1. The Medical and Weight Loss Coaching Program (“Dr. Emily’s School of Weight Loss”)

Coaching and (medical) weight loss services are intended to help Client obtain a variety of benefits through healthy habits including but not limited to weight loss.

As part of the Program, you will receive the services outlined on the web page where you register, which may include some or all of the following services:
  

1. Medical Services: 
1. In-Person Medical Consultation. We may conduct an initial in-person medical consultation with you during the program.  Any medical services will be provided in Kansas, where Emily VinZant, M.D. is a licensed medical doctor.
   
   AN IN-PERSON CONSULTATION IS REQUIRED TO RECEIVE ANY MEDICAL TREATMENT INCLUDING VIRTUAL CARE, LABORATORY TESTING, MEDICATION DISPENSING, OR PRESCRIPTION MEDICATIONS, ALL BASED OUT OF THE STATE OF KANSAS. 
   
   Joining the Program by itself does not establish a doctor-patient relationship, and you may receive coaching services without receiving medical care and without any physician-patient relationship or duty.
   
   The medical care we provide is a specialized Obesity Medicine limited focus, and we are not to be your primary care provider (PCP). All other medical needs should be directed to your PCP. It is important for your overall health and well-being that you maintain an ongoing relationship with your PCP.

After any in-person medical consultation, we may order labs, prescribe medications, or make other recommendations as indicated, based on our individualized evaluation of your condition, all related strictly to the weight loss program.

We will provide a synopsis of our recommendations that you should share with your PCP and discuss with them, if you desire.

Any emergent or urgent medical concerns must be directed to your primary care or other local provider, including visiting emergency room for any emergent condition.
 

1. Follow-up Virtual Medical Care.  Medical regulations vary by state, and the state in which you reside will determine the extent of follow-up care we can provide virtually. If permitted by your state’s laws, we may be able to provide follow-up care virtually via telephone or text, but any such follow-up care is not guaranteed as part of the Program. We typically respond to messages within 24 hours or the next business day. If we are unable to provide follow-up care, we will assist you in seeking care from your PCP.
   
2. iii.Follow-up In-Person Medical Care.  If desired, you may schedule a follow-up visit during our next in-person program day.  Otherwise, you may obtain in-person follow-up care from your PCP.

1. Medical Care Coordination.  We will work with your other medical care providers to communicate and coordinate care with our providers, and you agree that we may communicate with your other providers. If your care requires the services of other specialized medical providers, we will make every effort to source the appropriate referral for you and process the referral expediently, or assist your PCP in doing so.
   
   Any changes in your medications for chronic medical conditions should only be made after consultation with your PCP.
   

As part of the Program, you may also receive, depending on our individualized evaluation of your condition:

1. Laboratory Testing. If we determine you require laboratory testing, the Company will draw blood and/or collect other bodily fluids necessary to facilitate the required tests. The Company will not bill you for any fees associated with drawing blood or collecting bodily fluids. However, you will be responsible for the cost of any laboratory tests. The Company contracts with a third-party laboratory to perform these tests, and they will bill you directly for the costs of the tests.  You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for paying those costs, which are not included as part of the services provided under this Agreement. In addition, if you require additional tests that are not offered by the third-party laboratory with which the  Company has any agreement, you will be responsible for the costs of any such testing. Your obligation to pay for the actual costs of the laboratory testing is not dependent as to whether your health insurer provides any such benefits as different insurers may not cover the tests. 

1. Prescription Medications.  The Company may prescribe medications as a part of your weight management program which you may fill at the pharmacy of your choice. You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for the actual cost of any medications prescribed to you and that the costs of said medications are not included as part of the Services provided under this Agreement and, thus, are not covered by the fees due by you under this Agreement.  If you determine the cost of any medications prescribed to you is not affordable, you may choose to participate in the Program without taking any such prescribed medications.  

1. Exclusions
   
1. Excluded Services. You may need the care of emergency rooms, outside laboratory testing, pathology studies, prescribed medications, radiologic imaging, specialist consultations or treatment, surgery, urgent care centers, specialty vaccinations, or other healthcare services that are outside the scope of this Agreement and are not included in the Program fee. We highly recommend that you maintain health insurance, which may or may not cover the costs of these services. We will endeavor to place orders for Excluded Services in a manner that is cost effective for you or to direct you to obtain such necessary care from your PCP.

1. Controlled Substances. It is our policy not to prescribe controlled substances on your behalf, including commonly abused opioid medications, benzodiazepines, and other stimulants.
