|
b)
|
The Provider Service Agreement, as amended, shall apply to and bind each and all of the HealthSmart Entities. By executing this Amendment, Parent accepts and ratifies such agreement, as amended, on behalf of itself and all Affiliated Entities, as defined in Exhibit A.

|
3)
|
Section 3 of the First Amendment is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:
|
|
a)
|
A fee (the “Service Fee”) payable to HSPC is designed to reimburse and compensate HSPC for the work that it is required to perform to support the ACS program. This includes, but is not limited to marketing support, electronic claims conversion for the benefit of this program, the transmission of those claims to ACS, the receipt of those claims from ACS, and the transmission and tracking of the claims to the HSPC client payors.

|
c)
|
When calculating Paid Claim Volume for purposes of the Service Fee, ACS may exclude paid claims in those cases where the amount paid to ACS is less than the sum of (i) the corresponding provider cost and (ii) any administrative fee paid to HealthSmart. However, such claims will also be excluded for purposes of calculating the targets established in the table provided in Subsection d below.
|
d)
|
The Service Fee, which is calculated based on paid claims, will be reset annually beginning with the twelve months beginning June 30, 2009 (hereinafter, the “Reset Date”, which date may change in accordance with Section 3h of this Agreement), according to the following schedule:

|
Less than [***]
|
[***]
|
e)
|
If there is a significant reduction in HSPC covered or managed lives, the fees will be revisited by both parties.
|
f)
|
If this arrangement is found in any way to violate any federal or state regulations, both parties agree that they will use their best efforts to negotiate a revision that is acceptable to each party.
|
g)
|
The Service Fee shall not exceed [***] per annum (the “Capped Amount”).
|
(h)
|
The Reset Date shall become March 31, 2009 immediately (and retroactively in arrears if appropriate) and the relevant Service Fee shall adjust downward as of March 31, 2009 in accordance with the above schedule as if June 30 were March 31 upon either of the following:
|
i)
|
Any failure to satisfy any covenant, condition or warranty in any agreement relating to Indebtedness of HSPC or any HSPC Entity, whether or not such failure results in an event of default; or
|
|
ii)
|
If the Paid Claim Volume is less than [***] for the quarter ending-March 31, 2009.
|
|
iii)
|

In addition, HSPC shall provide a copy of its annual audit report for each year of the remainder of the contract term within 30 days of its issuance by HSPC’s independent auditors.
|
4)
|
ACS warrants that it will provide the same level of discounts to HealthSmart Entities that it provides other clients for similar products and levels of support.
|
5)
|
Each of HSPC and Parent represents and warrants to ACS that it does not control, is not controlled by and is not under common control with (in each case directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries) any person other than the Affiliated Entities, as defined in Exhibit A.
|
6)
|
The parties will jointly develop a strategic contracting plan (the “Project Plan”) that will define a list of targeted providers and timetables for ACS/HSPC contracting efforts pursuant to the Provider Service Agreement, as amended. The Project Plan will be mutually agreed upon no later than January 15, 2009. HSPC agrees to devote necessary internal contracting resources to the development of the Project Plan. In addition, each of ACS and HSPC will dedicate a named point person who will devote substantially all of their time to the ACS/HSPC contracting efforts and the ongoing management of the relationship between ACS and HSPC by January 15, 2009.
The Project Plan will also include the following provisions:
|
a)
|
ACS will be the outsourced ancillary contracting and network management provider for HealthSmart’s group health clients, any Third Party Administrators (“TPAs”) currently owned by or affiliated with HealthSmart (including American Administrative Group
|
(AAG)) and any entities, including any primary PPO networks and any TPAs, that may be controlled by (in each case directly or indirectly whether or not through one or more intermediaries) HSPC at any time in the future and with respect to which the ACS model could be deployed; provided, however, that HealthSmart payors who are not accessing a HealthSmart network as their primary PPO shall not be covered by this provision.
|
i)
|
HealthSmart will give ACS the rights of first refusal to add ancillary providers to the network.
|
ii)
|
HealthSmart will not pursue ancillary contracts for its group health business and TPAs, except through the Provider Services Agreement, as amended, and the Project Plan.
|
|
iii)
|
ACS and HealthSmart will jointly develop network service standards, and hereby agree to be bound by such standards, that will define the coverage and response necessary to meet the demands of HealthSmart.
|
iv)
|
The provisions of this Amendment will have no binding effect on HealthSmart’s routine hospital and physician contracting.
|
b)
|
HSPC contracting staff will notify targeted contracted ancillary providers that HSPC has engaged ACS to be the contracted ancillary management vendor for HealthSmart Entities. Access to the HealthSmart group health lines of business can only occur through a direct contract with ACS, provided that the ACS discounts are equal to or greater than HSPC network discounts currently in force.
|
i)
|
HSPC will support the ACS contracting efforts through both written and verbal confirmation that ACS is the outsourced group health ancillary network for HealthSmart Entities.
|
ii)
|
HSPC will stop using a non-participating provider for any HealthSmart Entity if the ACS network is able to provide substitute coverage for the same service with quality standards and economics that satisfy either the same standards applied to the current providers or substantially similar standards actually applied to the current providers within the same geographic area.
|
c)
|
HSPC and the HealthSmart Entities will support the ACS ancillary network with its payors through joint sales efforts and communication to these payors about the benefits of the ACS network.
|
i)
|
If a HealthSmart Payor is not participating with the ACS program, they can be excluded on a case by case basis from the ACS network requirement.
|
ii)
|
ACS and HSPC will work together to develop a consistent provider and payor notification plan to support the contracting efforts.
|
7)
|
HSPC agrees to include the ACS logo on all cards issued by it or any other HealthSmart Entity to members that are or could be eligible for the ACS network. In addition, HSPC agrees to re-issue, by June 30, 2009 all cards previously issued to members that are eligible for the ACS network with replacement cards including the ACS logo.
|
a)
|
The ACS logo will be displayed in a mutually agreeable fashion, subordinated to the Health Smart and/or payor logos, as applicable.
|
b)
|
This will only apply where HealthSmart is responsible for producing the cards.
|
|
c)
|
The program will be initiated no later than March 31, 2009, with cards being issued by June 30, 2009.
|
d)
|
HSPC will be responsible for the reasonable incremental cost of issuing and reissuing cards as described above. This includes the cost of adding the logo to the card and printing and mailing the card.
|
8)
|
The ACS logo will also be included in the member directories, with the providers identified as an ACS provider. This will be done in a mutually agreeable fashion, subordinated to the Health Smart logos as appropriate.
|
a)
|
The directory will include any web based or internet accessed directories prepared for participating HSPC members or companies.
|
b)
|
HSPC will be responsible for the reasonable incremental cost of preparing the member directories as described above. This includes the cost of adding the logo to the directories and printing and mailing the directories, if applicable.
|
9)
|
The parties further agree to use good faith efforts to cooperate on a number of projects the parties have identified to be mutually beneficial. Such projects include but are not limited to the Anci-Select, Anci-Concierge, and Anci-Card programs currently under development by ACS.
|
10)
|
In the case of any disputes or issues that may arise in connection with the respective rights and/or obligations of the parties under the Agreement, arbitration will be entered into in Dallas, Texas. Each party will notify the other, in writing, of the name of its representative(s) who will have primary responsibility for communications with the other party. If such representatives are unable to resolve the dispute within 60 days of a party’s written notice of a dispute, either party may demand submission of the issue to arbitration before a single arbitrator in accordance with the Alternative Dispute Resolution Service Rules of Procedure for Arbitration, as published by the American Health Lawyers Association. The party requesting such arbitration shall pay the arbitrator’s fee. The
|
11)
|
decision of the representatives or, if applicable, the arbitrator, shall be final and binding upon the parties.
Except as otherwise stated herein, all remaining terms of the Service Provider Agreement, as previously amended, shall remain unmodified and in full force and effect.
