Although accessible by others, the Services (which include content) are intended for access and use only by Indian customers. Please read these terms and conditions of use (the “Agreement”) carefully before accessing or using the Services. Throughout this Agreement, FamPhy is referred to as “we” or “us.”

What Service does FamPhy Provide?
FamPhy is designed to offer information and a means to enable you to obtain telephonic and in-person consultations and treatment for common medical conditions by facilitating the connection between you and nearby health care professionals through the use of the Application. For the avoidance of doubt, the capitalized word “Services” as used in this Agreement refers only to our Application, website and related content and does not refer to the telephonic and in-person consultations and treatment that users receive from health care professionals. None of the website or Application content should be considered medical advice or an endorsement, representation or warranty that any particular medication or treatment is safe, appropriate, or effective for you.

How to Use the Application?
To use the Application, you first need to sign up with FamPhy. When signing up, you are obligated to provide us with certain information, such as your name, address, date of birth, credit card information and the name of your primary care provider (if you have one). In the future, we may also require users to provide insurance information. Upon successful completion of the sign up process, we will provide you with a personal account, accessible for you with a password of your choice.

You have to be 18 years of age or older and reside in a jurisdiction in which we offer the Application to use the Application. If you reside in a jurisdiction that restricts the use of the Application because of age, or restricts the ability to enter into contracts such as this one due to age, you must abide by such age limits and you must not use the Application. You represent that you are of legal age to enter into a binding contract.

The Application is designed to enable you to send a request for select non-emergency medical consultation services to a health care professional. The GPS receiver – which should be installed on the mobile device on which you have downloaded the Application – detects your location. The Application identifies to you healthcare professionals who have licensed the Application from us and that have engaged us to provide administrative, scheduling, and other operational services. You will be able to select a health care professional who you wish will perform healthcare services you. After your selection, the Application then sends a message to the professional you selected that asks the professional whether he or she would like to provide you with the requested healthcare services. Health care professionals engaged by you through the Application do not accept Medicare or Medicaid. In the event a health care professional agrees to provide you with healthcare services, the Application schedules those services and bills you on behalf of the healthcare professional. We make no representation or warranty to you any health care professional will be available to perform health care services

There is no charge to register with us or download the Application on your mobile device.

We reserve the right to introduce a fee in the future for downloading the Application as registering with us. If we decide to introduce such a fee, we will inform you accordingly and allow you to either continue or terminate your account.

The rates that apply for the telephonic or in-person medical consultation services provided by the health care professionals can be found on our website and through the Application. These may be modified or updated from time to time. It is your own responsibility to remain informed about the current rates for the medical services made available through the Application.

FamPhy shall, on behalf of the health care professional, charge you for the medical services provided to you by that health care professional. You agree that you will pay for all medical services you receive from the health care professional, and that FamPhy may charge your credit card account, as provided by you when registering for the Services, for the medical services including any taxes and late fees, as applicable, that may be accrued by or in connection with your account.
