Description

Department of Veterans Affairs Date: 15 July 2016 From: Veterans Health Care System of Ozarks (VHSO) RFI Notice: VA256-16-N-0709 Notice Type: Notice of intent to sole source The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Veterans Healthcare System Ozarks (Fayetteville, AR) has a requirement/need for nursing home services in Jasper, AR (Newton County). This requirement was previously awarded to a local vendor in Newton County Arkansas. The Government intends to issue a firm-fixed-price contract, on a sole source basis to Newton County Healthcare Association, LLC Jasper, AR. Nursing home facilities in the Community Nursing Home (CNH) program shall ensure that care meets the health needs and promotes the maximum well-being of VA patients. Nursing home care will be furnished to ensure the total medical, nursing, and psychosocial needs of VA beneficiaries. All nursing home facilities in VA's CNH program must have current Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) certification (Medicare and/or Medicaid) and a State nursing home license. VA developed quality of care standards utilizing CMS inspection criteria that are followed by VA in its selection of nursing homes. See VHA Handbook 1143.2, "VHA Community Nursing Home Oversight Procedures (June 4, 2004) a copy of which is available at: http://www.va.gov/vhapublications/publications.cfm?pub=2. VA often has a particular need for specialty care services in the CNH program. The VA requires CNHs to have bed capacity to ensure their ability to take referrals when requested. The CNH also must be able to accept VA referrals in a timely fashion (ideally within 24 hours of request). Provider visits will be available at the rate of one (1) visit per month. Laboratory, x-ray, and other special services will be available to VA patients as needed. In addition, the care provided will include room, meals, nursing care, primary medical care, and other services or supplies commensurate with the VA-authorized level of care, without extra charge. Duly authorized representatives of VA will provide quality oversight visits to veterans placed to assure continuity of care and to assist in the veterans' transition back into the community. These visits do not substitute nor relieve the CNH in any way of the responsibility for the daily care and medical treatment of the veteran. The per diem rate(s) established in this BOA will include the cost of primary medical care, one (1) provider visit per month and needed consultation, drugs and routine supplies, laboratory, x-ray, and other special services authorized by VA, unless otherwise specifically accepted (see Schedule of Items in this BOA for details regarding per diem rates and coverage). Full attention shall be given to motivating and educating patients to achieve and maintain independence in the activities of daily living. Every effort shall be made to keep patients ambulatory and to achieve an optimal level of self-care. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive quotes; however, interested parties may submit a capability statement that includes technical specifications of services, demonstrating ability to provide services described herein. Responses under this notice must be emailed by Thursday, July 21 at 12:00 PM CST. Information received will be considered solely for the purpose of determining whether to conduct a competitive procurement. A determination not to compete this and future requirement, based upon responses to this notice, is solely within the discretion of the Government. The Government will not be responsible for any cost incurred by interesting parties in responding to this notice. The Government is not obligated and will not pay for any information received from potential sources as a result of this synopsis. Please email, Sheronda Stewart at sheronda.stewart@va.gov with responses or questions regarding this requirement. This notice will close on Thursday, July 21 at 12:00 PM CST.
