Background Information: Our outside billing office, Expert T Billing, approached us to establish an agreement with EpicCare Link to aid in their obtaining updated ambulance patient home addresses and/or health insurance information. By Expert T Billing utilizing this EpicCare Link program, it enables them to determine the much-needed updated information for mailing purposes as well as submitting to insurance companies in a timelier manner. The billing specialist, with Expert T Billing, will have a user ID and password specifically used for City of Hastings ambulance patients and will be conducted on a secure computer. There is no cost associated with this agreement for either the City of Hastings or Expert T Billing. Financial Impact: N/A Advisory Commission Discussion: N/A Council Committee Discussion: N/A Attachments: • Agreement for EpicCare Link System VIII-03 781221_2 1 EPICCARE LINK SYSTEM ACCESS AGREEMENT FOR BUSINESS ASSOCIATE ACTING ON BEHALF OF EXTERNAL CARE PROVIDER THIS AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is made effective as of November 24, 2021 (“Effective Date”), by and among HealthPartners, Inc., a Minnesota non-profit corporation, with its principal place of business at 8170 33rd Ave So., Bloomington, MN (“HealthPartners”), and City of Hastings, a Minnesota Municipality Corporation, with its principal place of business at 115 W. 5th Street, Hastings, MN 55033(“Provider”), and Expert T. Billing, a billing company, with its principal place of business at 216 Myrtle Street W. #231, Stillwater, MN 55082 (“Contractor”) (collectively, the “Parties” or separately, a “Party”). BACKGROUND A. HealthPartners’ Epic electronic health record system (the “EHR”) is used to create and maintain certain records of HealthPartners health care services and other patient information (the “EHR Records”). B. HealthPartners and Provider serve patients in the same community, and many patients are patients of both HealthPartners and Provider. C. Contractor is a “Business Associate” of Provider, as that term is defined at 45 C.F.R. 160.103, providing payment or healthcare operations related services to Provider. D. With the goal of improving the coordination of services related to these shared patients, HealthPartners will make available to Contractor limited access to the EHR, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In consideration of the above and the following mutual covenants, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows: AGREEMENT Section 1. EHR Access 1.1 Grant and Scope of Access. Subject to the terms of and as limited by this Agreement, HealthPartners hereby grants Contractor non-transferable and non-exclusive access to the EHR to permit Authorized Users (as defined in Section 1.6) to electronically access and use the EHR solely for viewing EHR Records necessary for the purposes described in Schedule 1.1. Provider and Contractor represent and warrant that these purposes fall within the categories of payment and/or healthcare operations activities (as those terms are defined in HIPAA, at 45 C.F.R. Pts. 160 – 164), that these activities are within the scope of Provider’s Business Associate Agreement with Contractor. The permitted purposes are more specifically described in Schedule 1.1. Access, use or disclosure for any other purposes (including but not limited to research, fundraising, and marketing) are expressly prohibited. The scope of an Authorized User’s access to the EHR is limited to “read only” access (i.e., an Authorized User will be able to view and print, but not modify, EHR Records). Provider and Contractor are jointly and severally liable for ensuring that Authorized Users do not access the EHR for any purpose or in any manner not specifically authorized by this Agreement. No EHR access is granted to Provider under this Agreement. 1.1.1 Revocation of Prior Agreements. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, as of the Effective Date, this Agreement supersedes and replaces any existing agreements (whether oral VIII-03 781221_2 2 or written) related to Contractor’s access to, or the terms and conditions of Contractor’s access to, the EHR with respect to its services on behalf of Provider. 1.2 No License Granted. HealthPartners licenses certain software products from Epic to maintain and operate the EHR. The grant of EHR access under this Agreement is limited by HealthPartners’ underlying licensing agreement with Epic and does not grant and will not be construed as granting to Provider or Contractor a license for the use of any software products. This Agreement does not transfer to Provider or Contractor any title or ownership rights to EHR, EHR Records, or any rights in patents, copyrights, trademarks, or trade secrets encompassed in the EHR or any other HealthPartners system, software or data. Provider and Contractor agree that they will not and will not attempt to reverse engineer or otherwise obtain copies of the software programs contained in the EHR or other HealthPartners systems. 1.3 EpicCare Link; Manner of Access. HealthPartners, in its sole discretion, will determine the tools it will provide to Contractor for Contractor to access EHR Records, and will determine what EHR Record data is made available to Contractor. 1.4 System Requirements for Access. Contractor acknowledges and agrees that any hardware, software, network access or other system components necessary for Contractor to access and use the EHR will be procured, installed and maintained by Contractor at its sole expense. 1.5 Security Obligations. Contractor will implement safeguards that are reasonable and appropriate to prohibit and prevent Authorized Users from accessing, using, or disclosing EHR Records not specifically permitted by this Agreement. Contractor will also implement reasonable and appropriate administrative, physical and technical safeguards that protect the confidentiality, integrity and availability of the EHR Records. HealthPartners assumes no obligation to, but reserves the right to, audit Contractor’s security practices relevant to this Agreement. Contractor and Provider agree to cooperate with HealthPartners’ conduct of such audits and to promptly address any concerns reasonably identified by HealthPartners. 1.6 Authorized Users. It is the responsibility of Contractor to select and qualify one or more persons that Contractor wishes to be granted access to the EHR System and to use the EHR System on behalf of Contractor, in its role of Business Associate to Provider (once approved, the “Authorized Users”). All Authorized Users must be members of the Workforce of Contractor. “Workforce,” as used herein, shall have the meaning set forth at 45 C.F.R. 160.103. Contractor’s request that an individual be authorized as an Authorized User constitutes Contractor’s representation that the individual is (a) a member of Contractor’s Workforce (and not a business associate of Contractor) who (b) needs EHR access to perform assigned job functions for Contractor. 1.7 Security Request Process. Contractor will designate a Site Administrator. The Site Administrator will submit the requests to add Authorized Users to HealthPartners in writing on a form or by a process provided by HealthPartners. The Authorized Requester must promptly deactivate Authorized Users in the event of any change of circumstances requiring termination of an Authorized User’s EHR access (for example, termination of employment, disqualification as an Authorized User, or change in job function). Furthermore, HealthPartners reserves the right to suspend or terminate the EHR access of any Authorized User at any time for any reason. Site Administrator will ensure that only appropriate persons are granted access to the EHR, will periodically audit the roster of Authorized Users to ensure that the terms of this Agreement are being met, and will promptly respond to all reasonable inquiries from HealthPartners. 1.8 Authentication. Contractor and each Authorized User are jointly responsible for keeping and maintaining the security of the passwords or other assigned authentication mechanisms. An Authorized User may VIII-03 781221_2 3 not share an assigned password with any other person, or use the assigned password of any other person, whether for one-time access or ongoing access. All Authorized Users will be required to execute a User Agreement. 1.9 Training. HealthPartners will provide one-time training in EHR functionality to Site Administrator (or other person mutually agreed by the Parties) who will then be responsible for training all other Authorized Users. Contractor will ensure that, prior to accessing the EHR, each Authorized User is trained, consistent with the HealthPartners training and with this Agreement, regarding Contractor’s and Authorized User’s obligations under this Agreement and applicable laws. Contractor will further ensure that ongoing training of Authorized Users is conducted, as needed. HealthPartners reserves the right to require Contractor to provide additional training that HealthPartners deems reasonably necessary and appropriate. 1.10 Policies and Procedures. Contractor will comply with all applicable provisions of HealthPartners’ Information Services policies governing EHR access and use, including but not limited to policies governing password controls. HealthPartners will provide copies of these Information Services policies to Contractor. 1.11 Auditing and Monitoring by Contractor. Contractor must audit and monitor access to and usage of the EHR to the full extent required to satisfy its legal responsibilities (as a HIPAA Business Associate and otherwise), comply with this Agreement, and ensure that Authorized Users access, use, and disclose EHR Records only as authorized by this Agreement. HealthPartners assumes no obligation to audit or monitor Contractor behavior with respect to the EHR, but may require Contractor to follow a reasonable auditing and/or monitoring protocol if HealthPartners determines that it would be appropriate to address its obligations under HIPAA. In addition, HealthPartners reserves the right to independently monitor and audit Authorized Users’ behavior and usage of the EHR and to immediately suspend an Authorized User’s access to the EHR, if HealthPartners reasonably suspects or believes that Contractor or Authorized User has violated the terms of this Agreement or is otherwise the cause of harm or interference with HealthPartners’ rights or property related to the EHR or the rights or property of others related to the EHR. Contractor and Provider will cooperate with HealthPartners in any additional monitoring or auditing deemed necessary by HealthPartners and conducted by HealthPartners or Contractor. Contractor and Provider will fully and promptly cooperate with HealthPartners in resolving any privacy or security issues identified by such monitoring or auditing. 1.12 Unauthorized Use or Disclosure; Complaints. Contractor and Provider will immediately notify HealthPartners in writing when either becomes aware of any of the following: (a) any Security Incident (as defined by HIPAA at 45 CFR Pts 160 - 164); (b) any actual or suspected unauthorized access, use or disclosure of EHR Records; or (c) any complaint from a patient or other person involving alleged inappropriate use, access or disclosure of EHR Records or other confidential information of HealthPartners. Each Party will cooperate with the others, as necessary and appropriate, to investigate any complaints, any actual or suspected unauthorized access, use or disclosure of the EHR Records, any Security Incident, or any actual or suspected violation of this Agreement. Contractor, in consultation with HealthPartners, will take prompt corrective action at Contractor’s own expense to mitigate and cure any harmful effect that is known to Contractor of any unauthorized access, use, disclosure of EHR Records or any Security Incident related to the EHR that is caused by or attributable to Contractor or Authorized Users. Contractor shall reimburse HealthPartners for all reasonable costs incurred by HealthPartners in investigating an unauthorized use or disclosure or a complaint, and all reasonable costs incurred by HealthPartners to provide breach notifications or to mitigate or cure any harmful effects resulting from an unauthorized use or disclosure or a Security Incident. Contractor further agrees to reimburse HealthPartners for any and all fines and/or administrative penalties imposed for such unauthorized access, use or disclosure, Security Incident, or for delayed reporting. The provisions of this Section 1.12 will survive the termination of this Agreement. VIII-03 781221_2 4 Section 2. Additional Terms and Conditions 2.1 Disclaimer of Warranty; Limitation of Liability. HEALTHPARTNERS NEITHER MAKES, NOR WILL BE DEEMED TO HAVE MADE, ANY WARRANTY OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AS TO THE DESIGN, CONDITION, QUALITY, CAPACITY, OR OTHER ASPECT OF ANY OF THE SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER OR ANY COMPONENT THEREOF, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DATA, SYSTEM, SOFTWARE, PERSONNEL, PROGRAMMING ASSISTANCE, OR CONSULTATION PROVIDED AS A PART OF SUCH SERVICES, OR WARRANTIES ARISING FROM STATUTE, COURSE OF DEALING, COURSE OF PERFORMANCE OR USAGE OF TRADE.

Provider assumes sole responsibility for all clinical decision-making and services provided by Provider, Contractor and Authorized Users arising from, related to or in connection with the access, use, or disclosure of EHR Records. Provider and Contractor agree to use the EHR only in accordance with applicable standards of good clinical practice, as applicable. 2.3 Assumption of Liability. Provider and Contractor will ensure that Authorized User access to the EHR Records is only for legitimate business purposes and as permitted this Agreement and applicable law. Provider and Contractor are jointly and severally liable for each Authorized User fully complying with this Agreement and applicable law. Provider and Contractor jointly and severally assume full responsibility and liability for actions or omissions related to the access to and use of the EHR by Contractor’s Authorized Users or any other person Contractor permits (intentionally or unintentionally) to have access to the EHR, including but not limited to unauthorized access to, use of or disclosure of EHR Records that results from Contractor’s or an Authorized User’s failure to keep the assigned passwords secure. 2.4 Indemnification by Provider. Provider agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless HealthPartners and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities, judgments, fines, assessments, penalties, awards or other expenses, of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, and costs of investigation, litigation or dispute resolution, relating to or arising out of Contractor’s use of the EHR, or Contractor’s acts or omissions or willful misconduct under this Agreement, including but not limited to Contractor’s impermissible access to, use or disclosure of EHR Records or other HealthPartners data, or the introduction of viruses or other harmful contaminant into the EHR or other HealthPartners system by virtue of Contractor’s access. 2.5 Indemnification by Contractor. Contractor agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless HealthPartners and its affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, successors and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities, judgments, fines, assessments, penalties, awards or other expenses, of any kind or nature whatsoever, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, expert witness fees, and costs of investigation, litigation or dispute resolution, relating to or arising out of Contractor’s use of the EHR, or Contractor’s acts or omissions or willful misconduct under this Agreement, including but not limited to Contractor’s impermissible access to, use or disclosure of EHR Records or other HealthPartners data, or the introduction of viruses or other harmful contaminant into the EHR or other HealthPartners system by virtue of Contractor’s access. VIII-03 781221_2 5 2.6 Representations and Warranties of Contractor and Provider. Contractor represents and warrants that it will, at all times during the term of the Agreement ensure that each Authorized User complies with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, applicable law, and applicable HealthPartners, Provider, and Contractor policies and procedures as may be amended from time to time, and to ensure that no Authorized User takes any action that adversely affects or damages the EHR, EHR data or any other system or data file of HealthPartners. Contractor further represents and warrants that it has in place and will appropriately implement disciplinary measures and sanctions against Authorized Users known to have violated the terms of this Agreement, applicable law or applicable HealthPartners, Provider or Contractor policies or procedures, or to have taken any action adversely affecting or damaging the EHR, EHR data or any other system or data file of HealthPartners.

If Provider or Contractor receives any request for copies of or access to EHR Records from any third party, including requests from patients, neither Provider nor Contractor will provide such copies or access but will promptly direct the requester to HealthPartners. 3.3 Other Confidential Information.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the matters contemplated herein and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous oral and written negotiations, commitments, and understandings relating thereto.
