Suicide Hotline: Be a Hero Save a Hero Innovation
Added: Jul 19, 2010 3:46 pm Introduction This Request for Information (RFI) is for information and planning purposes only and shall not be construed as a solicitation or as an obligation on the part of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). The purpose of this RFI is to identify qualified contractors who are able to meet VA's requirements, determine if commercial items are available or, could be modified to meet VA's requirements, determine the appropriate contract type i.e., firm fixed-price or cost-reimbursement or time and material, understand commercial pricing practices and other market information readily available. The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) is seeking potential sources to enter into a contract for the Suicide Hotline: Be a Hero Save a Hero Innovation, #247 VHA/OI&T. Background Veterans Health Administration together with VA's Office of Information and Technology is sponsoring an Information Technology Innovation Program. VA intends to retain its "innovative spirit" among those employees involved with medical informational technology support and developed the Health Information Technology Program to strengthen this important aspect. VA selected 26 innovations prototypes for development out of 6500 submissions. These innovation prototypes will undergo an evaluation of the functional prototype which may result in further development for a VA-wide deployment. The Suicide Hotline: Be a Hero Save a Hero project is one of the 26 innovations selected for prototype and evaluation. Currently, the VA operates a Veterans Suicide Hotline that provides crisis intervention and counseling for veterans (patients). Patients are not able to access the suicide hotline because they do not remember the telephone number. VA learned in a brief survey of the patients accessing the VA medical center's emergency department that patients were not aware of the suicide hotline; it's slogan or telephone number. Comments from patients included: 1. "The number is on my refrigerator" 2. "I can't find it in my wallet" 3. "I would like to have it on my cell phone" 4. "I don't know where it is at" The goal of the innovation is to increase the awareness and availability of the suicide hotline and contact information. This will be completes tough a VA Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) alert to VA healthcare providers to actively engage with patients and discuss the VA's Suicide Hotline, to be developed locally as well as the identification and purchase of software and/or services to allow VA employees to send the Suicide Hotline number to Veterans cell phones, smart phones, etc. Requirements Purchase services and/or software to provide the capabilities to transmit the Suicide Hotline number to Veterans (and caretakers) cell phones, smart phones, etc. This will be done at least monthly to the patient's who opt in. It will include the Cincinnati VA telephone number as well as a changing inspirational message. Patients who are at high risk for suicide may be texted more often and kept in a different sub group.
