THE CHOICE NETWORK PLATFORM & EXTERNAL CONFLICT RESOLUTION

 

"The Choice Network" is a referral system only that offers a wide variety of tools/benefits for both client and professional including coverage for some holistic services as one of those membership tools/benefits. The Choice Network is not an insurance company. The Choice Network does not screen clients for previous health conditions or negative health history. The Choice Network does not rate or underwrite membership plans. And The Choice Network does reconize that some clients or professionals do not join the membership for the coverage services. And The Choice Network reserves the right to change their plans as needed. They will provide an update to their clients of an updates to the TOS and membership plans when needed. The Choice Network model is not set up like an insurance company and has modified their system to facilitate the natural holistic health model of healthsyste and wellness. The coverage available is only dependent on the kind and amount of professionals The Choice Network has enrolled in the system. This can vary over time.

 

Since The Choice Network is a subscription-based membership, all persons are welcome. All professionals on the platform are considered independent professionals. They are also subscription-based members and The Choice Network does not control content on professional member's own website(s) nor do they control the services and their licensing requirements. The Choice Network does not endorse one service over another or one professional over another. It is up to the client or member that is seeking services to research each professional they are considering to use fully and determine if they are a suitable fit for the situation. Therefore, The Choice Network is not liable for any professional misconduct a member feels the professional has done. Such issues are required to be resolved through the professional's resolution process. All professionals in the system are required to have liability insurance and if a matter at hand is in this context, you must go to the professional providing the service.  The Choice Network will not re-imburse a claim that is submitted and paid due to these terms. A member will be required to go through that professionals business process for any resolution.

 

The Choice Network will not come between a member and a professional. The Choice Network is a neutral platform that simply offers a referral service. And we will not remove a professional based on a member's disatisfaction. Therefore, grounds for removal will only be based on the violation of this TOS & Privacy Agreement and/or other applicable documentation that is outlined in The Choice Network platform or if a severe breach of HIPPA has occurred by a professional on our platform.

 

COVID 19 POLICIES

 

The Choice Network is a referral network that above all is grounded in "Choice" and "Trust." We do not adhear to coercion, illegal mandates and the elimination of personal body automony. We believe in personal choice across the spectrum, hence our name "The Choice Network."

 

We do understand that some professionals are required to adhere to the standards of their profession, We will support them in that requirement. And we will support any member's personal choice regardless of what side of the spectrum they are on. Any member criticizing any other member's choice with the system should be reported to the admin. This unwarranted criticism does not include clinical advisement that some professionals or practitioner may given in line with their profession or guidelines set out by their profession. Clinical advisement and criticism are two different sides of the coin. Advisement is intended to provide a client with information, research direction and options to choose for their personal wellness journey. 

 

Those member reported to admin for criticizing the choice of any member will be properly investigated and/or warned. Those failing to comply after the warning may be subjected to termination of some/all services within The Choice Network.
