AMA CPT® Disclaimers — Are We Compliant?  🩺📋

Audit of the product vs. the uploaded license's notice obligations

Source: AMA CPT Data Files License Agreement (draft, 01 Jun 2026) · Appendix E “Notices & Disclaimers” + Appendix A “End User Agreement Terms”

VERDICT: PARTIAL — not yet compliant.
Good-faith start (CPT® trademark + copyright + a paraphrased “not coding advice” line on the PDF & the on-screen billing banner). But 6 required notices are missing or paraphrased. Do NOT tell the AMA we're fully compliant yet. Closing the in-product gaps = one bounded /synexar-task (text only).
⚠️ TWO surfaces, not one
A) In-product display → the app + the PDF report  (Appendix E)
B) End-User Agreement → your customer contract / Terms, outside the app  (Appendix A)
We found nothing for (B) in the repo — separate legal item.
What the AMA license requires What Synexar has today Status
CPT® is a registered trademark of the AMA Present on PDF + on-screen billing banner HAVE ✓
“CPT copyright [year] AMA. All rights reserved.” Present on PDF (PdfService.cs) HAVE ✓
Copyright YEAR = title year − 1 (CPT 2026 → “2025”) Code shows “2026” — likely off by one VERIFY ⚠
Fee schedules / RVUs / conversion factors “not part of CPT, AMA not recommending their use” Absent MISSING ✗
“AMA does not practice medicine or dispense medical services” Absent MISSING ✗
“AMA assumes no liability for data contained or not contained herein” Absent MISSING ✗
U.S. Government End Users notice — FAR 52.227-14 / DFARS 252.227-7015 Absent everywhere MISSING ✗
NCCI / CMS “National Correct Coding Policy” notice (we DO use NCCI bundling) Absent — verify if triggered MISSING ✗
Use the AMA's verbatim wording (§15.4e + §16.1) Synexar paraphrase — OK to add, not to replace FIX ⚠
Shown before first CPT display + copyright on each page PDF renders it once, after content; no splash FIX ⚠
End-User Agreement flow-downs (Appendix A): AMA = 3rd-party beneficiary, name-release, “as is”, “guide only”… No customer Terms / EUA found in repo SEPARATE ✗

To honestly tell the AMA “we're compliant” — close these:

  1. Engineering · 1 /synexar-task (text-only): add the verbatim Appendix-E block (fee-schedule + “no medicine” + “no liability”), the U.S. Gov FAR/DFARS notice, and the NCCI notice; show the block before first CPT display (app splash + top of CODING section) and copyright per page; fix the copyright year.
  2. Legal · /brad + outside counsel: add the Appendix-A flow-downs to the customer End-User Agreement (AMA as third-party beneficiary, name-release, “as is”/“guide only”).
  3. Then: request the AMA's written product approval (Agreement §15.3) — required before distribution anyway.
