Sprint. The HCS Growth Sprint: 6-in-6, a 26-week activation program.
Engine. The HCS Referral Engine, the ongoing continuity program following the Sprint.
HCS agrees to provide training and consulting to the best of its ability. In exchange, Client agrees to compensate HCS as set out in Section 5 and on the checkout page.
Acceptance. Client accepts these Terms by completing checkout, by signing this Agreement, or by attending any session or accessing any HCS materials, whichever occurs first. The individual accepting represents that they are authorized to bind the Agency.

Sprint Start. The date HCS receives Client’s first payment.
Activated Source. An account that (i) connected with Client’s rep during the Sprint and (ii) sent at least one referral within the Sprint. Also referred to as an Activated Referral Partner.
Reactivated Source. A previously referring account that sent zero referrals in the 60 days prior to Sprint Start and sends at least one referral during the Sprint. Counts as an Activated Source.
Incremental Volume. Additional referrals from accounts already referring in the 60 days prior to Sprint Start. Tracked for ROI. Does not count toward the guarantee.
Participating Rep. Any individual occupying a seat under this Agreement.
3. TERM AND COMMITMENT
Sprint Term. The Sprint runs twenty-six (26) weeks from Sprint Start. Client prepays six (6) consecutive 4-week cycles. The final two weeks of the Sprint are included at no additional charge.
Commitment. Client commits to the full 26-week Sprint. The Sprint is non-cancellable once begun.
After the Sprint. Client continues under the Engine in 4-week billing cycles. See Section 5.
4. WHAT IS INCLUDED
• Weekly Huddle (30–45 minutes) and weekly Working Session (45–60 minutes).
• Dx kits and custom handouts built for Client’s agency.
• Monthly Owner Huddle (20 minutes) and Quarterly Review (30 minutes).
• Group-based access. One 1:1 onboarding per Agency.
5. FEES, BILLING AND AUTO-RENEWAL
Sprint fees. $997 per 4-week cycle per Agency, including two (2) seats. Additional seats are $150 per seat per 4-week cycle.
Billing. All fees are prepaid, non-refundable, and billed at the front of each 4-week cycle.
Auto-renewal. Billing continues automatically in 4-week cycles under the Engine at the then-current rate after the Sprint ends, until Client cancels under Section 13. Client authorizes HCS to charge the payment method on file for each renewal cycle.
Billing during the remedy period. If Client qualifies for the remedy in Section 12, Engine billing is suspended and Client receives the remedy-scope services at no charge. Billing resumes at the start of the next 4-week cycle following the earlier of (a) Client achieving 6 Activated Sources, or (b) the end of the remedy period. HCS will provide Client fourteen (14) days written notice before billing resumes.
Refunds. There are no refunds on coaching or training programs except as agreed by the parties in writing.
Chargebacks. Client shall raise any billing dispute with HCS directly before initiating a chargeback. Initiating a chargeback for services validly rendered is a material breach of this Agreement. Client shall pay the disputed amount plus all costs HCS incurs responding to the chargeback, including fees and reasonable attorneys’ fees. HCS may suspend access immediately upon receiving a chargeback notice.
6. CLIENT ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
Client must meet all of the following throughout the Sprint to remain eligible for the guarantee in Section 12. HCS’s records are determinative of compliance.
• Attend both weekly live sessions (Huddle and Working Session). See Section 7.
• Each Participating Rep submits weekly KPIs by Monday 8:00am CT. More than two (2) missed submissions per rep across the Sprint voids the guarantee. Billing continues.
• Use and document the HCS Dx Sell scripts and handouts.

• Provide baseline prior 60-day referral history at Kickoff.
• Meet the Week 1 activation target: ten (10) targeted accounts in the first week.

• Keep payments current and respond to scheduling requests within forty-eight (48) hours.
7. ATTENDANCE AND MAKE-UPS

Unplanned absence. One (1) miss is permitted if made up within seventy-two (72) hours. More than two (2) unexcused misses voids the guarantee. Billing continues.
8. PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION
No Business Associate relationship. HCS is not a Business Associate of Client as that term is defined under HIPAA. This Agreement is not a Business Associate Agreement. HCS does not require, request, or need access to Protected Health Information (“PHI”) to perform under this Agreement.
Client obligation. Client shall not transmit, upload, or otherwise provide PHI or individually identifiable health information to HCS in any form. Referral data provided to HCS must be limited to account names, referral source names, and aggregate counts. Client shall remove all patient identifiers, including names, dates of birth, medical record numbers, addresses and dates of service, before transmission.
If PHI is transmitted. If Client transmits PHI to HCS, Client shall notify HCS immediately. HCS will delete it and is under no obligation to safeguard, retain, or return it. Client shall indemnify and hold HCS harmless from any claim, penalty, cost or expense arising from Client’s transmission of PHI to HCS, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.
9. CONFIDENTIALITY
Mutual obligation. Each party shall keep confidential all non-public information disclosed by the other in connection with this Agreement, and shall use it only for purposes of this Agreement.
Other participants. HCS programs are delivered in a group setting alongside other member agencies, and territories may overlap.

Client shall not use any such information to solicit, target, or compete for another participant’s referral sources.
Survival. This Section survives termination or expiration of this Agreement.
10. RECORDING AND LIKENESS
Consent to record. HCS records its live sessions. By attending, Client and each Participating Rep consent to being recorded, including audio, video, name and image.

Client restrictions. Client shall not record, download, copy, or redistribute any HCS session or replay. Recordings are HCS IP under Section 14.
11. REFERRAL GOALS AND TRACKING
Months 1–3. 1 to 3 Activated Sources.
Months 4–6. 6 Activated Sources total.
These are tracking goals. Missing an interim goal does not trigger a remedy and does not affect the guarantee, so long as Client continues to meet the Eligibility Requirements in Section 6. The remedy in Section 12 is Client’s sole and exclusive remedy.
12. CONDITIONAL GUARANTEE (EXCLUSIVE REMEDY)
Activate 6 referral partners in 6 months, or we keep running your weekly calls free for up to 6 more months until you do.
The promise. If Client meets all Eligibility Requirements in Section 6 and has not achieved 6 Activated Sources by the end of the Sprint, HCS will continue to provide the weekly Huddle and Working Session at no additional charge until the earlier of (a) Client achieving 6 Activated Sources, or (b) six (6) additional months.
Remedy scope. The no-charge continuation includes group access to the weekly Huddle and Working Session only. It does not include refreshed Dx kits or custom handouts, the Monthly Owner Huddle, the Quarterly Review, new target builds, or additional seats. Those remain available under the Engine at the then-current rate.
Limits. The guarantee applies once per Agency, at the Agency level, for up to the two (2) included seats. New hires after Day 30 do not restart or extend the guarantee.
Exclusive remedy. This is Client’s sole and exclusive remedy. No refunds, credits, or cash payments.

HCS termination. HCS may terminate immediately for nonpayment or misuse of HCS intellectual property.
Termination for material breach. Either party may terminate for a material breach that is not cured within ninety (90) days after written notice, or that is not capable of cure. Fees continue to accrue and are payable throughout any notice period.
Effect of termination. Upon termination, HCS will return to Client or permanently destroy all Client Materials and Confidential Information in its possession, and will cease all use of them. HCS may retain baseline data, KPI submissions and attendance records solely as evidence of compliance under this Agreement. Client shall immediately cease all use of the HCS IP under Section 14.

All HCS materials used in the services provided under this Agreement remain the sole and exclusive property of HCS.
