I. INTRODUCTION
A. GENERAL
This Guide presents procedures for the preparation of Contractor's reimbursement claims under (1) cost-reimbursement type contracts; (2) the cost-reimbursement portions of fixed-price contracts; (3) letter contracts which provide for reimbursement of costs; (4) time and material contracts; and (5) labor-hour contracts. The term "cost-reimbursement type contracts" as used in this Guide includes all of the foregoing contractual arrangements.
B. DESK AUDIT
To expedite final payment on contracts subject to desk audit, the contractor may be required to provide the information set forth in III, C, of this guide.
C. PRESCRIBED GOVERNMENT FORMS
Standard Form 1034 "Public Voucher for Purchases and Services Other Than Personal" (Figure 1), and Standard Form 1035, "Public Voucher for Purchases and Services Other Than Personal - Continuation Sheet" (Figure 2), should be utilized by Contractors to show the amount claimed for reimbursement under cost-reimbursement type contracts, and to provide the necessary supporting detail, respectively. The SF 1035 may also be used to furnish any additional information as may be required by the Contracting Officer in accordance with the terms of the contract. The voucher and continuation sheet may be on reproduced copies of the forms providing they conform to the official Government forms in format and are marked "original".
The Contractor may attach to the SF 1034, Public Vouchers for Purchases and Services Other Than Personal, Form HHS-646, Financial Report of Individual Project/Contract, or self-designed form may be used if it contains the information required by this Guide and is otherwise acceptable to the Contracting Officer.

(9) Unless otherwise required by the contract, insert the major elements of incurred cost which are defined as follows:
(1) Direct Costs
(a) Direct Labor: This consists of salaries and wages for direct performance of the contract.
(b) Fringe Benefits: This represents fringe benefits applicable to direct labor and billed as direct cost. Fringe benefits included in indirect costs should not be identified here.
(c) Capitalized Nonexpendable Equipment: This represents personal property of a capital nature;
i.e., property acquired at a cost of $1000 or more and that has a service life of more than two years.
Form HHS 565, Report of Accountable Property as outlined in the HHS publication "Contractor's Guide for control of Government Property" will accompany the contractor's public voucher (SF 1034/SF 1035) as required.

(e) Premium Pay: This is remuneration in excess of the basic hourly rate.
(f) Consultant's Fee: These are fees paid to consultants. List names, time, and charges for the current billing period. If required by the terms and conditions of the contract, cite the applicable COA number.

(h) Other: List all other direct costs in total unless significant in amount. If significant, list costs elements and dollar amount separately; i.e., subcontracts.
2. Indirect Costs
(a) Overhead: Cite the formula (rate and bass) in effect during the time the costs were incurred and for which reimbursement is claimed.
(10) Insert the current costs claimed by major cost elements. Costs claimed for reimbursement can be only those amounts that are consistent with the term "costs" as defined in allowable cost and payment clause. Where it is found that amounts claimed do not meet this definition, such costs together with their associated costs and fee will be disallowed. All adjustments included herein must be explained in detail.
(11) Insert the cumulative costs claimed to date by major cost elements.
(12) Costs claimed for cost-typed subcontracts must be supported by information similar to the SF 1035 for each subcontractor. Costs for fixed-price subcontracts shall be on the basis of items delivered or services received, accepted and paid by the prime contractor.
(13) Insert the total costs for the current and cumulative periods.
(14) If the contract provides for an incentive or fixed-fee, insert the fee earned for the current and cumulative periods and the formula for such computation; e.g., if payment of the fee is based on a percentage of costs, the target incentive fee or fixed-fee earned shall be determined by applying the percentage ration of target incentive fee or fixed-fee to the total estimated cost of the contractor. However after payment of 85% of the fee, the Contracting Officer may withhold further payment of fee to establish a reserve to protect the interests of the Government. This reserve may not exceed 15% of the total fee, or $100,000, whichever is less.
For Example
Contract Estimated Cost $100,000 Fixed-Fee 6,000 Total CPFF $106,000
Maximum Fee Payable $ 5,100 (85% of 6,000)
Fixed-Fee $ 6,000 - 6% Estimated Cost $100,000
Therefore, fixed-fee may be billed at 6% of actual costs incurred until the maximum fee of $5,100 has been paid. Any fee withheld is payable upon submission of appropriate closing documents after final audit of the contract has been completed and all audit exceptions have been resolved.
(15) Insert the total costs claimed and the fee due for the current ad cumulative periods.
(16) If applicable, resubmission of any previously claimed amounts which were suspended should be shown below the current amount claimed and footnoted to cite the number of the public voucher on which the deduction was made and the date and number of the related suspension notice.
Suspensions from which the contractor has successfully appealed shall be identified by referencing the Contracting Officer's letter of approval.
(17) Insert the current amount claimed. Transfer this amount to SF 1034.
III. GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
A. Costs Requiring Prior Authorization and Approval The contractor should be aware of the requirements for prior written approval from the Contracting Officer for certain costs (e.g., premium pay, foreign travel). Whenever the voucher includes such costs not authorized by the contract, reference must be made to the Contracting Officer's Authorization letter (COA).
B. Withholding and Releases of Contract Reserves Contractual provisions covering fees, patents, royalties, etc., usually provide for the accumulation of a withholding reserve until certain contract requirements are met to the satisfaction of the Contracting Officer. It is the contractor's responsibility to include appropriate adjustments in his reimbursement claims to cover the required accumulation and release of contract withholding reserves. The contractor should resolve any questions regarding the amount of these reserves with the Contracting Officer.
C. Contractor's Completion Voucher After all costs have been assigned to the contract and all contract performance provisions have been completed, the Contractor shall promptly submit, but in any event within twelve (12) months from the date of such completion, its completion voucher to the office designated in the contract directly to the Contracting Officer to finalize the financial settlement of the contract). This voucher must be specifically identified as the completion voucher and should include the remaining cost, fees, and reserves claimed to be due by the Contractor. It will not include items and amounts which may be set out in any qualifications in the Contractor's release of claims. A separate completion voucher shall be submitted for each individual project or task order for which a separate series of public vouchers has been submitted.
Final payment on prescribed contracts may be made on the basis of a desk audit. To expedite final settlement on these contracts, the Contracting Officer may request the Contractor to submit detailed support for costs claimed under one or more interim vouchers.
D. Contractor's Final Voucher and Closing Documents After completion of the final audit and all suspensions and/or audit exceptions have been resolved and there is mutual agreement between the Contractor and the Contracting Officer on the final allowable cost and fee, if any, the Contractor shall submit its final voucher and the appropriate closing documents to the office designated in the contract. The Contractor shall promptly submit it final voucher within twenty-four (24) months from the date of it contract expiration. The funds that are obligated against the contracts/task order are yearly funds and expire after 5 years. The final voucher is for any indirect rate adjustments that might have occurred. If the rate adjustments are not completed or submitted within 24 months after the expiration of the contract, the Government will have the authority to close the contract based of the rates that were used during the contract. The contractor will be notified of the closing. If the contract is closed due to time and the contractor fails or refuses to submit the closing documents, this will be noted in the file documentation, however the contract if officially closed.
This voucher shall be specifically identified as the final voucher, and must be supported by the following documents:
(1) Contractor's Release
(2) Assignee's Release, if applicable.
(3) Contractor's Assignment of Refunds, Rebates, Credits and Other Amounts
(4) Assignee's Assignment of Refunds, Rebates, Credits, and Other Amounts, if applicable
(5) Contractor's Affidavit or Waiver of Lien, when required by the contract
If final settlement of the contract is in the amount shown on the completion voucher, the Contractor need not submit a final voucher, but only the additional closing documents cited above.
E. Currency All Department contracts are expressed in the United States dollars. Where expenditures are made in a currency other than United States dollars, billings on the contract shall be expressed, and reimbursement by the United States Government shall be made, in that other currency at amounts coincident with the actual costs incurred. Currency fluctuation may not be on a basis of gain or loss to the Contractor. Notwithstanding the above, the total of all invoices paid under this contract may not exceed the United States dollars authorized.

It may require amending to meet the specific requirements of this solicitation. For example, this solicitation may require the submission of cost/price data for three years listed on this form. (See Section F.1, Period of Performance, for the estimated duration of this project.) If this solicitation is phased, identify each phase in addition to each year.

The following changes to System Notice No. 09-30-0036 were printed in the Federal Register, Vol. 59, No. 248, Wednesday December 29, 1994, beginning on page 67077.
Changes The following minor changes have been made to the system of records as follows:
09-30-0036
System Name:
Alcohol, Drug Abuse, and Mental Health Epidemiologic and Biometric Research Data, HHS/SAMHSA/OA.
Minor alterations have been made to this system of records notice. The following categories should be revised in their entirety:
SAFEGUARDS:
1. Authorized Users: Access to identifiers and to link files is strictly limited to those authorized personnel whose duties require such access.
Procedures for determining authorized access to identified data are established as appropriate for each location.
Personnel, including contractor personnel, who may be so authorized include those directly involved in data collection and in the design of research studies, e.g., interviewers and interviewer supervisors; project managers; and statisticians involved in designing sampling plans.
2. Physical safeguards: Records are stored in locked rooms, locked file facilities. Personal identifiers and link files are separated as much as possible and stored in locked files.
Computer data access is limited through the use of key words known only to authorized personnel.
3. Procedural safeguards:
Collection and maintenance of data is consistent with legislation and regulations in the protection of human subjects, informed consent, confidentiality, and confidentiality specific to drug and alcohol abuse patients where these apply. When a SAMHSA component or a contractor provides anonymous data to research scientists for analysis, study numbers which can be matched to personal identifiers will be eliminated, scrambled, or replaced by the agency or contractor with random numbers which cannot be matched.
Contractors who maintain records in this system are instructed to make no further disclosure of the records.
Privacy Act requirements are specifically included in contracts for survey and research activities related to this system. The HHS project directors, contract officers, and project officers oversee compliance with these requirements.
4. Implementation guidelines:

PURPOSES(S):
The purpose of the system of records is to collect and maintain a data base for health services evaluations activities of the Center for Substance Abuse Prevention, the Center for Substance Abuse Treatment, and the Center for Mental Health Services. Analyses of these data involve groups of individuals with given characteristics and do not refer to special individuals.
The generation of information and statistical analyses will ultimately lead to a better description and understanding of mental, alcohol, and/or drug abuse disorders, their diagnosis, treatment, and prevention, and the promotion of good physical and mental health.
ROUTINE USES OF
RECORDS MAINTAINED IN
THE SYSTEM, INCLUDING
CATEGORIES OF USERS
AND THE PURPOSES OF
SUCH USES:
1. A record may be disclosed for an evaluation purpose, when the Department:
(a) Has determined that the use or disclosure does not violate legal or policy limitations under which the record was provided, collected, or obtained; e.g., disclosure of alcohol or drug abuse patient records will be made only in accordance with 42 U.S.C. 290 (dd-2).
(b) Has determined that the study purpose (1) cannot be reasonably accomplished unless the record is provided in individually identifiable form and (2) warrants the risk to the privacy of the individual that additional exposure of the record might bring:
(c) Has required the recipient to
(1) establish reasonable administrative technical and physical safeguards to prevent unauthorized use or disclosure of the record, and (2) remove or destroy the information that identifies the individual at the earliest time at which removal or destruction can be accomplished consistent with the purpose of the health services evaluation project, unless the recipient has presented adequate justification of an analytical or health nature for retaining such information, and (3) make no further use or disclosure of the record except
(A) in emergency circumstances affecting the health or safety of any individual, (B) for use in another health service research or evaluation project, under these same conditions, and with written authorization of the Department, (C) for disclosure to a properly identified person for the purpose of an audit related to the evaluation project, if information that would enable study subjects to be identified is removed or destroyed at the earliest opportunity consistent with the purpose of the audit or
(D) when required by law; and
(d) Has secured a written statement attesting to the recipient's understanding of and willingness to abide by these provisions.
2. Disclosure may be made to a congressional office from the record of an individual in response to a verified inquiry from a congressional office made at the written request of that individual.
3. In the event of litigation, where the defendant is (a) the Department, any component of the department, or any employee of the Department in his or her official capacity; (b) the United States where the Department determines that the claim, if successful, is likely to directly affect the operations of the Department or any of its components; or (c) any Department employee in his or her individual capacity where the Justice Department has agreed to represent such employee; the Department may disclose such records as it deems desirable or necessary to the Department of Justice to enable that Department to present an effective defense, provided such disclosure is compatible with the purpose for which the records were collected (e.g. disclosure may be made to the Department of Justice or other appropriate Federal agencies in defending claims against the United States when the claim is based upon an individual's mental or physical condition and is alleged to have arisen because of the individuals' participation in activities of a Federal Government supported research project).
4. The Department contemplates that it will contract with a private firm for the purpose of collecting, analyzing, aggregating, or otherwise refining records in this system.
Relevant records will be disclosed to such contractor.
The contractor shall be required to maintain Privacy Act safeguards with respect to such records.
POLICIES AND PRACTICES
FOR STORING
RETRIEVING, ACCESSING,
RETAINING AND
DISPOSING OF RECORDS
ON THE SYSTEM:
STORAGE:
Records may be stored on index cards, file folders.
computer tapes, and disks, microfiche, microfilm, and audio and video tapes. Normally, the factual data, with study code numbers are stored on computer tape or disk while the key to personal identifiers is stored separately without factual data, in paper files.
RETRIEVABILITY:
During data collection stages and follow up if any retrieval by personal identifier (e.g, name, social security number) in some studies), or (medical record number), is necessary. During the data analysis stage, data are normally retrieved by the variables of interest (e.g;
diagnosis, age, occupation).
SAFEGUARDS:
1. Authorized users: Access to identifiers and to link files is strictly limited to the authorized personnel whose duties require such access. Procedures for determining authorized access to identified data are established as appropriate for each location.
Personnel, including contractor personnel, who may be so authorized include those directly involved in data collection and in the design of research studies, e.g; interviewers and interviewer supervisors; project managers, statisticians involved in designing sampling plans.
2. Physical safeguards: Records are stored in locked rooms, locked file cabinets, and/or secured computer facilities.
Personal identifiers and link files are separated as much as possible and stored in locked files. Computer data access is limited through the use of key words known only to authorized personnel.
3. Procedure safeguards:
Collection and maintenance of data is consistent with legislation and regulations in the protection of human subjects informed consent, confidentiality, and confidentiality specific to drug and alcohol abuse patients where these apply. When an Institute Division or a contractor provides anonymous data to research scientists for analysis, study numbers which can be matched to personal identifiers will be eliminated, scrambled, or replaced by the agency or contractor with random numbers which cannot be matched.
Contractors who maintain records in this system are instructed to make no further disclosure of the records.
Privacy Act requirements are specifically included in contracts for survey and evaluation activities related to this system.
The HHS project directors, contract officers and project officers oversee compliance with these requirements.

RETENTION AND
DISPOSAL:
Personal identifiers are retained only as long as they are needed for the purposes of the current evaluation project, and for follow-up studies generated by the present study. Removal or disposal of identifiers is done according to the storage medium (e.g; erase computer tape, shred or burn index cards, etc.). A staff person designated by the System Manager will oversee and will describe and confirm the disposal in writing.
