Affiliate terms

Version 2026-01-01

Cash-pay direct-to-consumer programs only

This affiliate program covers only DirectCareAI's direct-to-consumer cash-pay programs. Programs that bill insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, or any federal healthcare program are not eligible for affiliate referrals. This is a deliberate compliance boundary to keep affiliates clear of Anti-Kickback Statute and Stark Law concerns.

1. No medical claims

Affiliates may not make medical claims, guarantee outcomes, diagnose conditions, or promise specific clinical results from any DirectCareAI program or device.

2. No representation as a provider

You may not represent yourself as a DirectCareAI clinician, care team member, or healthcare provider unless you have a signed, current provider agreement with DirectCareAI.

3. Cash-pay programs only — no reimbursement claims

All DirectCareAI affiliate programs are direct-to-consumer (cash-pay). You may not state or imply that programs are 'free', 'covered by insurance', 'eligible for reimbursement', 'billable to Medicare/Medicaid', or 'covered by HSA/FSA' unless DirectCareAI has authorized the specific claim in writing. Do not refer patients for any program that DirectCareAI bills to insurance — those programs are excluded from this affiliate program.

4. No spam, no unauthorized messaging

You must comply with TCPA, CAN-SPAM, and all applicable SMS/email marketing laws. Do not buy lists or send unsolicited messages.

5. Brand and ad rules

You may not bid on DirectCareAI brand terms, run paid ads impersonating DirectCareAI, or use the DirectCareAI name in a way that suggests an official partnership without written approval.

6. No patient data disclosure

You will not request, collect, or disclose patient health information (PHI) about anyone you refer. Affiliate dashboards do not expose PHI and you may not attempt to obtain it.

7. Testimonials

You may not publish patient testimonials without prior written permission from both the patient and DirectCareAI.

8. Reversals and compliance

DirectCareAI may reverse commissions for refunds, fraud, non-qualified enrollments, self-referrals, or any compliance violation. Repeated violations will result in termination.

9. Consent

By creating an affiliate account, you consent to referral tracking, audit logging of actions on your account, and the storage of the hashed identifiers needed to attribute referrals.
