Additional Questions for Solicitation 15BCTS22Q00000027 (Telehealth MAT Services)

Question 1: Will the requirement by NY State that providers are to initiate care face to face and be part of a specific registry of care providers doing MAT in order to provide teleMAT be a requirement of this contract?

Response: All services must comply with the Statement of Work but must also comply with any federal, state, and local laws and regulations. In that regard, practitioners must practice in a manner consistent with their professional and regulatory standards.

Question 2: Question 1 under the LPTA section of “Telehealth MAT Section 2.1 Continuation of SF-1449” asks to "Provide evidence of ability to deliver MAT services by telehealth only." In order to satisfy this requirement will you be seeking anything other than evidence that we have providers licensed in each listed state?

Response: This requirement will be evaluated based on a Quoter's ability to utilize telecommunications and digital communication technologies for the delivery of MAT services to offenders by practitioners licensed, or otherwise permitted to practice, in the various states where services will be rendered.
