Provider agrees, in the event of Health Plan's insolvency, to continue to provide the services promised in this Agreement to Members of Health Plan for the duration of the period for which premiums on behalf of the Member were paid to Health Plan or until the Members discharge from inpatient facilities, whichever time is greater. 3. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to modify the rights and benefits contained in the Members health program. 4. Provider may not bill the Member for Covered Services (except for deductibles, co -payments, or coinsurance) where Health Plan denies payments because Provider has failed to comply with the terms or conditions of this Agreement. 5. Provider further agrees (i) that the provisions of (1), (2), (3), and (4) of this Attachment shall survive termination of this Agreement regardless of the cause giving rise to termination and shall be construed to be for the benefit of Members, and (ii) that this provision supersedes any oral or written contrary agreement now existing or hereafter entered into between Provider and Members or persons acting on their behalf. 6.
