or less 15 mins
P2 High Critical functionality or network access interrupted, degraded or unusable, having a severe impact on services availability. 2 hours 15 mins or less 30 mins
P3 Medium Non critical function or procedure, unusable or hard to use, having an operational impact but with no direct impact on services availability. 8 hours 30 mins or less 4 hours
P4 Low Application or personal procedure unusable, where a workaround is available, or a repair is possible. 24 hours 1 hour or less N/A
P5 Request General service request 48 hours 4 hours or less N/A

 

Service Provider shall make every attempt to meet the restoration targets listed above.  Incidents shall be deemed “restored” when Augmedix reasonably determines that Service Provider has provided a suitable resolution, solution, or work-around for the incident.  Suitable shall mean that the resolution, solution or work-around does not materially impact Augmedix ability to provide its Services.
