He holds the most complete knowledge of the data and their appropriate interpretation.

Specifically this study shall analyze the differences in quality of care as described by race/ethnicity and by income level within the CoE and predictors of differences in quality of care and satisfaction shall be explored and between race/ethnic group and income group compared with like differences in the benchmark data, i.e. Commonwealth Fund Survey and CoE Community Comparison data ? Anderson, et al. 2002, using analysis of covariance methods adjusting for co-variables and by tests of means and proportions. A fixed price contract shall be awarded in accordance with FAR Subpart 13 Simplified Acquisition Procedures.
