The Client’s order confirmation (the “Order Confirmation“) and these Terms (collectively, this “Agreement“) comprise the entire agreement between the parties, and supersede all prior or contemporaneous understandings, agreements, negotiations, representations and warranties, and communications, both written and oral. In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Order Confirmation, these Terms shall govern.
Services. By executing the Order Confirmation, Client engages KennedyCare to provide the Client with home care services (the “Services“). KennedyCare shall provide the Services in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.

All late payments shall bear interest at a rate of 3% per month, calculated daily and compounded monthly. In addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at law (which KennedyCare does not waive by the exercise of any rights hereunder), KennedyCare shall be entitled to suspend the provision of any Services if Client fails to pay any undisputed amounts when due hereunder and such failure continues for 3 days following written notice thereof. Payment options are credit or debit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express) and pre-authorized direct debit. All payments are non-refundable.

Client covenants not to make or bring any such claim against KennedyCare or any other Releasee, and forever releases and discharges KennedyCare and all other Releasees from liability under such claims. This waiver and release does not extend to claims for gross negligence, willful misconduct, or any other liabilities that Michigan law does not permit to be released by agreement.
Dispute. In the event of a dispute between the parties, the parties will work in good faith to resolve the dispute. KennedyCare agrees to use reasonable efforts to give warning and seek resolution of the dispute before resorting to termination of the Services.
