CONFIDENTIALITY AND SYSTEMS USAGE AGREEMENT
✓ I Anujkumar Sharma, hereby acknowledge and agree that I am being given access
to information systems maintained by American Oncology Partners, P.A., American Oncology
Partners of Maryland, P.A., and/or American Oncology Management Company, LLC (collectively
“CE”), which may include electronic medical record (EMR), radiology (PACS), practice
management, billing and/or other CE systems and databases (collectively “CE Systems”). I
further acknowledge and agree that such access is strictly limited to the uses permitted under the
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 and the regulations promulgated
thereunder, as amended from time to time (collectively “HIPAA”), and is being granted by CE
based on representations, warranties, covenants and/or promises made to CE, and/or agreements,
arrangements or circumstances reasonably relied upon by CE in permitting me such access,
including, but not limited to, a “Remote Access Agreement” and/or “Business Associate
Agreement” with CE, and/or my agreement to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
✓ I acknowledge and agree that CE has legal responsibilities for safeguarding the
privacy of patients and the privacy and security of all patient healthcare information it generates,
creates, receives or maintains, directly or indirectly. I understand that the term “patient healthcare
information” as used above is intended to have the same meaning as the term “protected health
information” (“PHI”) under HIPAA and, where applicable, shall include electronic PHI (“ePHI”)
as defined in HIPAA.
✓ I acknowledge and agree that CE must protect and maintain the privacy and security
of all PHI and ePHI in whatever form it is expressed, maintained or documented (collectively
“Confidential Information”) in accordance with HIPAA and all other applicable federal and
Florida law and regulation (collectively “Applicable Law”).
2. I will access and use CE Systems only (a) under the conditions which pertain to
such access and use by me, (b) in compliance with Applicable Law, (c) in accordance with all
applicable CE rules, policies and procedures pertaining to CE Systems (“CE Rules”), and (d) in
accordance with and to the extent of the authority granted to me under Applicable Law, CE Rules
and this Agreement. I understand that my access rights are limited to that information for which I
have a legitimate reason and legal right to access.

3. I will not share my CE Systems user ID or password (“Access Credentials”), or
use tools or techniques to break/exploit CE security measures, nor will I access or connect to
networks or databases in CE Systems or devices without specific authority. I will promptly notify
CE if I suspect that my (or any other individual’s) Access Credentials have been compromised,
disclosed or otherwise violated, and of my (or any other individual’s) access to Confidential
Information which I am not (or to my knowledge, such other individual is not) permitted or
authorized to access.
5. I acknowledge that my access and use privileges with respect to CE Systems may
be denied or terminated at any time, for any reason, including, without limitation, upon CE
determining, in its sole discretion, that I have violated (a) any term or condition of this Agreement
(or any other agreement relating to my access to CE Systems), (b) any Applicable Law, or (c) any
CE Rule, and that such violation may be reported to the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services,
Office for Civil Rights or other enforcement authority.
6. I acknowledge and agree that the remedies at law for my breach of any covenant or
representation herein may be inadequate and that CE shall be entitled to injunctive relief in
connection with its enforcement hereof. I further agree that nothing herein shall limit CE’s right
to any other remedies, including the recovery of damages for my breach.
8. This Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the state of Florida without giving
effect to principles of conflict of laws.
