All invoices are in Canadian dollars, and prices are subject to change. HANSAmed only ships to Canadian addresses. All invoices are due at agreed payment terms.  Interest shall accrue on all accounts remaining unpaid after terms from the date of the invoice at a lesser of (i) one and one-half percent (1 ½) per month (18 per annum) or (ii) the maximum lawful rate. In addition, a $5.00 monthly fee for all unpaid accounts.   Payments can be made by cheque or credit card (HANSAmed only accepts VISA or Mastercard) at the time of sale. HANSAmed reserves the right to withhold shipment of all subsequent deliveries in the event that HANSAmed does not receive payment in full from Customer within the stated terms. Acceptance by HANSAmed of less than full payment shall not act as a waiver of any of HANSAmed’ rights. Customer shall not retain or withhold from HANSAmed any sum stated on any invoice for any period. Any amount stated on an invoice from HANSAmed shall be deemed correct and binding upon the Customer unless HANSAmed receives notification of objection within 10 days of the date upon which such invoice is received. Notification of objection must be communicated to the Customer Service Department at 800-363-2876 or sent in writing via fax to 800-863-3213, Attn. Customer Service Department.

    Taxes Prices quoted do not include charges for shipping and handling and applicable federal and provincial taxes. Separate charges for shipping and handling will be shown on the invoice. Unless Customer provides HANSAmed with a valid and correct tax exemption certificate applicable to the product ship-to location prior to HANSAmed’s acceptance of the order, the Customer is responsible for all sales, use, goods and services, harmonized sales and other taxes associated with the order. If applicable, a separate charge for taxes will be shown on HANSAmed’s invoice.

    Errors HANSAmed reserves the right to correct any clerical or stenographic errors that may be made to the Customer’s account.

    Title/Risk of Loss Title and risk of loss shall pass to the Customer upon delivery to his/her office. Shipping costs are F.O.B. HANSAmed’s warehouse. Delivery or shipment dates are estimates only and HANSAmed is not liable for any loss, damage, cost or expense for any failure to deliver in accordance with the given delivery or shipment date.

    Product Availability and Substitutions Product availability may be limited and orders may be shipped in stages, depending on availability. HANSAmed reserves the right, without liability or prior notice, to revise or cease to make available any or all products. If there is any modification or discontinuation of a product that has been ordered, HANSAmed may, with the Customer’s consent, ship products that are similar in function and specifications to the products originally ordered. The price for the substitute product may differ from the price of the original product.

    Return Policy HANSAmed offers a conditional return option on all unused and unopened products (excluding Schedule F and other ethical or prescription drugs as well as regulated Class 3 and 4 medical devices), excluding shipping, restocking fee of 20%, and handling charges, provided that the procedures below are followed. In order to invoke the conditional return option, the HANSAmed Customer Care Hotline should be notified at 800-363-2876. The HANSAmed Customer Care Hotline representative will assess the request and upon approval will dispatch a Return Authorization label (ATR#) sent via e-mail. Once received, the customer the be asked to attach the provided ATR# label to the return goods, such that the ATR# is prominently displayed. No return will be accepted without an 'Authorization Return Number' issued and clearly displayed on the box. HANSAmed will not accept any product that is damaged or used and no refund will be made for the initial shipping costs. Price adjustments will be made to volume discounts affected by partial order returns. No credit will be given for items returned where the HANSAmed’s Customer Care Hotline has not previously authorized the return. Defective products may be returned without contacting HANSAmed and receiving the proper Return Authorization label. Defective returned products may be replaced with similar goods and in the same quantities if available, otherwise the account will be credited for the estimated value of the product returned at the time of initial purchase. No returns for Schedule F drugs on non-quality or non-safety related issues. All returns are subject to final approval by HANSAmed.
