BACKGROUND In order to improve military health care, it is essential to have a robust coding and auditing program within Navy Medicine. With future International Classification of Disease (ICD) versions becoming more detailed, it is imperative that health care providers learn to improve medical record documentation. The focus of this contract is to augment Navy Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) coding resources and provide education to Navy health care providers to improve documentation and coding accuracy. The ongoing requirement of the contract is improving health care provider documentation, coding and auditing practices and achieving outcomes such as reductions in claims denials and relative values of care SCOPE The scope of this contract includes inpatient and outpatient medical record coding services, inpatient and outpatient medical record auditing services, medical coding and auditing training services, and Clinical Documentation Improvement Specialist (CDIS) services. In this contract, Armed Forces Health Longitudinal Technology Application (AHLTA), Ambulatory Procedure Visit (APV), Emergency Room (ER) and Inpatient Professional Services (IPS) (also referred to as rounds) records are all considered outpatient records. The services incorporated

17 Page 17 of 179 under this contract are inherently associated with coding and auditing processes. All services provided under this contract shall be provided either on-site or remotely for Navy MTFs as specified in the individual task orders. SECTION 2 - DUTIES 2.1. SPECIFIC DUTIES The contractor shall provide a monthly report of the services rendered during the previous month at each MTF identified in the task order to the task order primary Government Point of Contact (POC), the Regional Patient Administration Department (PAD) Officer and the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) by the 5 th business day of the month. Also, the contractor shall identify any issues regarding the services provided or any government issues that may affect their performance (i.e., inability to gain access to the Automated Information System (AIS) for new employees). The report shall contain a place for the task order primary Government POC to digitally sign to verify receipt of the deliverable and attesting that the information contained within it is accurate. The documents produced in accordance with paragraphs and below shall be embedded into the document. This shall be submitted as an Excel spreadsheet with a separate tab for each MTF, but only one spreadsheet per task order MEDICAL RECORD CODING SERVICES The contractor shall code billable care including Medical Services Accounts (MSA), all Other Health Insurance (OHI) and encounters in clinic specialties requiring expertise in a specific area of medicine The contractor shall research/resolve problematic coding practices identified by the MTFs to include data quality discrepancy items The contractor shall code encounters in clinic specialties where a high level of coding expertise in a particular specialty is required The contractor shall resolve medical record documentation deficiencies through healthcare provider query and provide routine feedback to health care providers to correct future deficiencies The contractor shall work as part of a team interacting with the health care providers, government personnel and contract employees to perform medical record coding and research errors or missing documentation The contractor shall comply with the following turnaround times which begin upon receipt of the record.

The level of effort associated with these records is approximately 3 times that of a standard Outpatient record. Records on the DQ discrepancy list are records that have a logic error between the provider documentation and the codes in the system such as a pediatric code in an adult record. If the contractor initially coded the record incorrectly, the government will not be charged for recoding the record If the government does not agree with a code assigned to a medical record by the contractor, the MTF will notify the contractor of the discrepancy. The contractor shall respond with the action to be taken within 48 hours of notification. If the contractor and MTF continue to disagree, the Navy Medicine Region (East or West) will review and make the final decision on the appropriate code(s). The Region s decision will be sent to the contractor and the code shall be changed at no cost to the government.

This individual (augmented by the activity Department Heads) will also be the contract quality assurance monitor and lead technical advisor to the Contracting Officer and will be responsible for the technical interface needed during contract performance. An ACOR can be nominated to act in the absence of the COR, when needed, or to provide additional expertise. COR and ACOR nominations will be made through the DoD CORT Tool at: The local activity approval authority for the COR or ACOR nomination may be the nominee s supervisor. NOTE: COR duties cannot be delegated. The COR will be accountable for the actions of ACORs. NOTE: Nomination of a new COR or ACOR as a result of reassignment, termination of employment, etc., will be made in accordance with the procedures outlined herein Ensure all individuals nominated as COR or ACOR have the necessary qualifications to satisfactorily perform the required duties and hold a position of responsibility commensurate with the complexity of the contract.

The Contracting Officer will be promptly notified

38 Page 38 of 179 of all actions taken. The local activity should consider COR performance in rating all individuals assigned COR functions Ensure that appropriate timely action is taken on all contract related correspondence received from either the Contracting Officer or COR. This includes the timely submission (to the Contracting Officer) of any requests for changes to the contract, deviations or waivers. An Independent Government Cost Estimate of the impact on contract price and the availability of additional funding (if required) must accompany all requests for changes to the contract. The Contractor s price quote and the rationale for requesting the change shall accompany any changes proposed by the Contractor. The Contractor s price quote serves as a budgetary estimate of the cost impact. The local activity will also provide input as to technical acceptability of proposed contract language changes The local activity Commanding Officer may appoint a TA to assist the COR in executing routine contract administration, monitoring and, surveillance duties. The appointment of all TAs must be in writing and must include the TA's responsibilities and limitations. A copy of this appointment letter will be provided to the Contracting Officer. Before appointment, the local activity will assure that all TAs have the appropriate training and experience. TAs must complete DAU CLC 106 prior to appointment. A sample TA appointment letter is located on the NAVSUP Contracting Knowledge Site (CKS) at: The Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) will: Notify the Contracting Officer in writing of any organizational or personnel changes affecting the CAP Attend both the pre-proposal and post-award conferences, if held Upon receipt of the contract from the Contracting Officer, forward copies of documents to staff having administrative responsibilities for the contract Attend periodic meetings (as necessary) among the Contracting Officer, local activity and Contractor to discuss the status of and performance under the contract Avoid issuing any instructions that would constitute a change to the contract. The COR and Contractor shall not enter into any understanding, agreement, modification, or change order deviating from the terms of the contract which shall be effective or binding on the Government. If in the opinion of the Contractor, an effort outside the scope of the contract is requested, the Contractor shall promptly notify the Contracting Officer in writing. The Contractor shall not act unless the Contracting Officer has issued a written change to the contract. The COR will include, on all correspondence to the Contractor, a declination of authority statement as follows: I have neither the authority nor the intent to change the terms or conditions of this contract. This contract can only be changed by a written modification issued by the Contracting Officer. If you believe that I am requesting an effort outside the scope of this contract, promptly notify the Contracting Officer. Additionally, this shall not be construed as an authorization for new work or additional work not already contained in the contract Perform as the technical interface between the Government and the Contractor for this contract. The COR will provide technical advice or clarification regarding the performance work statement and terms of the contract; milestones to be met within the general terms of the contract or specific subtasks of the contract. The COR is the point of contact through whom the Contractor can relay technical questions and problems to the Contracting Officer. The Contractor may also contact the Contracting Officer directly Coordinate/facilitate complete and timely approvals for work at Government facilities between the local activity and the Contractor. The COR will inspect the qualifications of each contract employee prior to submission to the local activity if required by the contract Monitor Contractor performance and progress under the contract. If potentially inefficient or wasteful methods are being used, the COR will take reasonable and timely action to alert the Contractor and the Contracting Officer. Furthermore, the COR will promptly advise the Contracting Officer of any observed continuous and/or

39 Page 39 of 179 substantial deficiencies in the Contractor's performance or other noncompliance with the terms and conditions of the contract. Section C or the Performance Work Statement of the contract includes the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan to be used by the COR to monitor Contractor performance. Deviation from this surveillance plan is only permitted with the prospective approval of the Contracting Officer In accordance with procedures given in this CAP, promptly issue Contract Discrepancy Reports (CDRs) (Enclosure (1)) to the Contractor to document discrepant performance. The COR will always obtain the Contractor's response/rebuttal to the CDR, evaluate, with the affected Department Head, the acceptability of the response and promptly forward the CDR, Contractor response/rebuttal, and their recommendation to the Contracting Officer The COR will recognize that CDRs become official records within the contract file and that they have serious implications for overall contract management and relationships. CDRs will not be the first and only choice for communicating contract issues with the contractor and shall be implemented in accordance with the procedures given below within this CAP For serious contract performance deficiencies, or when less formal communications fail to resolve minor performance deficiencies, the COR will issue a CDR to the Contractor The COR will ensure that all inspection data is attached to the CDR. The Contractor cannot be expected to respond to performance deficiencies that are not clearly and specifically identified. A cover memorandum on the CDR should specify that the Contractor has three working days, or other appropriate deadline, to respond in writing to the COR. At the time the CDR is issued to the Contractor, the COR will provide a copy of the CDR to the Contracting Officer Upon return of the CDR package from the Contractor, the COR will review the Contractor s comments and give careful, objective consideration to the facts and mitigating circumstances documented in the response. The COR will then make a final written determination and recommendation to the Contracting Officer on the acceptability of Contractor performance and note it on the CDR. The COR will state why the Contractor s response does or does not have merit. The COR will prepare the determination, recommendation, and other statements as appropriate along with actions being requested of the Contracting Officer and as much additional documentation as required to support their conclusions and recommendations The COR will provide the above documentation along with actions being requested of the Contracting Officer and as much additional documentation as required to support their conclusions and recommendations to (1) the Contractor, and (2) the Contracting Officer The Contracting Officer will review CDRs and will advise the COR of the need for any further documentation Monitor and verify that services are provided in accordance with the performance work statement and terms of the contract. Keep accurate records of Contractor performance and compare these records with the Wide Area Work Flow (WAWF) invoice submitted by the Contractor. The COR will always use this information as a tool when evaluating Contractor invoices. Monthly Progress Reports should be compared with their corresponding contractor invoices to verify consistency between the two. The COR should review the acceptability of invoices by consideration of the following: (a) Are there any performance issues? (b) Are costs appropriate considering current progress of work? (c) Are required reports up to date? For cost reimbursement contracts or task orders, the COR s review of invoices will be documented by completion of a Contractor Invoice Review Form (Enclosure (2)) Notify the Contracting Officer of questioned costs or issues. As required, assist the Contracting Officer in resolving questioned costs or issues with the contractor.

40 Page 40 of Accept the services as the official Government representative Use appropriate methods for contract surveillance Understand contract invoicing requirements. The COR will ensure that all WAWF Invoices are processed in a timely manner so that prompt payment due dates are met. Prior to acceptance of a WAWF invoice, the processing official will obtain approval from the cognizant activity Department Head that the payment request is appropriate. This can be done by having the activity Department Head sign a DD250 (or provide an to the contractor) for uploading into WAWF with the invoice. When the WAWF invoice comes up in the WAWF system, the processing official can then see that approval has already been given by the activity Department Head Immediately alert the Contracting Officer of any unusual performance problems. If a corrective action plan is approved by the Contracting Officer, the COR will monitor the implementation and effectiveness of that corrective action plan. In uncertain situations, the COR will always seek advice from the Contracting Officer, as prudent, before acting Continually monitor the quantity of services provided under each CLIN/SLIN and (if applicable) task order. Advise the Contracting Officer if it appears that service quantities may be exhausted before the end of the performance period, or if quantities for services have been ordered but will not be received by the end of the performance period Perform administrative duties including maintaining files which support the actions performed as a COR. The COR will respond to all contract correspondence in a timely manner. Contract files will include a conforming copy of the contract, all modifications, a conforming copy of the Contractor s Technical Proposal, all surveillance reports, each CDR (including the Contractor s response/rebuttal), any contract-related correspondence, a contract log or COR diary, all telephone conversation and records, meeting minutes, reports from Government subject matter experts, and Independent Government Cost Estimates If applicable, take the necessary steps to ensure that Government property furnished to the Contractor is provided in a timely manner and in proper condition for use. The COR will maintain both inventory and disposition records for all Government furnished property. This inventory/disposition file is coordinated with the Contracting Officer. The COR will ensure that the Contractor returns all Government furnished property or that Government furnished material has been reasonably consumed in the performance of work Read and comply with all applicable Standards of Conduct and Conflict of Interest instructions and procedures including annual financial interest filings Ensure that the Contractor receives copies of all regulations and/or directives considered appropriate to the services being provided Submit information detailing the Contractor's performance to the Contracting Officer. A statement indicating performance has been satisfactory along with your request to continue performance is required prior to exercising options under the contract. An annual report on the Contractor's performance will be required 30 days after the end of each performance period. A final report will be sent to the Contracting Officer within 60 days after completion of the contract. The final report will contain a conclusive statement describing the Contractor's overall performance and an evaluation on the accountability of Government property furnished to the Contractor. An addendum report may also be required. Format for the report will be in consonance with the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and is provided at Enclosure (3). If the COR is responsible as the assessing official to complete the CPARS assessment, then that assessment may take the place of the annual report on contractor performance. These reports are to be submitted to the Contracting Officer through the DoD CORT Tool at: Perform other duties, particular to the contract, as may be incorporated into the contract document or as required by the Contracting Officer.

41 Page 41 of Generate monthly COR reports to the Contracting Officer and COR file. The report will address the status of contractor deliverables. Format for the monthly COR report is provided at Enclosure (4). The report is to be submitted to the Contracting Officer through the DoD CORT Tool at: The COR and ACOR will self-nominate themselves through the DoD CORT Tool at: The CORT Tool should also be utilized to assist in the performance of the COR responsibilities Technical Assistant (TA). All requirements for TA duties are reported directly to the COR. At the direction of the COR, the TA will: Perform surveillance and identify Contractor deficiencies Review contract deliverables, recommending acceptance/rejection, and providing the COR with the documentation to support all recommendations Assist the COR in the preparation of the final Contractor performance report using the format and procedures prescribed by the Contracting Officer Identify Contractor non-compliance with reporting requirements Evaluate Contractor proposals, identifying potential problem areas Provide to the COR (a) recommendations for revisions or clarifications to the performance work statement and terms of the contract and (b) recommendations for revisions to the CAP Provide detailed written reports of any trip, meeting, correspondence, telephone conversation, or anecdotal conversation after any contact between the TA and the Contractor For cost reimbursement contracts or task orders - the Defense Contract Audit Agency (DCAA) will be responsible for audit verification/provisional approval of invoices and final audit of the contract prior to final payment to the contractor. 3. Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) 3.1. A Contractor Performance Assessment Report (CPAR) is required annually and after contract completion. An addendum report may be used to record contractor performance relative to contract closeout or other administrative requirements The COR will provide an assessment of the contractor s performance in CPARS The Contracting Officer will review the COR s assessment in CPARS The contractor will have a 30-day period to respond to each CPAR.

A fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract. To justify Marginal performance, identify a significant event in each category that the contractor had trouble overcoming and state how it impacted the Government. A Marginal rating should be supported by referencing the management tool that notified the contractor of the contractual deficiency (e.g., management, quality, safety, or environmental deficiency report or letter). To justify an Unsatisfactory rating, identify multiple significant events in each category that the contractor had trouble overcoming and state how it impacted the Government.

CONTRACTS TO BE PERFORMED IN JAPAN The Status of Forces Agreement between the United States and Japan (SOFA) governs the rights and obligations of the United States armed forces in Japan. Unless a contractor is present in Japan solely to perform under a contract with the United States for the sole benefit of the United States armed forces in Japan and is accorded privileges under SOFA Article XIV, it and its employees shall be subject to all the laws and regulations of Japan, including the US-Japan SOFA. Certain contractor employees and their dependents not accorded privileges under SOFA Article XIV may be accorded status under SOFA Article I(b) with potential eligibility for logistic support. Dependents of contractors or of contractor employees who receive SOFA Article XIV status do not receive SOFA status under SOFA Article XIV or SOFA Article I(b) based on their status as dependents. The Contractor shall comply with the instruction of the Contracting Officer concerning the entry of its employees, equipment, and supplies into Japan, and shall comply with all applicable Japanese laws and regulations as well as United States Forces Japan (USFJ) and USFJ component policies and regulations during the performance of this contract.

Offers shall be prepared based on the assumption that SOFA Article XIV status will be granted by Government in consultation with the Government of Japan. If the Government determines that Awardee does not qualify for SOFA Article XIV status or that SOFA Article XIV status is otherwise inappropriate, an equitable adjustment shall be made to the cost/price and other appropriate terms of the contract. Persons, including corporations organized under the laws of the United States, and their employees who are ordinarily a resident in the United States and whose presence in Japan is solely for the purpose of executing contracts with the United States for the benefit of the United

62 Page 62 of 179 States armed forces may acquire privileged status under SOFA Article XIV. Such contractors and contractor employees are eligible for agency privileges and benefits under the SOFA but otherwise remain subject to the laws and regulations of Japan. Neither SOFA Article XIV nor SOFA Article I(b) status and privileges extend to dependents of SOFA Article XIV contractors or contractor employees. (b) Procedures. (1) Formal application for SOFA Article XIV status shall be made to HQ USFJ only after the contract has been awarded and the contractor s place of operation in Japan has been determined. (2) A contractor seeking SOFA Article XIV status for itself and its employees shall submit the following to the Contracting Officer as part of its offer: (i) Proof that the contractor is a person ordinarily resident in the United States or a corporation organized under the laws of the United States and that its presence in Japan is solely for the purpose of executing contracts with the United States for the benefit of the United States armed forces; and (ii) Proof that the contractor s employees are persons ordinarily a resident in the United States and that their presence in Japan is solely for the purpose of performing work under contracts with the United States for the benefit of the United States armed forces.

(5) Upon receipt of HQ USFJ approval, the Contracting Officer shall issue Letters of Identification indicating SOFA Article XIV status has been granted to the contractor and contractor employees. (6) Once a contractor has been designated under SOFA Article XIV, it is not necessary that it be redesignated if a follow-on contract is awarded to that contractor; provided the new contract does not involve a material change from the work under which the SOFA Article XIV designation was originally granted and there is no significant delay between completion of the existing contract and initiation of performance under the follow-on contract. (c) SOFA Article XIV privileges and benefits. In accordance with SOFA Article XIV, paragraphs 3 through 8, upon certification by appropriate United States authorities as to their identity, such persons and their employees shall be accorded the following benefits of the SOFA. Note: Privileges and benefits afforded under SOFA Article XIV do not extend to dependents/family members.

ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST (JAN 1992) (NAVSUP) This clause provides examples of certain organizational conflicts of interest which are prescribed by Federal Acquisition Regulation Subpart 9.5. The two (2) underlying principles which this clause seeks to avoid are preventing the existence of conflicting roles that might bias a contractor's judgment and preventing unfair competitive advantage. The following subsections prescribe certain limitations on contracting as the means of avoiding, neutralizing or mitigating organizational conflicts of interest. If, under this contract, the contractor will provide systems engineering and technical direction for a system, but does not have overall contractual responsibility for its development, integration, assembly, checkout or production, the contractor shall not be awarded a subsequent contract to supply the system or any of its major components, or to act as consultant to a supplier of any system, subsystem, or major component utilized for or in connection with any item or other matter that is (directly or indirectly) the subject of the systems engineering and technical direction. The term of this prohibition shall endure for the entire period of this contract and for two (2) years thereafter. If, under this contract, the contractor will prepare and furnish complete specifications covering nondevelopmental items, to be used in a competitive acquisition, the contractor shall not be permitted to furnish these items, either as a prime or subcontractor. The term of this prohibition shall endure for the entire period of this contract performance and for either two (2) years thereafter or the duration of the initial production contract whichever is longer. This rule shall not apply to contractors who furnish specifications or data at Government request or to situations in which contractors act as Government representatives to help Government agencies prepare, refine or coordinate specifications, provided this assistance is supervised and controlled by Government representatives. If, under this contract, the contractor will prepare or assist in preparing a work statement to be used in competitively acquiring a system or services, the contractor shall not supply the system, its major components, or the service

66 Page 66 of 179 unless the contractor is the sole source, the contractor has participated in the development and design work, or more than one contractor has been involved in preparing the work statement. The term of this prohibition shall endure for the life of the contract. If, under this contract, the contractor will provide technical evaluation of products or advisory and assistance services, the contractor shall not provide such services if the services relate to the contractor's own or a competitor's products or services unless proper safeguards are established to ensure objectivity. If, under this contract, the contractor gains access to proprietary or source selection information of other companies in performing advisory assistance services for the Government, the contractor agrees to protect this information from unauthorized use or disclosure and to refrain from using the information for any purpose other than that for which it was furnished. A separate agreement shall be entered into between the contractor and the company whose proprietary information is the subject of this restriction. A copy of this agreement shall be provided to the Contracting Officer. Any OCI Mitigation Plan between the contractor and the Government does not give authorization for a contractor being in possession of another company s proprietary or sensitive information. STATION/BASE REGULATIONS The contractor and its employees and subcontractors shall become familiar with and obey station/base regulations, including fire, traffic, and security regulations. Personnel working at the station/base shall keep within the limits of the work (and avenues of ingress and egress), and shall not enter restricted areas unless required to do so and are cleared for such entry. Any contractor s equipment shall be marked for identification.

NOTICE TO CONTRACTOR OF CERTAIN DRUG DETECTION PROCEDURES Pursuant to Department of Defense and Military Service policy applicable to both Government and contractor personnel, measures will be taken to prevent the introduction and utilization of illegal drugs and related paraphernalia into Government Work areas. In furtherance of these drug control policies, unannounced periodic inspections of the following nature may be conducted by installation security authorities:

67 Page 67 of 179 a. Routine inspections of contractor occupied work spaces. b. Random inspections of vehicles on entry or exit from the installation, with drug detection dog teams as available, to eliminate them as a safe haven for storage of or trafficking in illegal drugs. c. Random inspections of personal possessions on entry or exit from the installation. When there is a probable cause to believe that a contractor employee working at a Government installation has been engaged in use, possession or trafficking of drugs, the installation authorities may detain the employee until the employee can be removed from the installation, or can be released to the local authorities having jurisdiction. When the Government discovers illegal drugs and related paraphernalia in the course of an inspection of a vehicle operated by a contractor employee, the vehicle may be detained until it can be turned over to local authorities having jurisdiction and the employee s installation driving privileges may be suspended, revoked, or denied. Trafficking in illegal drug and related paraphernalia by a contract employee while on a Government vessel or installation may lead to possible withdrawal or downgrading of security clearance, suspension or revocation of clinical privileges for employees working at an MTF, and/or referral for prosecution by appropriate law enforcement authorities. The contractor is responsible for the conduct of employees performing work under this contract and is, therefore, responsible to assure that employees are notified of these provisions prior to assignment. The removal of contractor personnel from a Government vessel or installation as a result of drug offenses shall not be a cause for excusable delay, nor shall such action be deemed a basis for an equitable adjustment to price, delivery or other provisions of this contract. OCCUPATIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH REQUIREMENTS (a) If performance of any work under this contract is required at a Government facility, the contractor shall contact the appropriate office and code with cognizance over safety and environmental requirement prior to performance of any work under this contract.

(c) Contractors shall monitor its employees and ensure that they are following safety regulations particular to the work areas. Contractors shall ensure that its employees: (1) Wear appropriate safety equipment and clothing; (2) Are familiar with all relevant emergency procedures should an accident occur; and (3) Have access to a telephone and telephone numbers for the Government facility where the work is performed. (d) This contract may require the contractor to handle hazardous materials, which material safety data sheets will be provided. (e) Accidents: The contractor is solely responsible for compliance of all safety regulations of employees while working on Government facilities. All accidents which may arise out of, or in connection with, performance of services required hereunder which result in injury, death, or property damage, shall be reported in writing to the Contracting Officer and COR within twenty-four hours of such occurrence. Reports shall provide full details of the accident, including statements from witnesses. The fore-going procedures shall also apply to any claim made by a

68 Page 68 of 179 third party against the contractor as a result of any accident that occurs in connection with performance under this contract.

(b) The Federal Holidays applicable to this contract are: New Year s Day, Martin Luther King s Birthday, President s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veteran s Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. (c) In the event that the contractor is prevented from performance as the result of an Executive Order or an administrative leave determination (e.g., weather related closing, delayed opening or early closure) that applies to the Government facility, such time may be charged to the contract as a direct cost provided such charges are consistent with the contractor s accounting practices. In the event that any of the above holidays occur on a Saturday or Sunday, then such holiday shall be observed as they are by the assigned Government employees at the Government facility. (d) If the Government facility allows a flexible workweek for its Government employees, applicable on-site contractor personnel shall perform in consonance with those flexible workweek arrangements for the department(s) supported. (e) Telework is permitted for offsite services and will be addressed at the Task Order Level. If telework is authorized on Task Order for contractor personnel on an ad-hoc or non-routine basis the telework must be approved in advance by the COR. Mission needs shall be considered in the approval or denial of telework. ELECTRONIC TRANSMISSION OF PROPRIETARY DATA The contractor shall be fully capable and willing to electronically transmit proprietary data to the Government. This data may consist of contract deliverables or pricing data required for proposal evaluation. Any software required by the Government to receive the contractor-transmitted proprietary data that the Government does not already possess shall be provided by the contractor at no cost to the Government. Instructions regarding the handling of classified information will be defined at the task order level if a clearance is required. GOVERNMENT FURNISHED PROPERTY Government furnished property will be identified in orders issued under the contract. TASK ORDER ORDERING PROCEDURES a. Government requirements for task orders to be issued under this ID/IQ contract vehicle will be solicited using the fair opportunity process described at FAR (b)(1) unless one of the exceptions listed at FAR (b)(2) applies. b. Information regarding the type of task order, award basis and selection criteria shall be provided with each Task Order Proposal Request (TOPR). c. The Government at its sole discretion may issue task orders with a base period of performance and that also include option periods that provide for continued performance of the task order. Task orders issued with option periods will include FAR clause Option to Extend the Term of the Contract. Option periods will be exercised in writing by the issuance of task order modifications. 1. Task order modifications will be issued unilaterally by the Contracting Officer when the written notices required by FAR have been provided within the timeframes listed therein.

69 Page 69 of Task order modifications may be issued bilaterally as agreed upon by the Contracting Officer and the contractor in cases where the written notices or timeframes required by FAR have not been met. d. No protest under FAR Subpart 33.1 is authorized in connection with the issuance or proposed issuance of a task order except for in accordance with FAR (a)(10)(i). e. The Naval Medical Logistics Command, Code 05, is the designated ordering office for the contract. ON-RAMP/OFF-RAMP ON-RAMP Consistent with FAR (c)(1)(ii)(A), the Naval Medical Logistics Command (NMLC) has determined that it is in the Government s best interest that during the term of the MATO base contracts, there remains an adequate level of competition for task orders. The degree of competition is impacted by the number and quality of contractors. Over time, competition may decrease due to contractor attrition. Services provided by a contractor or multiple contractors may be of a lower quality than expected, which would limit competition. Additionally, a contractor or multiple contractors may not be able to provide services at competitive prices. Unresponsiveness to Task Order Proposal Requests (TOPRs) also impacts competition. Recognizing the possibility of inadequate competition, NMLC intends to annually review the number and quality of contractors and determine whether it would be in the Government s best interest to initiate a new solicitation in order to award additional base contracts. If NMLC determines that it would be in the Government s best interest to open a new solicitation to add new contractor(s) to the MATO, the Contracting Officer may do so at any time provided that: (a) The solicitation is issued under then-applicable federal procurement law; (b) The solicitation identifies the total approximate number of new awards that the Contracting Officer intends to make. The Contracting Officer may decide to award more or fewer contracts than the number anticipated in the solicitation depending upon the overall quality of the offers received; (c) Any contractor that meets the eligibility requirements set forth in the new solicitation submits a proposal in response to the solicitation; however, existing contractors may not hold more than one base contract at any time; (d) The award decision under any solicitation is based upon the same evaluation factors/sub-factors as the original Solicitation N R-0009; (e) The terms and conditions of any resulting awards from a new solicitation are materially identical to the existing version of the base contracts; (f) The term for any such new awards from a solicitation is co-terminus with the existing term for all other contractors, including the option periods (if applicable); (g) If awarded a contract, a new contractor is eligible to submit a proposal in response to each TOPR and receive task order awards with the same rights and obligations as any other contractor; and (h) The award of any new contract(s) does not increase the overall ceiling value of the MATO. OFF-RAMP Each contractor is expected to submit proposals in response to TOPRs, successfully perform the terms of awarded task orders, and promptly improve performance when it does not meet the terms of the task orders. If a contractor does not meet these expectations, it is the Government s intent to off-ramp the contractor by:

70 Page 70 of 179 (a) Implementing a termination for convenience, if applicable and if such action is in the Government s best interest; or (b) Implementing a termination for default, if applicable; or (c) Taking any other action which may be permitted under the contract terms and conditions. NONDISPLACEMENT OF QUALIFIED WORKERS The requirements of FAR clause (Nondisplacement of Qualified Workers) shall be applied at the task order level. CONTRACT DELIVERY/TASK ORDER OMBUDSMAN The Ombudsman will review complaints from contractors regarding the award of Task Orders and ensure that all contractors are afforded a fair opportunity to be considered, consistent with the procedures in the contract. The Task Order contract Ombudsman for this contract is the Navy Competition Advocate General. Contractors are encouraged to settle their complaints through the Competition Advocate chain of command, seeking review by the Command Competition Advocate at the Naval Medical Logistics Command before taking their complaints to the Navy Competition Advocate General. The Naval Medical Logistics Command's Competition Advocate can be reached at the following address: Naval Medical Logistics Command ATTN: Competition Advocate 693 Neiman St. Fort Detrick, MD CONTRACTOR PERSONNEL IDENTIFICATION Contractor employees shall identify themselves as contractor personnel by introducing themselves or being introduced as contractor personnel and displaying distinguishing badges or other visible identification for meetings with Government personnel. Contractor personnel shall also appropriately identify themselves as contractor employees in telephone conversations and in formal and informal written correspondence. When working at Government facilities, distinguishing badges or other visible identification shall be displayed by contractor personnel. Contractor personnel, while performing in a Contractor capacity, are prohibited from using their retired or reserve component military rank or title in written or verbal communications associated with the contract under which they provide services. STANDARDS OF CONDUCT Contractor employees providing support to the Government shall conduct themselves in a professional, businesslike manner adhering to high ethical standards. Contractor employees must follow the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch (Codified in 5 C.F.R. Part 2635 and as amended at 76 FR 38547) and local command policy in addition to the standards of conduct policies of the contractor. The Government will not tolerate unethical behavior and behavior that reflects poorly upon the Government, its mission, and its operations. If a contractor employee is uncertain whether contemplated acts or conduct may violate the Standards of Ethical Conduct for Employees of the Executive Branch or local command policy, the contractor employee must contact the Contracting Officer Representative (COR) before engaging in such acts or conduct. CORs will seek advice on ethics issues from their ethics counselor.

The parties are a DoD Military Health System (MHS) component, acting as a HIPAA covered entity, and a DoD contractor, acting as a HIPAA business associate. The HIPAA Rules require BAAs between covered entities and business associates. Implementing this BAA requirement, the applicable DoD HIPAA Issuance (DoD R, paragraph C ) provides that requirements applicable to business associates must be incorporated (or incorporated by reference) into the contract or agreement between the parties. (a) Catchall Definition. Except as provided otherwise in this BAA, the following terms used in this BAA shall have the same meaning as those terms in the DoD HIPAA Rules: Data Aggregation, Designated Record Set, Disclosure, Health Care Operations, Individual, Minimum Necessary, Notice of Privacy Practices (NoPP), Protected Health Information (PHI), Required By Law, Secretary, Security Incident, Subcontractor, Unsecured Protected Health Information, and Use. Breach means actual or possible loss of control, unauthorized disclosure of or unauthorized access to PHI or other PII (which may include, but is not limited to PHI), where 12 Nov 2013 Page 2 of 10 persons other than authorized users gain access or potential access to such information for any purpose other than authorized purposes, where one or more individuals will be adversely affected. The foregoing definition is based on the definition of breach in DoD Privacy Act Issuances as defined herein. Business Associate shall generally have the same meaning as the term business associate in the DoD HIPAA Issuances, and in reference to this BAA, shall mean the contractor. Agreement means this BAA together with the documents and/or other arrangements under which the Business Associate signatory performs services involving access to PHI on behalf of the MHS component signatory to this BAA. Covered Entity shall generally have the same meaning as the term covered entity in the DoD HIPAA Issuances, and in reference to this BAA, shall mean the Government facility(s) and office(s) that are supported under this contract. DHA Privacy Office means the DHA Privacy and Civil Liberties Office. The DHA Privacy Office Director is the HIPAA Privacy and Security Officer for DHA, including the National Capital Region Medical Directorate (NCRMD). DoD HIPAA Issuances means the DoD issuances implementing the HIPAA Rules in the DoD Military Health System (MHS). These issuances are DoD R (2003), DoDI (2009), and DoD R (2007). DoD Privacy Act Issuances means the DoD issuances implementing the Privacy Act, which are DoDD (2007) and DoD R (2007). HHS Breach means a breach that satisfies the HIPAA Breach Rule definition of breach in 45 CFR HIPAA Rules means, collectively, the HIPAA Privacy, Security, Breach and Enforcement Rules, issued by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and codified at 45 CFR Part 160 and Part 164, Subpart E (Privacy), Subpart C (Security), Subpart D (Breach) and Part 160, Subparts C-D (Enforcement), as amended by the

72 Page 72 of modifications to those Rules, implementing the HITECH Act provisions of Pub. L See 78 FR (Jan. 25, 2013) (with corrections at 78 FR (June 7, 2013)).

(c) The Business Associate shall report to Covered Entity any Breach of which it becomes aware, and shall proceed with breach response steps as required by Part V of this BAA. With respect to electronic PHI, the Business Associate shall also respond to any security incident of which it becomes aware in accordance with any Information Assurance provisions of the Agreement. If at any point the Business Associate becomes aware that a security incident involves a Breach, the Business Associate shall immediately initiate breach response as required by part V of this BAA. (d) In accordance with 45 CFR (e)(1)(ii)) and (b)(2), respectively), as applicable, the Business Associate shall ensure that any subcontractors that create, receive, maintain, or transmit PHI on behalf of the Business Associate agree to the same restrictions, conditions, and requirements that apply to the Business Associate with respect to such PHI.

73 Page 73 of 179 minimum necessary standard and corresponding DHA policies and procedures as stated in the DoD HIPAA Issuances. (c) The Business Associate shall not use or disclose PHI in a manner that would violate the DoD HIPAA Issuances or HIPAA Privacy Rules if done by the Covered Entity, except uses and disclosures for the Business Associate s own management and administration and legal responsibilities or for data aggregation services as set forth in the following three paragraphs. (d) Except as otherwise limited in the Agreement, the Business Associate may use PHI for the proper management and administration of the Business Associate or to carry out the legal responsibilities of the Business Associate. The foregoing authority to use PHI does not apply to disclosure of PHI, which is covered in the next paragraph. (e) Except as otherwise limited in the Agreement, the Business Associate may disclose PHI for the proper management and administration of the Business Associate or to carry out the legal responsibilities of the Business Associate, provided that disclosures are required by law, or the Business Associate obtains reasonable assurances from the person to whom the PHI is disclosed that it will remain confidential and used or further disclosed only as required by law or for the purposes for which it was disclosed to the person, and the person notifies the Business Associate of any instances of which it is aware in which the confidentiality of the information has been breached.

V. Breach Response (a) In general. In the event of a breach of PII/PHI held by the Business Associate, the Business Associate shall follow the breach response requirements set forth in this Part V, which is designed to satisfy both the Privacy Act and HIPAA as applicable. If a breach involves PII without PHI, then the Business Associate shall comply with DoD Privacy Act Issuance breach response requirements only; if a breach involves PHI (a subset of PII), then the Business Associate shall comply with both Privacy Act and HIPAA breach response requirements. A breach involving PHI may or may not constitute an HHS Breach. If a breach is not an HHS Breach, then the Business Associate has no HIPAA breach response obligations. In such cases, the Business Associate must still comply with breach response requirements under the DoD Privacy Act Issuances.

74 Page 74 of 179 If the DHA Privacy Office determines that a breach is an HHS Breach, then the Business Associate shall comply with both the HIPAA Breach Rule and DoD Privacy Act Issuances, as directed by the DHA Privacy Office, regardless of whether the breach occurs at DHA or at one of the Service components. If the DHA Privacy Office determines that the breach does not constitute an HHS Breach, then the Business Associate shall comply with DoD Privacy Act Issuances, as directed by the applicable Service-Level Privacy Office. The following provisions of Part V set forth the Business Associate s Privacy Act and HIPAA breach response requirements for all breaches, including but not limited to HHS breaches. This Part V is designed to satisfy the DoD Privacy Act Issuances and the HIPAA Breach Rule as implemented by the DoD HIPAA Issuances. In general, for breach response, the Business Associate shall report the breach to the Covered Entity, assess the breach incident, notify affected individuals, and take mitigation actions as applicable. Because DoD defines breach to include possible (suspected) as well as actual (confirmed) breaches, the Business Associate shall implement these breach response requirements immediately upon the Business Associate s discovery of a possible breach. (b) Government Reporting Provisions The Business Associate shall report the breach within one hour of discovery to the US Computer Emergency Readiness Team (US CERT), and, within 24 hours of discovery, to the DHA Privacy Office and the other parties set forth below. The Business Associate is deemed to have discovered a breach as of the time a breach (suspected or confirmed) is known, or by exercising reasonable diligence would have been known, to any person (other than the person committing it) who is an employee, officer or other agent of the Business Associate. The Business Associate shall submit the US-CERT report using the online form at Before submission to US-CERT, the Business Associate shall save a copy of the on-line report. After submission, the Business Associate shall record the US-CERT Reporting Number. Although only limited information about the breach may be available as of the one hour deadline for submission, the Business Associate shall submit the US- CERT report by the deadline. The Business Associate shall updated information as it is obtained, following the instructions at The Business Associate shall provide a copy of the initial or updated US-CERT report to the DHA Privacy Office and the applicable Service-Level Privacy Office, if requested by either. Business Associate questions about US-CERT reporting shall be directed to the DHA or Service-Level Privacy Office, not the US-CERT office. The Business Associate report due within 24 hours shall be submitted by completing the New Breach Reporting Form DD 2959 at the Breach Response page on the DHA Privacy Office web site and ing that form to, as applicable, the DHA Privacy Office, the Service-Level Privacy Office, the Contracting Officer (CO) and Contracting Officer s Representative (COR) and the Business Associate s DoD point of contact (POC) unless the POC specifies another addressee for breach reporting. Encryption is not required, because Breach Report Forms should not contain PII/PHI. The address for notices to the DHA Privacy Office is provided at the Privacy Office website breach response page. If electronic mail is not available, telephone notification is also acceptable, but all notifications and reports delivered telephonically must be confirmed by as soon as technically feasible. If multiple beneficiaries are affected by a single event or related set of events, then a single reportable breach may be deemed to have occurred, depending on the circumstances. The Business Associate shall inform the DHA Privacy Office as soon as possible if it believes that single event breach response is appropriate; the DHA Privacy Office will determine how the Business Associate shall proceed and, if appropriate, consolidate separately reported breaches for purposes of Business Associate report updates, beneficiary notification, and mitigation. When a Breach Report Form initially submitted is incomplete or incorrect due to unavailable information, or when significant developments require an update, the Business Associate shall submit a revised form or forms, stating the updated status and previous report date(s) and showing any revisions or additions in red text. Examples of updated information the Business Associate shall report include, but are not limited to: confirmation on the exact data elements involved, the root cause of the incident, and any mitigation actions to include, sanctions, training, incident containment, follow-up, etc. The Business Associate shall submit these report updates promptly after the new

75 Page 75 of 179 information becomes available. Prompt reporting of updates is required to allow the DHA Privacy Office to make timely final determinations on any subsequent notifications or reports. The Business Associate shall provide updates to the same parties as required for the initial Breach Reporting Form. The Business Associate is responsible for reporting all information needed by the DHA Privacy Office to make timely and accurate determinations on reports to HHS as required by the HHS Breach Rule and reports to the Defense Privacy and Civil Liberties Office as required by DoD Privacy Act Issuances. In the event the Business Associate is uncertain on how to apply the above requirements, the Business Associate shall consult with the DHA Privacy Office (or the Service-Level Privacy Office, which will consult with the Privacy Office as appropriate) when determinations on applying the above requirements are needed. (c) Individual Notification Provisions If the DHA Privacy Office determines that individual notification is required, the Business Associate shall provide written notification to individuals affected by the breach as soon as possible, but no later than 10 working days after the breach is discovered and the identities of the individuals are ascertained. The 10 day period begins when the Business Associate is able to determine the identities (including addresses) of the individuals whose records were impacted. The Business Associate s proposed notification to be issued to the affected individuals shall be submitted to the parties to which reports are submitted under paragraph V(a) for their review, and for approval by the DHA Privacy Office. Upon request, the Business Associate shall provide the DHA Privacy Office with the final text of the notification letter sent to the affected individuals. If different groups of affected individuals receive different notification letters, then the Business Associate shall provide the text of the letter for each group. (PII shall not be included with the text of the letter(s) provided.) Copies of further correspondence with affected individuals need not be provided unless requested by the Privacy Office. The Business Associate s notification to the individuals, at a minimum, shall include the following: The individual(s) must be advised of what specific data was involved. It is insufficient to simply state that PII has been lost. Where names, Social Security Numbers (SSNs) or truncated SSNs, and Dates of Birth (DOBs) are involved, it is critical to advise the individual that these data elements potentially have been breached. The individual(s) must be informed of the facts and circumstances surrounding the breach. The description should be sufficiently detailed so that the individual clearly understands how the breach occurred. The individual(s) must be informed of what protective actions the Business Associate is taking or the individual can take to mitigate against potential future harm. The notice must refer the individual to the current Federal Trade Commission (FTC) web site pages on identity theft and the FTC s Identity Theft Hotline, toll-free: ID- THEFT ( ); TTY: The individual(s) must also be informed of any mitigation support services (e.g., one year of free credit monitoring, identification of fraud expense coverage for affected individuals, provision of credit freezes, etc.) that the Business Associate may offer affected individuals, the process to follow to obtain those services and the period of time the services will be made available, and contact information (including a phone number, either direct or tollfree, address and postal address) for obtaining more information. Business Associates shall ensure any envelope containing written notifications to affected individuals are clearly labeled to alert the recipient to the importance of its contents, e.g., Data Breach Information Enclosed, and that the envelope is marked with the identity of the Business Associate and/or subcontractor organization that suffered the breach. The letter must also include contact information for a designated POC to include, phone number, address, and postal address. If the Business Associate determines that it cannot readily identify, or will be unable to reach, some affected individuals within the 10 day period after discovering the breach, the Business Associate shall so indicate in the initial or updated Breach Report Form. Within the 10 day period, the Business Associate shall provide the approved

76 Page 76 of 179 notification to those individuals who can be reached. Other individuals must be notified within 10 days after their identities and addresses are ascertained. The Business Associate shall consult with the DHA Privacy Office, which will determine which media notice is most likely to reach the population not otherwise identified or reached. The Business Associate shall issue a generalized media notice(s) to that population in accordance with Privacy Office approval. The Business Associate shall, at no cost to the government, bear any costs associated with a breach of PII/PHI that the Business Associate has caused or is otherwise responsible for addressing. Breaches are not to be confused with security incidents (often referred to as cyber security incidents when electronic information is involved), which may or may not involve a breach of PII/PHI. In the event of a security incident not involving a PII/PHI breach, the Business Associate shall follow applicable DoD Information Assurance requirements under its Agreement. If at any point the Business Associate finds that a cyber security incident involves a PII/PHI breach (suspected or confirmed), the Business Associate shall immediately initiate the breach response procedures set forthhere. The Business Associate shall also continue to follow any required cyber security incident response procedures to the extent needed to address security issues, as determined by DoD/DHA. VI. Termination (a) Termination. Noncompliance by the Business Associate (or any of its staff, agents, or subcontractors) with any requirement in this BAA may subject the Business Associate to termination under any applicable default or other termination provision of the Agreement. (b) Effect of Termination. (1) If the Agreement has records management requirements, the Business Associate shall handle such records in accordance with the records management requirements. If the Agreement does not have records management requirements, the records should be handled in accordance with paragraphs (2) and (3) below. If the Agreement has provisions for transfer of records and PII/PHI to a successor Business Associate, or if DHA gives directions for such transfer, the Business Associate shall handle such records and information in accordance with such Agreement provisions or DHA direction. (2) If the Agreement does not have records management requirements, except as provided in the following paragraph (3), upon termination of the Agreement, for any reason, the Business Associate shall return or destroy all PHI received from the Covered Entity, or created or received by the Business Associate on behalf of the Covered Entity that the Business Associate still maintains in any form. This provision shall apply to PHI that is in the possession of subcontractors or agents of the Business Associate. The Business Associate shall retain no copies of the PHI. (3) If the Agreement does not have records management provisions and the Business Associate determines that returning or destroying the PHI is infeasible, the Business Associate shall provide to the Covered Entity notification of the conditions that make return or destruction infeasible. Upon mutual agreement of the Covered Entity and the Business Associate that return or destruction of PHI is infeasible, the Business Associate shall extend the protections of the Agreement to such PHI and limit further uses and disclosures of such PHI to those purposes that make the return or destruction infeasible, for so long as the Business Associate maintains such PHI. VII. Miscellaneous (a) Survival. The obligations of Business Associate under the Effect of Termination provision of this BAA shall survive the termination of the Agreement. (b) Interpretation. Any ambiguity in the Agreement shall be resolved in favor of a meaning that permits the Covered Entity and the Business Associate to comply with the HIPAA Rules and the DoD HIPAA Rules.

The contract closeout process includes activities such as processing de-obligation modifications, obtaining contractor and requiring activity concurrence, preparing the DD-Form 1594 (Contract Completion Statement), and preparing closed files for archiving. Support contractors may perform additional administrative duties, including filing and processing simple administrative modifications. Performing these functions require the contractor employees to have access to the contract file. Therefore, information you provide to the Government or information already in the possession of the Government may be viewed by these support contractors in the course of performing contract close-out functions. The information that may be made available to the contractor may include pricing and technical proposals and performance information. Naval Medical Logistics Command has signed Non-Disclosure Agreements with each support contractor employee and has required both contractors to provide a Conflict of Interest Mitigation Plan to ensure these employees are firewalled from all business development activity. By submission of its proposal that was accepted by the Government, the contractor and its subcontractors consent to access of their business sensitive/confidential or proprietary data by the Government s support contractor personnel in order to perform closeout services. CLAUSES INCORPORATED BY FULL TEXT SUP Contractor Unclassified Access to Federally Controlled Facilities, Sensitive Information, Information Technology (IT) Systems or Protected Health Information (July 2013) Homeland Security Presidential Directive (HSPD)-12, requires government agencies to develop and implement Federal security standards for Federal employees and contractors. The Deputy Secretary of Defense Directive-Type Memorandum (DTM) "DoD Implementation of Homeland Security Presidential Directive - 12 (HSPD-12)" dated November 26, 2008 (or its subsequent DoD instruction) directs implementation of HSPD-12. This clause is in accordance with HSPD-12 and its implementing directives. APPLICABILITY This clause applies to contractor employees requiring physical access to any area of a federally controlled base, facility or activity and/or requiring access to a DoN or DoD computer/network/system to perform certain unclassified sensitive duties. This clause also applies to contractor employees who access Privacy Act and Protected Health Information, provide support associated with fiduciary duties, or perform duties that have been identified by

78 Page 78 of 179 DON as National Security Position, as advised by the command security manager. It is the responsibility of the responsible security officer of the command/facility where the work is performed to ensure compliance. Each contractor employee providing services at a Navy Command under this contract is required to obtain a Department of Defense Common Access Card (DoD CAC). Additionally, depending on the level of computer/network access, the contract employee will require a successful investigation as detailed below. ACCESS TO FEDERAL FACILITIES Per HSPD-12 and implementing guidance, all contractor employees working at a federally controlled base, facility or activity under this clause will require a DoD CAC. When access to a base, facility or activity is required contractor employees shall in-process with the Navy Command's Security Manager upon arrival to the Navy Command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual's performance under the contract. ACCESS TO DOD IT SYSTEMS In accordance with SECNAV M , contractor employees who require access to DoN or DoD networks are categorized as IT-I, IT-II, or IT-III. The IT-II level, defined in detail in SECNAV M , includes positions which require access to information protected under the Privacy Act, to include Protected Health Information (PHI). All contractor employees under this contract who require access to Privacy Act protected information are therefore categorized no lower than IT-II. IT Levels are determined by the requiring activity's Command Information Assurance Manager. Contractor employees requiring privileged or IT-I level access, (when specified by the terms of the contract) require a Single Scope Background Investigation (SSBI) which is a higher level investigation than the National Agency Check with Law and Credit (NACLC) described below. Due to the privileged system access, a SSBI suitable for High Risk public trusts positions is required. Individuals who have access to system control, monitoring, or administration functions (e.g. system administrator, database administrator) require training and certification to Information Assurance Technical Level 1, and must be trained and certified on the Operating System or Computing Environment they are required to maintain. Access to sensitive IT systems is contingent upon a favorably adjudicated background investigation. When access to IT systems is required for performance of the contractor employee's duties, such employees shall in-process with the Navy Command's Security Manager and Information Assurance Manager upon arrival to the Navy command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual's performance under the contract. Completion and approval of a System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) form is required for all individuals accessing Navy Information Technology resources. The decision to authorize access to a government IT system/network is inherently governmental. The contractor supervisor is not authorized to sign the SAAR-Ni therefore, the government employee with knowledge of the system/network access required or the COR shall sign the SAAR-N as the "supervisor". The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the Navy Command's Security Manager at least 30 days prior to the individual's start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual's start date may result in delaying the individual's start date. When required to maintain access to required IT systems or networks, the contractor shall ensure that all employees requiring access complete annual Information Assurance (IA) training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. The Contractor's Security Representative shall contact the Command Security Manager for guidance when reinvestigations are required. INTERIM ACCESS The Navy Command' s Security Manager may authorize issuance of a DoD CAC and interim access to a DoN or DoD unclassified computer/network upon a favorable review of the investigative questionnaire and advance favorable fingerprint results. When the results of the investigation are received and a favorable determination is not made, the contractor employee working on the contract under interim access will be denied access to the computer network and this denial will not relieve the contractor of his/her responsibility to perform. DENIAL OR TERMINATION OF ACCESS

79 Page 79 of 179 The potential consequences of any requirement under this clause including denial or termination of physical or system access in no way relieves the contractor from the requirement to execute performance under the contract within the timeframes specified in the contract. Contractors shall plan ahead in processing their employees and subcontractor employees. The contractor shall insert this clause in all subcontracts when the subcontractor is permitted to have unclassified access to a federally controlled facility, federally-controlled information system/network and/or to government information, meaning information not authorized for public release. CONTRACTOR'S SECURITY REPRESENTATIVE The contractor shall designate an employee to serve as the Contractor's Security Representative. Within three work days after contract award, the contractor shall provide to the requiring activity's Security Manager and the Contracting Officer, in writing, the name, title, address and phone number for the Contractor's Security Representative. The Contractor's Security Representative shall be the primary point of contact on any security matter. The Contractor's Security Representative shall not be replaced or removed without prior notice to the Contracting Officer and Command Security Manager. BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION REQUIREMENTS AND SECURITY APPROVAL PROCESS FOR CONTRACTORS ASSIGNED TO NATIONAL SECURITY POSITIONS OR PERFORMING SENSITIVE DUTIES Navy security policy requires that all positions be given a sensitivity value based on level of risk factors to ensure appropriate protective measures are applied. Navy recognizes contractor employees under this contract as Non- Critical Sensitive [ADP/IT-II] when the contract scope of work require physical access to a federally controlled base, facility or activity and/or requiring access to a DoD computer/network, to perform unclassified sensitive duties. This designation is also applied to contractor employees who access Privacy Act and Protected Health Information (PHI), provide support associated with fiduciary duties, or perform duties that have been identified by DON as National Security Positions. At a minimum, each contractor employee must be a US citizen and have a favorably completed NACLC to obtain a favorable determination for assignment to a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position. The NACLC consists of a standard NAC and a FBI fingerprint check plus law enforcement checks and credit check. Each contractor employee filling a non-critical sensitive or IT-II position is required to complete: * SF-86 Questionnaire for National Security Positions (or equivalent OPM investigative product) * Two FD-258 Applicant Fingerprint Cards (or an electronic fingerprint submission) * Original Signed Release Statements Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual's start date shall result in delaying the individual's start date. Background investigations shall be reinitiated as required to ensure investigations remain current (not older than 10 years) throughout the contract performance period. The Contractor's Security Representative shall contact the Command Security Manager for guidance when reinvestigations are required. Regardless of their duties or IT access requirements ALL contractor employees shall in-process with the Navy Command's Security Manager upon arrival to the Navy command and shall out-process prior to their departure at the completion of the individual's performance under the contract. Employees requiring IT access shall also check-in and check-out with the Navy Command's Information Assurance Manager. Completion and approval of a System Authorization Access Request Navy (SAAR-N) form is required for all individuals accessing Navy Information Technology resources. The SAAR-N shall be forwarded to the Navy Command's Security Manager at least 30 days prior to the individual's start date. Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual's start date shall result in delaying the individual's start date. The contractor shall ensure that each contract employee requiring access to IT systems or networks complete annual Information Assurance (IA) training, and maintain a current requisite background investigation. Contractor employees shall accurately complete the required investigative forms prior to submission to the Navy Command Security Manager. The Navy Command's Security Manager will review the submitted documentation for completeness prior to submitting it to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). Suitability/security issues identified by the Navy may render the contractor employee ineligible for the assignment. An unfavorable determination made by the Navy is final (subject to SF-86 appeal procedures) and such a determination does not

80 Page 80 of 179 relieve the contractor from meeting any contractual obligation under the contract. The Navy Command's Security Manager will forward the required forms to OPM for processing. Once the investigation is complete, the results will be forwarded by OPM to the DON Central Adjudication Facility (CAF) for a determination. If the contractor employee already possesses a current favorably adjudicated investigation, the contractor shall submit a Visit Authorization Request (VAR) via the Joint Personnel Adjudication System (JPAS) or a hard copy VAR directly from the contractor's Security Representative. Although the contractor will take JPAS "Owning" role over the contractor employee, the Navy Command will take JPAS "Servicing" role over the contractor employee during the hiring process and for the duration of assignment under that contract. The contractor shall include the IT Position Category per SECNAV M for each employee designated on a VAR. The VAR requires annual renewal for the duration of the employee's performance under the contract. BACKGROUND INVESTIGATION REQUIREMENTS AND SECURITY APPROVAL PROCESS FOR CONTRACTORS ASSIGNED TO OR PERFORMING NON-SENSITIVE DUTIES Contractor employee whose work is unclassified and non-sensitive (e.g., performing certain duties such as lawn maintenance, vendor services, etc...) and who require physical access to publicly accessible areas to perform those duties shall meet the following minimum requirements: * Must be either a US citizen or a US permanent resident with a minimum of 3 years legal residency in the United States (as required by The Deputy Secretary of Defense DTM or its subsequent DoD instruction) and * Must have a favorably completed National Agency Check with Written Inquiries (NACI) including a FBI fingerprint check prior to installation access. To be considered for a favorable trustworthiness determination, the Contractor's Security Representative must submit for all employees each of the following: * SF-85 Questionnaire for Non-Sensitive Positions * Two FD-258 Applicant Fingerprint Cards (or an electronic fingerprint submission) * Original Signed Release Statements The contractor shall ensure each individual employee has a current favorably completed National Agency Check with Written Inquiries (NACI) or ensure successful FBI fingerprint results have been gained and investigation has been processed with OPM. Failure to provide the required documentation at least 30 days prior to the individual's start date may result in delaying the individual's start date. * Consult with your Command Security Manager and Information Assurance Manager for local policy when IT-III (non-sensitive) access is required for non-us citizens outside the United States.

As described in the DISR IPv6 standards profile, application vendors are expected to scan and test their code for IPv6 compliance and provide a letter of compliance indicating to what degree they comply. The letter shall be in vendor format and describe the standards used for testing and the results of the scans. IPv6 'capable' is defined as having the capability of receiving, processing and forwarding IPv6 packets and/or interfacing with other IPv6 capable systems/devices and in a manner similar to IPv4. In order to demonstrate IPv6 compliance, the vendor should submit the following documentation: Provide a diagram showing IPv6 core configuration, to include IPv6 addressing, internal network connectivity and topology, external network connectivity, and IPv6 traffic flow; Submit a list of core components to include vendor/manufacturer IPv6 compliance; Submit a report that illustrates testing of IPv6 compliance, to include test scripting, logs and results Information Assurance Vulnerability Management (IAVM) IAVM is focused on maintaining a secure platform as new vulnerabilities and exploits are discovered and released through various software developers and security agencies. The core tool of successful IAVM is the Information Assurance Vulnerability Alert (IAVA). The DoD releases IAVAs for local action on the various platforms across the enterprise network. Each Navy Healthcare Facility is responsible for managing their local network. Most DoD IAVAs originate from a real world event such as a patch release or vulnerability notification from a software vendor (e.g. Windows or Sun patch release), or a US-CERT released from the CERT Coordination Center at Carnegie Mellon University. To have an effective IAVM program, vendors must be proactive in monitoring emerging threats. Some recommended sources for IAVM support are: General Vulnerability alerts, all platforms: Microsoft security resources: SUN Microsystems Security resources: cgi/show.pl?target=security/sec As part of the IAVM program, the contractor shall provide a primary and secondary point of contact for compliance actions. The point of contact shall provide, upon receipt of a vulnerability message, an acknowledgement of that receipt. The vendor shall thoroughly test all mitigations for the vulnerability, and upon applying the mitigation to the system, report compliance. Receipt and compliance messages shall occur within the stipulated time window, as stated in the vulnerability message or other official notification Any vendor interested in meeting this requirement shall have a documented process to demonstrate an organizational culture embracing security throughout the system lifecycle.

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers: The Government will evaluate each factor independently of each other and each factor listed is of equal importance. 1. Technical Approach 2. Past Performance 3. Business 4. Pricing The Technical Approach evaluation factor is more important than the Past Performance evaluation factor. The Past Performance evaluation factor is more important than the Business evaluation factor. The Business evaluation factor is more important the Price evaluation factor. The combination of the Technical Approach evaluation factor, the Past Performance evaluation factor and the Business evaluation factor is significantly more important than the Price evaluation factor. (b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s). (c) A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.

158 Page 158 of 179 (End of provision) ADDENDUM TO EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS (OCT 2014) ADDENDUM TO EVALUATION--COMMERCIAL ITEMS THIS SECTION IS FOR SOLICITATION PURPOSES ONLY. THIS SECTION WILL BE PHYSICALLY REMOVED FROM ANY RESULTANT AWARD, BUT WILL BE DEEMED INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE. THIS ADDENDUM SUPPLEMENTS FAR A Technical Evaluation Panel will evaluate all proposals based on the proposals/documentation provided. The evaluations will be based on the Evaluation Criteria for Award. Evaluations will be conducted utilizing a competitive best value basis, using tradeoff among price and non- price factors. 2. The Government intends to award a minimum of three Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) Multiple Award Task Order (MATO) contracts resulting from the issuance of this solicitation to the responsible offerors submitting a proposal that are determined most advantageous to the Government, price and other factors considered. The evaluation of proposals will be based on an evaluation of Technical, Past Performance, Business, and Pricing volumes submitted by each offeror. The Government intends to make multiple contract awards under this solicitation to allow for maximum competition for future task order awards. 3. In the event that two or more proposals are determined not to have any substantial non-price differences a contract award may be made to the lower priced proposal. It should be noted that a contract award may be made to other than the lowest priced offeror if the Government determines that a price premium is warranted due to the quality of Technical and/or Past Performance volume(s). A price premium may also be considered to facilitate the award of additional contracts, thus gaining the advantages associated with increased competition for future task orders. 4. The Government reserves the right to award a contract without negotiations. Offerors are cautioned that each initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms. 5. The Government is explicitly raising the prescribed file content and submission requirements from what might be argued as a matter of "form", to one that is materially substantive in that it reflects upon the offeror's ability and willingness to follow instructions and fulfill its obligations. Upon receipt of proposals, and prior to actively engaging in proposal evaluation, a compliance review will be conducted to determine if each offeror met the submission requirements for each volume as outlined in FAR Instructions to Offerors -- Commercial Items of the solicitation. In order to be eligible for award, a proposal must comply in all material respects with the terms and conditions set forth in this solicitation. Failure to properly submit any items listed in FAR Instructions to Offerors -- Commercial Items of the solicitation may result in rejection of the offeror's entire proposal. 7. EVALUATION FACTORS Technical, Past Performance, Business and Pricing volumes submitted in response to this solicitation will be evaluated in accordance with the evaluation factors The Technical evaluation factor is more important than the Past Performance evaluation factor. The Past Performance evaluation factor is more important than the Business evaluation factor. The combination of the Technical evaluation factor, the Past Performance evaluation factor and the Business evaluation factor is significantly more important than the Pricing evaluation factor The Business volume will be evaluated and determined to be either complete, incomplete, or substantially incomplete. An offeror will be eliminated from award consideration if they have submitted a Business volume that

159 Page 159 of 179 is considered to be substantially incomplete. Awards will only be made to contractors whom have submitted complete Business volumes. An incomplete Business volume may be revised during discussions (if discussions are held and the offeror is in the competitive range) and then may be considered to be complete Information will be considered for evaluation in the volume where it is provided. For example, past performance information provided in the Technical volume will be part of the Technical Evaluation. The same past performance information will only be considered in the Past Performance Evaluation if it is also provided in the past performance volume Technical. Based on the comprehensiveness, depth, and quality of the Technical volume, the Government will assess the risk to the Government of future non-performance of solicitation requirements by the offeror in accordance with the solicitation instructions for Technical volume. Failure to appropriately detail any business relationship (i.e. subcontractor, partner, mentor, protégé, parent company, sister company, etc.) as described in sections , and of Addendum to is considered a weakness in the Technical volume. Failure to address or appropriately address FAR is also considered a weakness. The Government will not assume that the contractor possesses any capability or knowledge unless it is specified in the Technical volume Past Performance. The Government will first evaluate the offeror's Past Performance Information Sheets to determine whether the company has provided relevant Past Performance. In order for services to be considered relevant they must meet the criteria in the table below. A determination of relevant or not relevant will be made for each Past Performance Information Sheet. A relevancy determination may be made based solely on the information provided on the Past Performance Information Sheet. Also, Past Performance information may be determined not relevant after obtaining additional information from the customer POC named on a Past Performance Information sheet Relevancy shall be evaluated as follows: Rating Definition Past Performance that is related to the performance and delivery of medical coding, auditing and training services outlined in the PWS;. Services must have been performed by the contractor, subcontractor, Relevant key personnel, team member, etc. submitting the quote; and Performance cited must be current, or have ended not more than three years prior to the closing date of the solicitation. Past Performance that is not related to the performance and delivery of medical coding, auditing and training services outlined in the PWS, or has been determined not relevant in accordance with Addendum to Not Relevant FAR (2.3.), Instructions to Offerors; Performance cited is not current, meaning it ended more than three years prior to the closing date of the solicitation The Government may contact the customer POCs listed on the Past Performance Information Sheets. The Government is not restricted from evaluating and considering other relevant Past Performance information in its possession and may contact references for that information. Past Performance information may be obtained from any other sources available to the Government, such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) and interviews with Contracting Officer s Representatives The Government will review relevant Past Performance information and determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to the Performance Confidence Assessment. This evaluation shall entail an examination of items such as but not limited to contract start-up, adherence to QASP, submission and maintenance of worker requirements, and performance discrepancy resolution. Greater consideration will be given to medical coding, auditing and training services closely related to those required under this solicitation as outlined in the scope of the solicitation. Greater consideration will be given to services provided by the offeror and the offeror s key personnel. Greater consideration will also be given to performance provided by an SBA approved joint venture(s) if the offeror was a

160 Page 160 of 179 member of the SBA approved joint venture(s). If the offeror is proposing as an SBA approved joint venture, greater consideration will be given to services provided by members of that joint venture. The Past Performance Confidence assessment will be evaluated as follows: Rating Substantial Confidence Satisfactory Confidence Limited Confidence No Confidence Unknown Confidence (Neutral) Definition Based on the offeror s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Based on the offeror s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Based on the offeror s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Based on the offeror s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned Business. The Business volume will be evaluated for completeness. The offeror's Business volume will be examined to ensure that it has been completed in accordance with the solicitation instructions for Business proposals section Pricing. Reasonableness- The contractor s Pricing will be examined to determine the degree to which the total proposed price compares to the price a reasonable prudent person would expect to incur for the same or similar services. Unit prices may also be examined to identify unusually high or low price estimates, inconsistent pricing patterns, and/or potential misunderstandings of the solicitation requirements. The closer the merits of the Past Performance and Technical volumes are to one another, the greater will be the importance of Price in making a contract award determination. Since contract awards will be made on a best value basis, it should be noted that awards may be made to other than the lowest priced offeror if the Government determines that a price premium is warranted due to the quality of the Past Performance and/or Technical volume(s) and the proposed price is determined to be reasonable. A price premium may also be considered to facilitate the number of contract awards to meet the requirements of Instructions and Evaluation Criteria, (2). Please note that completeness of the Business volume does not warrant a price premium Lot Awards. After contract award decisions have been made, lot award determinations will be made. Only those offerors that were selected for an IDIQ contract award in accordance with the evaluation criteria stated in Instructions and Evaluation Criteria of the solicitation will be evaluated for Lot Awards. Lots consist of initial quantities to be awarded at the time basic contracts are awarded. Reasonableness will be evaluated for the total price for each lot. Proposed prices and the labor mix proposed will be evaluated to ensure understanding of the solicitation requirements. Lot awards may be made to other than the lowest priced proposal. A premium may be considered to facilitate the minimum award of lots or due to Technical Merit. Each contract awardee will be awarded a minimum of one lot. The number of lots, amount of services required, and the total dollar value of the lots awarded to each contract awardee may vary. Within the parameters established by the solicitation and the procedures described therein, the Contracting Officer has broad discretion in determining which contract awardee should receive a lot award Lot Awards will be evaluated with consideration to the following factors: Reasonableness. The offeror s Pricing volume will be examined to determine the degree to which the proposed monthly prices and total price for each lot compare to the prices a reasonable prudent person would expect

161 Page 161 of 179 to incur for the same or similar services. The Contracting Officer reserves the right to award at a premium, provided that the proposed price is determined to be reasonable Technical Merit: The offeror s proposed labor mix shall demonstrate their ability to fulfill the workload outlined in the PWS.

Line items are organized into contract line items, subline items, and exhibit line items. Separate line items should be established to account for separate pricing, identification (see section of the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement), deliveries, or funding. The Government recognizes that the line item structure in this solicitation may not conform to every offeror's practices. Failure to correct these issues can result in difficulties in accounting for deliveries and processing payments. Therefore, offerors are invited to propose an alternative line item structure for items on which bids, proposals, or quotes are requested in this solicitation to ensure that the resulting contract structure is economically and administratively advantageous to the Government and the Contractor. (b) If an alternative line item structure is proposed, the structure must be consistent with subpart of the Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement and PGI A sample solicitation line-item structure and a corresponding offer of a proposed alternative line-item structure follow.
