2. Your Relationship With Us

Vineyard makes available to individuals who register as users of the Services access to Medical Providers, Insurance Navigation, Registered Dietitians, Educational Resources and other third-party platforms. Our Services may also provide access to prescription fulfillment services offered by third party pharmacies (the “Pharmacies”) and clinical laboratory services from third-party laboratories (the “Labs”). All of the Providers, Pharmacies and Labs are independent of Vineyard and may use the Services as a way to communicate with you.

We do not control or interfere with the practice of medicine by any Providers, each of whom is solely responsible for directing the medical care and treatment they provide. By accepting these Terms, you acknowledge and agree that Vineyard is not a healthcare provider and that by using the Services, you are not entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with us. By using the Services, you may be entering into a doctor-patient or other health care provider-patient relationship with one or more Providers.

Any information or advice received from a Provider comes from the Provider alone, and not from Vineyard. Your interactions with Providers via the Services are not intended to take the place of your relationship with your regular health care practitioners. Neither Vineyard, nor any of its subsidiaries or affiliates or any third party who may promote the Services or provide a link to the Services, will be liable for any professional advice obtained from a Provider via the Services or for any other information obtained on the Platform.

Vineyard does not endorse any specific tests, providers, laboratories, pharmacies, medications, products or procedures that are recommended by Providers who may use Vineyard’s Services to communicate with you. Vineyard does not make any representations or warranties about the training or skill of any healthcare Providers who provide services via the Services. You acknowledge that your reliance on any Providers, Labs or Pharmacies, or information provided by the Providers via the Services is solely at your own risk and you assume full responsibility for all risk associated therewith.

By accepting these Terms, you agree and acknowledge that any Services you receive from the Providers, Pharmacies and Labs through the Platform are also subject to these Terms and that the Providers, Pharmacies and Labs are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms.

Vineyard does not control or interfere with any professional service provided by the Providers, Labs and Pharmacies, each of which is solely responsible for the provision of applicable professional services rendered via the Services.

3. Insurance

Vineyard is not an insurer and does not accept or bill insurance. The Services require a direct monthly subscription fee of $150. This fee covers your access to our telemedicine platform and provider consultations. The Services are not insurance products or services, and the monthly subscription fee is not an insurance premium. We do not submit claims to insurance companies, and you cannot submit your monthly subscription fee for reimbursement from your insurance company. If you desire any type of health insurance, you will need to purchase such insurance separately.

4. Informed Consent for Telehealth Services

Telehealth involves the delivery of health and mental health care services using electronic communications, information technology or other means between a healthcare provider or mental health professional and a patient who are not in the same physical location. While the provision of health care services using telehealth may offer certain potential benefits, there are also potential risks associated with the use of telehealth. Telehealth services are not a substitute for in-person care in all cases. In order to use the Services, you will be required to review and agree to an informed consent regarding the use of telehealth (the “Informed Consent for Telehealth Services”) that will be provided to you via the Services. You agree that Vineyard. is a third-party beneficiary of the Informed Consent for Telehealth Services and has the right to enforce it against you. For further details, please refer to the Telehealth Consent.

7. Notice Regarding Your Financial Responsibility for Services

You agree to pay Vineyard all applicable charges at the prices then in effect for the Services provided to you. You authorize Vineyard to charge your chosen payment method (your “Payment Method”) for the Services provided to you. If your Payment Method is invalid at the time payment is due, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand. The third-party services provider who manages your Payment Method may impose terms and conditions on you, which are independent of these Terms, and you agree to comply with all of those terms.  Vineyard reserves the right to correct any billing errors or mistakes even if payment has already been requested or received. 

8. Subscription Products

Certain Services and products available for purchase through the Platforms require that you purchase the product on a subscription basis, which means that your payment device will be automatically charged at regular intervals until you cancel your subscription in accordance with these Terms. Subscription fees, including membership enrollment fees, are not a covered benefit under most health insurance plans or other third party payment plans such as a Health Savings Account or Flexible Spending Account. As a result, you acknowledge that you may not be able to submit such subscription fees for coverage under your insurance or other third party payment plans, and as such, you will be responsible for the cost of such subscription fee.  

The subscription fees cover costs associated with personal services that enhance your healthcare experience, tools to facilitate access to healthcare services, and certain on-demand telehealth services. By purchasing a Vineyard subscription, you gain access to higher-touch personal services such as insurance and billing navigation, access to a qualified provider, 24/7 connection to our services team, and digital tools for easy access to the Services.  To the extent permitted by law, subscription fees are final and non-refundable unless expressly stated otherwise.

We reserve the right to issue refunds or credits at our sole discretion. If we issue a refund or credit in one instance, we are under no obligation to issue the same refund or credit in the future. If we terminate your subscription for non-payment, or if you choose to cancel your subscription and return to the program at a later date, you will be subject to any rate increases at the time of re-enrollment. You acknowledge that your subscription fees may be different from the subscription fee paid by others using the Services because of discounts or promotions offered to others for which you may not be eligible or which are not available at the time you signed up for the Services.

The Services require a monthly subscription fee of $150. This subscription fee covers:

  • Access to telemedicine consultations
  • Access to medical providers
  • Insurance and billing navigation services
  • Digital tools for healthcare access
  • 24/7 connection to our services team

Subscription fees are final and non-refundable unless expressly stated otherwise. The subscription does not include the cost of any prescribed medications, laboratory testing, or other third-party services.

9. Prescription Products

Certain products made available through the Platform require a valid prescription by a licensed healthcare Provider. You will not be able to obtain a prescription product unless you have completed a consultation with one of the Providers through the Platform, the Provider has determined the prescription product is appropriate for you, and the Provider has written a valid prescription.

If a Provider determines a prescription product is appropriate for you and writes a prescription, your prescription will be sent to a Pharmacy of your choice. Subscription plans do not include the cost of medications in the monthly subscription fee. The additional costs for these medications will be your financial responsibility.  

You must pay for your medication yourself, on top of the monthly Vineyard membership fee. Vineyard makes no representations whatsoever that the fees for medications are or are not covered by your health insurance or other third party payment plans or whether the pharmacy you choose accepts your plan.


Through our Services, providers may prescribe certain controlled medications limited to Qsymia (phentermine/topiramate) and testosterone, when medically appropriate. All other controlled substances are explicitly excluded from our prescribing formulary. You will not be able to obtain these or any other prescription medications unless you have completed a consultation with one of our Providers through the Platform, the Provider has determined the prescription is medically appropriate, and the Provider has written a valid prescription.

Prescriptions will be sent to a pharmacy of your choice. The cost of medications is not included in the monthly subscription fee. You are responsible for all pharmacy costs separate from and in addition to your monthly Vineyard membership fee.

10. Laboratory Products and Services

Certain laboratory products and services available through the Platform, are not part of the subscription fee but still require a valid prescription or order by a licensed healthcare provider. You will not be able to obtain such laboratory services unless you have completed a consultation with a Provider, the Provider has determined the laboratory product and/or service is appropriate for you and the Provider has prescribed or ordered the laboratory product and/or service.

If you receive laboratory products and/or services from a Lab through the Platform you agree to pay the additional costs associated with the Lab products and services. Laboratory products and services available through the Platform are “Third-Party Goods and Services” as described in the Third-Party Goods and Services section of the Terms.

11. Third-Party Good and Services

Parties other than Vineyard, including Providers, Pharmacies and Labs provide services or sell products through the Services (collectively, “Third Parties”), and Vineyard may also make available to you for purchase certain services, devices, items or products manufactured, distributed or sold by Third-Parties (“Third-Party Goods and Services”). Your interactions with Third Parties, including payment and delivery of goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties or representations associated with such use or interactions, are solely between you and such Third-Parties. You should make whatever investigation you feel necessary or appropriate before proceeding with any online or offline transaction involving Third Parties or any Third-Party Goods and Services. You are solely responsible for, and will exercise caution, discretion, common sense and judgment in, using the Services and disclosing personal information to any Third Party.

You agree that Vineyard will not be responsible or liable for any loss or damage of any sort incurred as the result of your use of the Services, including any Third-Party Goods and Services or your interactions with any Third Parties.

IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH STATES: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”

Certain of Vineyard shareholders, directors, officers, employees, contractors or agents (collectively, “Vineyard Owners and Personnel”) may have a financial interest in one or more Third Parties and may profit from your use of the Third Parties and/or the sale of Third-Party Goods and Services to you.

12. Cancellation

In some cases, the Services may not be the most appropriate way for you to provide information to, communicate with, or seek medical care and treatment from, a healthcare provider. For example, certain medical conditions may require an in-person procedure or a visit to a healthcare provider other than your Provider, or your Provider may determine that your diagnosis and/or treatment requires an in-person office visit or is otherwise not appropriately addressed through use of the Services. In such a case, you may receive notification that you will be unable to continue using the Services. We reserve the right to change or include new requirements or modify the availability of the Services in our sole discretion without providing prior notice to you.

25. Binding Arbitration / Class Waiver

YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT ANY LEGAL CLAIM, DISPUTE OR OTHER CONTROVERSY BETWEEN YOU AND Vineyard OR YOU AND ANY OF THE Vineyard-AFFILIATED PARTIES OR PROVIDERS ARISING OUT OF OR OTHERWISE RELATING IN ANY WAY TO Vineyard, THE SITE, THE PLATFORM THE CONTENT OR THE SERVICES, OR ANY OTHER Vineyard GOODS, SERVICES OR ADVERTISING, INCLUDING CONTROVERSIES RELATING TO THE APPLICABILITY, ENFORCEABILITY OR VALIDITY OF ANY PROVISION OF THESE TERMS OF USE (COLLECTIVELY “DISPUTES”), WILL BE RESOLVED IN CONFIDENTIAL BINDING ARBITRATION CONDUCTED BEFORE ONE COMMERCIAL ARBITRATOR FROM THE AMERICAN ARBITRATION ASSOCIATION (“AAA”), RATHER THAN IN A COURT, AS DESCRIBED HEREIN. THE ARBITRATION WILL BE GOVERNED BY THE AAA’S COMMERCIAL ARBITRATION RULES AND, IF THE ARBITRATOR DEEMS THEM APPLICABLE, THE SUPPLEMENTARY PROCEDURES FOR CONSUMER RELATED DISPUTES (COLLECTIVELY “RULES AND PROCEDURES”). YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU ARE VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY FORFEITING YOUR RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY AND TO OTHERWISE PROCEED IN A LAWSUIT IN STATE OR FEDERAL COURT, EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED HEREIN.

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual.

Payment of arbitration costs will be governed by the AAA’s fee schedule, unless you are able to show that your portion will be prohibitive as compared to litigation costs, in which case Vineyard will pay as much of your arbitration costs as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive as compared to litigation costs. Vineyard also reserves the right in its sole and exclusive discretion to assume responsibility for all arbitration costs imposed by the AAA. Each party to the arbitration agrees to pay its own attorneys’ fees and expenses unless there is a governing statutory provision that requires the prevailing party to be paid attorneys’ fees and expenses.

For more information on AAA, its Rules and Procedures, and how to file an arbitration claim, you may visit the AAA website at https://www.adr.org.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, to the extent Disputes arises from: (a) a violation of either party’s intellectual property rights in any manner; (b) any claim related to, or arising from, allegations of theft, piracy, unauthorized use or a violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act; and/or (c) any claim for equitable relief; then you and Vineyard agree that a party may seek injunctive remedies (or an equivalent type of urgent legal relief) in a state or federal court in Harris County, Texas, and both parties agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts in connection with such proceedings. In addition to the foregoing, either party may assert an individual action in small claims court for Disputes that are within the scope of such court’s jurisdiction in lieu of arbitration as long as such action remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis.

ALL DISPUTES SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. NO PARTY MAY BRING ANY CLAIM SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION PURSUANT TO THESE TERMS AS A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL, IN A REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY, OR AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS PROCEEDING. THE CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE JOINED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. NO ARBITRATION WILL BE CONSOLIDATED OR JOINED WITH ANY OTHER ARBITRATION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S).
