The provisions of this Section 13 apply exclusively to Users who are healthcare providers, health plans, healthcare clearinghouses, or any other entity subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), 42 U.S.C. § 1320d et seq., and its implementing regulations codified at 45 C.F.R. Parts 160 and 164 (collectively, the 'HIPAA Rules').

13.4 Absolute Prohibition Without Active Add-On

THE ENTRY, STORAGE, PROCESSING, OR TRANSMISSION OF ANY PATIENT PHI OR ePHI THROUGH THE M:DESK PLATFORM IS STRICTLY PROHIBITED WITHOUT THE HIPAA COMPLIANCE ADD-ON BEING ACTIVE AND THE BAA HAVING BEEN EXECUTED AND SIGNED BY BOTH PARTIES. THIS PROHIBITION IS ABSOLUTE AND ADMITS NO EXCEPTIONS. MONKEY BRAIN LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, FOR THE LEGAL, REGULATORY, ADMINISTRATIVE, OR CIVIL CONSEQUENCES ARISING FROM THE HEALTHCARE SECTOR CLIENT'S NON-COMPLIANCE WITH THIS PROVISION.

13.5 HIPAA-Specific Indemnification

Without prejudice to the general indemnification clause (Section 8), the Healthcare Sector Client agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Monkey Brain LLC and its directors, employees, agents, and subcontractors from and against any claims, fines, penalties, investigations, civil penalties, or damages imposed by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), the Office for Civil Rights (OCR), or any other federal or state authority, arising from: (a) the Healthcare Sector Client's use of the Platform in violation of the HIPAA Rules; (b) storage of PHI without the HIPAA Add-On active; or (c) the Healthcare Sector Client's breach of the BAA.

13.6 Compliance Audits

Monkey Brain LLC may request evidence of HIPAA compliance from the Healthcare Sector Client at any time during the term of the contract. The Healthcare Sector Client must cooperate with such requests within a reasonable period of no more than fifteen (15) business days. Failure to cooperate may result in preventive suspension of Platform access.

14. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION

ANY DISPUTE, CONTROVERSY, OR CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE USE OF THE PLATFORM SHALL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY THROUGH BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, ADMINISTERED BY THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (AAA) OR JAMS, AS ELECTED BY MONKEY BRAIN LLC, UNDER THEIR COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES IN EFFECT AT THE TIME OF THE DISPUTE.
