For Provider Users:
Test Orders on this Site: You, as a Provider User, have access to ordering Vibrant tests on this Site by using the Vibrant Account you created. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU ARE ORDERING THE TESTS, NOT VIBRANT. By ordering any test on this Site, you represent that you have the right to order such test under applicable law. The ordering of tests on this Site is subject to availability.
VIBRANT AND ITS AFFILIATES SHALL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY TO YOU WHATSOEVER IN RESPECT OF SUCH TESTS THAT YOU ORDER FROM THIS SITE, OTHER THAN TESTS PERFORMED PURSUANT TO VIBRANT TESTING POLICIES LISTED ON THIS SITE (SUBJECT TO THE DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY SET FORTH HEREIN).
Responsibility for Test Results: You, as a Provider User, must understand that all test results are subject to interpretation and should not be considered definitive medical diagnoses. It is your responsibility to communicate with your patients regarding the nature of the Test Results and to advise further medical consultation as necessary. Due to variables inherent in testing processes, Vibrant cannot guarantee the complete accuracy of test results under conditions that are not entirely within vibrant control. If any concerns arise from the critical Test Results, you are advised to recommend further confirmatory testing.
Communications with Patients: Vibrant reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to communicate lab results and other information relating to the Services to individual patients as required by applicable law.
Personalized Report Feature: As a Provider User, you have the ability to make recommendations to your patients based on their test results, including recommended nutritional support protocols and other activities. Vibrant provides a platform to let you view, create and/or choose diet/nutrition plans and protocols that have been used by several healthcare providers across the U.S. You also have the opportunity to consult with Vibrant’s team of registered dieticians on diet/nutrition plans and protocols. These diet/nutrition plans and protocols, as well as consultations with our dieticians, are intended for sole use by you, as a qualified healthcare provider, when considering diet/nutritional support for your patients and clients. The use of brand names, protocols, and other suggestions are solely for educational purposes only. These plans and protocols, and any products mentioned in these plans and protocols, are not endorsed or otherwise recommended by Vibrant. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) strictly regulates the advertising or labeling of dietary supplements with any claim to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent disease. To comply with these regulations and to protect you, supplement brands and Vibrant from potential legal liability, you, as a Provider User, shall not make, suggest, or imply any disease claims in connection with recommending dietary supplements and/or non-medical foods through the Vibrant platform. Users of our services are responsible for ensuring that all representations regarding dietary supplements and/or non-medical foods align with FDA regulations and do not include prohibited claims.
The foregoing plans and protocols have not been evaluated by the FDA. The products listed in such plans or protocols are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease. The information, comments, and opinions are for educational purposes only and not for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. At no time should plans and protocols, or any other statements, provided by Vibrant in the patient’s personalized report substitute for individualized evaluation and treatment recommendations provided by a qualified and licensed healthcare provider in the context of a clinical relationship.
Provider Directory Feature: The purpose of the Provider Directory is to service the customers/clients of Vibrant who are seeking Providers who are familiar with Vibrant products, services, and platform.
For Provider Users:
•
Provider Responsibility for Patient Care: Provider at all times remains responsible for the clinical care of their patient. Vibrant is a supplier that provides items and services at the direction of the Provider.
•
Initiation and Removal from the Provider Directory: Provider may request to be listed on the Provider Directory. Provider may be added to, or be removed from, the Provider Directory at any time at the sole discretion of Vibrant. Addition or removal from the Provider Directory will not be related to the volume or value of referrals or other business between the parties. The provider may request to be removed from the Provider Directory at any time.
•
No Referral Agreement: Provider understands that the names on the Provider Directory will be arranged so as not to suggest hierarchical preference (e.g., the names may be arranged geographically or by specialty or alphabetically or reflect other non-preferential criteria). Vibrant will not recommend one Provider over another or refer customers/clients of Vibrant to a particular Provider on the Provider Directory if there are reasonable options (i.e., more than one alternative). The provider has no obligation to refer patients or other businesses to Vibrant.
•
No employment arrangement: The provider is not entering into an employment or independent contractor relationship with Vibrant as a result of this listing. Vibrant is also not entering into an employment agreement but will serve as an independent contractor vendor of services associated with the Provider Directory.

In addition, Provider may provide a 1-2 paragraph overview of their practice. All Provider content is subject to approval by Vibrant in its sole discretion before posting. Under no circumstances shall Provider Content contain any Personal Health Information (PHI) or Personally Identifiable Information (PII), even with patient consent. No endorsements of any medical provider, supplier, or vendor (even if not patient-specific) may be included in the overview. The Portal will contain appropriate disclaimers to confirm that Vibrant is not endorsing any Provider but provides the Directory as a patient service.
•
Ordering clinical laboratory non-waived tests from Vibrant: Under federal law applicable to all clinical laboratories, all non-waived clinical laboratory tests must be ordered by an “authorized person,” defined as an individual authorized under State law to order tests or receive test results. The provider confirms that they are authorized by State law to order all non-waived tests for the patients for whom a written or electronic request for patient testing is submitted to Vibrant.
•
No insurance accepted: The provider understands and will advise patients that Vibrant does not accept any insurance, including Medicare and Medicaid. If a direct patient pays, the patient must pay Vibrant in advance of testing or receipt of items or services through the Patient Navigation Portal.
•
Patient Notices: Any State notices required to be given to patients by the Provider are the responsibility of the Provider. These notices may include, but not be limited to, consents, estimated charges, disclosures of physician investments or relationships, etc.
