"No third party beneficiaries" clauses, if drafted with care, can offer some measure of protection to providers. Although courts may give minimal weight to "boilerplate" clauses in determining contractual intent, a more detailed and substantive clause may be more persuasive. In drafting such clauses, however, care should be taken to clearly state the specific intentions of the parties, including the scope and purposes of the contract, the identity of the intended beneficiaries, and the classes of persons that are to be excluded as beneficiaries (e.g., HMO enrollees).
“无第三方受益人”条款若精心起草，可为供应商提供一定程度的保护。尽管法院在确定合同意图时可能对“格式”条款给予最小程度的重视，但更详细、实质性更强的条款可能更具说服力。然而，在起草此类条款时，应注意明确说明双方的具体意图，包括合同的范围和目的、预期受益人的身份以及将被排除在受益人之外的人员类别（例如健康维护组织参保人）。
