CONTRACT FOR CARE · DOCUMENT COMPARISON

Upload the contract. See what the state actually requires.

Seeds of Vice will compare the agreement itself against the current controlling state law, regulation, workers’ compensation rule, Medicaid policy, or other verified authority. The result separates what government actually requires from what the office added.

What the comparison shows

State-required

Terms the current statute or regulation actually requires in the circumstances shown by the document.

Program-specific

Requirements tied to workers’ compensation, Medicaid, a payer, a profession, or another limited program rather than every patient statewide.

Clinic-added

Terms the treatment office chose to impose that we cannot trace to the controlling state requirement.

Needs review

Clauses where the source is ambiguous, the authority conflicts, or a legal conclusion would require more than the document establishes.

The comparison is a document-and-authority analysis, not legal advice and not a ruling on whether a clause is enforceable.

Redact it when you can. We handle what remains.

Please redact patient-identifying information before submitting the contract when practical. If you cannot, submit the agreement as you received it. Seeds of Vice will remove any remaining patient-identifying information before the document or any excerpt enters the public evidence record. This comparison tool accepts Contract for Care documents from every U.S. state and the District of Columbia. Please upload only the contract and any policy or addendum that came with it. Do not upload unrelated medical records, identification documents, billing records, laboratory results, or confidential legal correspondence.

Keep your original exactly as received. Redact a copy before submission when practical. If identifiers remain, Seeds of Vice will create the de-identified working/public copy before public use and preserve the original only as restricted source material.

Submit the agreement

Email is optional. Provide it to receive the completed comparison after review; without it, the document can still contribute to the public state record. Responses are stored in the site’s Forms system, and this form sends no inbound notification email.

I lawfully possess this copy and authorize Seeds of Vice to store and analyze the agreement for public-interest research. I understand that Seeds of Vice may internally redact or de-identify the document and may publish the institutional form, its terms, and de-identified excerpts, but my identity will not be published from this submission without separate permission.

What happens after submission

First, Seeds of Vice removes remaining patient identifiers to create a de-identified working copy. Then it verifies current state authority, compares and classifies material clauses, and preserves the source and date so the result can be checked if the law changes.

A submission does not create an attorney-client, doctor-patient, confidential-source, or advocacy-client relationship. Seeds of Vice does not decide medical treatment and does not promise that a clause is lawful, unlawful, enforceable, or unenforceable.
