- Description
- Request for Information: The Department of Veterans Affairs Central Office (VACO) offers a complex nationwide healthcare system composed of 152 medical centers and their respective microsystems to veterans who meet the criteria for care. To continually evaluate and strengthen this healthcare system, Veterans Health Administration (VHA) operates a complex Quality Management and Improvement program that is supported by data abstracted from identified medical records using an external peer review format. This opportunity is composed of three major elements that intertwine to provide reliable and valid data for quality of care evaluation and improvement: development of the data points to be collected based on VHA need, current literature, strong medical evidence, external comparators; collection of the approved data by licensed or credentialed professionals (e.g. Registered Nurses, Registered Health Information Technicians, etc.) at the various VHA Medical Centers and via remote access to the medical records obtained from that Medical Center; scoring and aggregation of that data with reports outlined in the format required by the VHA. Underlying all of these processes is a very strong expectation of data security and maintenance of patient confidentiality that meets or exceeds the VHA requirements. Interested firms should provide company profile including qualification statement (i.e., Small Business, Small Disadvantaged Business, Veterans-Owned or Women-Owned Business, or if firms have a GSA Federal Supply Schedule). The detailed qualifications statements from interested sources are to be submitted via email to Ms. Anna Lythgoe at Anna.Lythgoe@mail.va.gov by April 13, 2007. Please reference RFI number VA-101-07-RI-0276.
