   TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR USE, REPRODUCTION, AND DISTRIBUTION

   1. Definitions.

      "License" shall mean the terms and conditions for use, reproduction,
      and distribution as defined by Sections 1 through 10 of this document.

      "Licensor" shall mean the copyright owner or entity authorized by
      the copyright owner that is granting the License.

      "Legal Entity" shall mean the union of the acting entity and all
      other entities that control, are controlled by, or are under common
      control with that entity. For the purposes of this definition,
      "control" means (i) the power, direct or indirect, to cause the
      direction or management of such entity, whether by contract or
      otherwise, or (ii) ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the

      "You" (or "Your") shall mean an individual or Legal Entity
      exercising permissions granted by this License.

      "Source" form shall mean the preferred form for making modifications,
      including but not limited to software source code, documentation
      source, and configuration files.

      "Object" form shall mean any form resulting from mechanical
      transformation or translation of a Source form, including but
      not limited to compiled object code, generated documentation,
      and conversions to other media types.

      "Work" shall mean the work of authorship, whether in Source or
      Object form, made available under the License, as indicated by a
      copyright notice that is included in or attached to the work
      (an example is provided in the Appendix below).

      "Derivative Works" shall mean any work, whether in Source or Object
      form, that is based on (or derived from) the Work and for which the
      editorial revisions, annotations, elaborations, or other modifications
      represent, as a whole, an original work of authorship. For the purposes
      of this License, Derivative Works shall not include works that remain
      separable from, or merely link (or bind by name) to the interfaces of,
      the Work and Derivative Works thereof.

      "Contribution" shall mean any work of authorship, including
      the original version of the Work and any modifications or additions
      to that Work or Derivative Works thereof, that is intentionally
      submitted to Licensor for inclusion in the Work by the copyright owner
      or by an individual or Legal Entity authorized to submit on behalf of
      the copyright owner. For the purposes of this definition, "submitted"
      means any form of electronic, verbal, or written communication sent
      to the Licensor or its representatives, including but not limited to
      communication on electronic mailing lists, source code control systems,
      and issue tracking systems that are managed by, or on behalf of, the
      Licensor for the purpose of discussing and improving the Work, but
      excluding communication that is conspicuously marked or otherwise
      designated in writing by the copyright owner as "Not a Contribution."

      "Contributor" shall mean Licensor and any individual or Legal Entity
      on behalf of whom a Contribution has been received by Licensor and
      subsequently incorporated within the Work.

   2. Grant of Copyright License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a worldwide, 
      non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free copyright license to 
      reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of, publicly display, publicly
      perform, sublicense, and distribute the Work and such Derivative 
      Works in Source or Object form.

   3. Grant of Patent License. Subject to the terms and conditions of
      this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a worldwide,
      non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free (except as stated in this 
      section) patent license to make, have made, use, offer to sell, 
      sell, import, and otherwise transfer the Work, where such license
      applies only to those patent claims licensable by such Contributor
      that are necessarily infringed by their Contribution(s) alone or 
      by combination of their Contribution(s) with the Work to which such
      Contribution(s) was submitted. If You institute patent litigation 
      against any entity (including a cross-claim or counterclaim in a 
      lawsuit) alleging that the Work or a Contribution incorporated 
      within the Work constitutes direct or contributory patent 
      infringement, then any patent licenses granted to You under this
      License for that Work shall terminate as of the date such 
      litigation is filed.

   4. Redistribution. You may reproduce and distribute copies of the
      Work or Derivative Works thereof in any medium, with or without
      modifications, and in Source or Object form, provided that You
      meet the following conditions:

      (a) You must give any other recipients of the Work or
          Derivative Works a copy of this License; and

      (b) You must cause any modified files to carry prominent notices
          stating that You changed the files; and

      (c) You must retain, in the Source form of any Derivative Works
          that You distribute, all copyright, patent, trademark, and
          attribution notices from the Source form of the Work,
          excluding those notices that do not pertain to any part of
          the Derivative Works; and

      (d) You must duplicate this License in any documentation for the
          Source form where You describe recipient's rights or 
          ownership rights relating to the Work; and

      (e) If the Work includes a "NOTICE" text file as part of its
          distribution, then any Derivative Works that You distribute must
          include a readable copy of the attribution notices contained
          within such NOTICE file, excluding those notices that do not
          pertain to any part of the Derivative Works. The contents
          of the NOTICE file are for informational purposes only and
          do not modify the License. You may add Your own attribution
          notices within Derivative Works that You distribute, alongside
          or as an addendum to the NOTICE text from the Work, provided
          that such additional attribution notices cannot be construed
          as modifying the License; and
   
      (f) You must display all the copyright, patent, trademark, and
          attribution notices for the Work within a display generated 
          by the Derivative Works, if and wherever such third-party 
          notices normally appear.

      You may add Your own copyright statement to Your modifications and
      may provide additional or different license terms and conditions
      for use, reproduction, or distribution of Your modifications, or
      for any such Derivative Works as a whole, provided Your use,
      reproduction, and distribution of the Work otherwise complies with
      the conditions stated in this License.

   5. Submission of Contributions. Unless You explicitly state otherwise,
      any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work
      by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of
      this License, without any additional terms or conditions.
      Notwithstanding the above, nothing herein shall supersede or modify
      the terms of any separate license agreement you may have executed
      with Licensor regarding such Contributions.

   6. Termination. This License will automatically terminate if You 
      materially breach any of its terms or conditions.

   7. Trademarks. This License does not grant permission to use the trade
      names, trademarks, service marks, or product names of the Licensor,
      any other Contributor, Markle Foundation, Connecting for Health, or the 
      Robert Wood Johnson Foundation except as required for reasonable and 
      customary use in describing the origin of the Work and reproducing the 
      content of the NOTICE file. Further, You shall not use the name of the 
      Licensor, the names of any Contributors, the Markle Foundation, 
      Connecting for Health, or the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
      to endorse, imply an affiliation with, or otherwise promote products
      derived from this Work without specific prior written permission.

   8. DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY. UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
      AGREED TO IN WRITING, LICENSOR PROVIDES THE WORK (AND EACH
      CONTRIBUTOR PROVIDES ITS CONTRIBUTIONS) ON AN "AS IS" BASIS,
      WITHOUT WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR
      IMPLIED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS
      OF TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, DURABILITY, PERFORMANCE, MERCHANTABILITY, 
      OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR THAT THE WORK IS FREE OF 
      DEFECTS. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE 
      WORK IS WITH YOU, INCLUDING ANY RISK WITH RESPECT TO UNAUTHORIZED OR
      INADVERTENT DISCLOSURE OF INDIVIDUALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION OR 
      PROTECTED HEALTH INFORMATION, AS DEFINED IN 45 CFR § 160.103. YOU 
      ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR DETERMINING THE APPROPRIATENESS OF USING 
      OR REDISTRIBUTING THE WORK AND ASSUME ANY RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR
      EXERCISE OR PERMISSIONS UNDER THIS LICENSE. THIS DISCLAIMER OF  
      WARRANTY CONSITITUTES AN ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF 
      THE WORK, OR ANY PORTION THEREOF, IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT
      UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.

   9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. IN NO EVENT AND UNDER NO LEGAL THEORY,
      WHETHER IN TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE,
      UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW (SUCH AS DELIBERATE AND GROSSLY
      NEGLIGENT ACTS) OR AGREED TO IN WRITING, SHALL REGENSTRIEF INSTITUTE, 
      THE MARKLE FOUNDATION, CONNECTING FOR HEALTH, THE ROBERT WOOD 
      JOHNSON FOUNDATION (OR ANY OF THEIR OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES,
      CONTRACTORS OR OTHER PERSONS WORKING ON THEIR BEHALF) OR ANY 
      CONTRIBUTOR BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY DIRECT, 
      INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES 
      OF ANY CHARACTER ARISING AS A RESULT OF THIS LICENSE OR OUT OF THE

      FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL, WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER OR COMPUTER 
      PROGRAM FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, LOSS OF USE, LOSS OF DATA, LOST 
      PROFITS, PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE GOODS OR SERVICES, BUSINESS 
      INTERRUPTION, UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OF PROTECTED HEALTH 
      INFORMATION, VIOLATION OF PRIVACY RIGHTS, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER 
      COMMERCIAL DAMAGES OR LOSSES), EVEN IF SUCH CONTRIBUTOR HAS 
      BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

  10. Accepting Warranty or Additional Liability. While redistributing
      the Work or Derivative Works thereof, You may choose to offer,
      and charge a fee for, acceptance of support, warranty, indemnity,
      or other liability obligations and/or rights consistent with this
      License. However, in accepting such obligations, You may act only
      on Your own behalf and on Your sole responsibility, not on behalf
      of any other Contributor, Regenstrief Institute, the Markle Foundation,
      Connecting for Health, or the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation
      (collectively, the "Indemnified Parties") and only if You agree to indemnify,
      defend, and hold each Indemnified Party harmless for any liability
      incurred by, or claims asserted against, such Indemnified Party by reason
      of your accepting any such warranty or additional liability.
