X X X X The purpose of this amendment is to answer Question 5.

All other terms and conditions shall remain the same.

Cynthia Laemmerhirt QA 5. Based on Section 4.9.3 of the solicitation, my interpretation is that there is no additional loaded mileage compensation for trips that occur entirely within the same CLIN county area, as the base price already includes up to 15 miles and 30 minutes of wait time.

Specifically, the section states:

“Travel within designated CLIN Counties: There shall be no additional mileage paid.”

Therefore, additional mileage would only apply when transporting a Veteran between two different CLIN counties, with reimbursement beginning at mile 16 from the pickup location to the drop-off location for loaded miles only.

PWS is being amended to read:

4.9.3 CLIN Description:

Each CLIN shall be considered the base price for the designated County area. Each CLIN shall be priced for that CLIN area and shall include Base price, 15 miles, and 30 minutes of wait time for travel within that CLIN. The average travel mileage within the County between Veteran pick-up and drop-off is an average of 15 for Community Care appointments. Loaded mileage will be paid starting with mile 16.

Travel within designated CLIN Counties: There shall be no additional mileage paid.

Travel outside designated (loaded trip between 2 different CLINs) CLIN Counties: Mileage shall be paid starting at mile 16 from the pick-up location and will be paid to the Veteran drop-off location. Only loaded mileage will be paid.

Each trip is considered one-way. Example: If the Veteran is transported from CLIN0001 to CLIN0002, this trip will use CLIN0001 as the base start and drop off will be CLIN0002. If this same Veteran is transported from CLIN0002 to CLIN0001, this trip will use CLIN0002 as the bast start and drop off will be CLIN0001.
