Hospice represents and warrants Sample Clauses
The "Hospice represents and warrants" clause serves to formally declare that the hospice organization affirms certain facts or conditions as true at the time of entering into an agreement. Typically, this clause will specify that the hospice is properly licensed, in compliance with applicable laws, and has the authority to enter into the contract. For example, it may state that the hospice meets all regulatory requirements and maintains necessary insurance coverage.
