The contractor shall provide Pharmacy Services to eligible veterans seen by authorized prescribers assigned to following VA Primary Care Clinics (PCC) and Community Based Outpatient Clinics

(CBOC): Northeast PCC located at 4461 East Charleston Blvd, Las Vegas, NV 89104, Northwest

Primary Care Clinic located at 3968 N Rancho Drive, Las Vegas, NV 89130, Southwest Primary Care

Clinic located at 7235 South Buffalo Dr, Las Vegas, NV 89113, Southeast PCC located at 1020 S.

Building D Suite 200. Laughlin, NV 89029, Pahrump VA CBOC located at 220 South Lola Lane

Pahrump, NV 89048 (hereafter referred to as PCCs & CBOCs).

This statement of work is limited to the provision of outpatient prescriptions for urgently needed authorized formulary medications to patients seen at PCCs & CBOCs after normal business hours, weekends and Holidays.

Period of Performance:

Base: October 1, 2021 – September 30, 2022

Option Year 1: October 1, 2022 – September 30, 2023

Option Year 2: October 1, 2023 – September 30, 2024

Option Year 3: October 1, 2024 – September 30, 2025

Option Year 4: October 1, 2025 – September 30, 2026

2. Specific Contractor Tasks include:

1. The Contractor shall fill and dispense original prescriptions issued only by prescribers assigned to VA

PCCs & CBOCs. The VA shall provide a list of preauthorized prescriber names with their NPI (and DEA numbers as necessary) to the contractor with updates as they occur.

2. Prescriptions filled must be called into Pharmacy or electronically printed on VA CONTRACT

PHARMACY PRESCRIPTION VOUCHER.

A. Prescriptions may be delivered to contract pharmacy by:

a. Veteran Beneficiary hand-carrying the VA “CONTRACT PHARMACY

PRESCRIPTION VOUCHER” containing all information required by the pharmacy for entry into the contractor’s pharmacy IT system for “on-demand” claims adjudication and dispensing.

b. Fax from PCC/CBOC to Contract Pharmacy.

c. Call-in by PCC/CBOC prescriber.

B. Prescriptions shall be filled and dispensed only for medications in formulary “Drug List” authorized at the VA Southern Nevada Healthcare System (Attachment A). A copy of the formulary Drug List will accompany the awarded contract. Updates will be provided to the

Contractor as necessary. The Contractor is required to update the Drug List within a two (2) week period from time of written notification from the VA, for both drugs and drug strengths.

The Contractor must notify and update all pharmacies of the updates within forty-eight (48) hours or by the end of the same two (2) week period. A faxed or email authorization from a VA

Pharmacist may be given to the Contractor for an off-the-list drug prescribed by a VA prescriber.

C. All prescriptions shall be filled for quantities up to a maximum of ten (10) days only. The prescribing provider may elect to write the prescription for less than ten (10) days, and the pharmacy may only fill for prescribed number of days. This will provide a sufficient time for the

D. Prescription refills are NOT authorized. The Contractor shall fill only new prescriptions.

E. The Contractor is responsible to educate the used pharmacies in consistent relaying of VA policies when questioned by a Veteran Beneficiary.

The Veteran is never to be told to return the next day when the problem can be handled; the

Contractor is responsible to solve these types of problems while the Veteran Beneficiary is waiting. The VASNHS will provide the contractor with instructions on what should be done if no

VASNHS personnel are available to assist the pharmacy or the contractor.

F. Prescriptions filled under this contract shall be generic drugs to the extent permitted by law. The least expensive drug product the pharmacy has in stock shall be dispensed. Generic drugs shall be dispensed if in the professional judgment of the pharmacist, the substitute product is available, safe, effective, and to the greatest extent possible, contains the same chemical ingredients of the same strength, quantity, and dosage of the brand name. All generic products used must be in compliance with Federal and State regulations.

G. Mailing and delivery of prescriptions is NOT authorized.

H. The Contractor shall make available to the VA all prescription records and invoices upon request during business hours. All invoice requests will be fulfilled by the contractor to the VAMC.

I. The pharmacies for filling and dispensing of prescriptions must be located within a 5 (five) mile radius from the VA location. The Contractor shall list locations for filling and dispensing of prescriptions.

J. Prescriptions filled by contractor must include necessary auxiliary warning labels and other printed medication information customarily provide to other contractor clients. In accordance with Nevada pharmacy regulations, patients must be offered medication counseling.

K. The Pharmacist working for the contractor will evaluate each prescription for drug interactions, contraindications given recorded drug allergies, appropriate doses, and accurate directions.

Incomplete, erroneous or questionable prescriptions will be clarified with the prescriber prior to dispensing

L. The Contractor shall be responsible for contacting the PCC/CBOC prescriber to work out a solution when a “backorder” or “out-of-stock” occurs.

M. All pharmacies and pharmacists must be licensed in the state providing the services. Contractor will be required to have on file current and valid licenses for all pharmacists and provide photocopies of each to the Contracting Officer within 45 days of contract award.

N. When patient or his representative picks up prescriptions, contractor shall release such prescriptions by first verifying the identity of the veteran with the veteran’s VA identification card.

3. Documentation

A. Contractor shall maintain a written log of VA prescriptions filled under this contract. The log shall indicate the date the prescription was filled and contractor’s prescription number. The VA patient or his representative shall sign next to the prescription number at the time of prescription pick up to signify receipt of each prescription.

6. Hours of Operation

A. Contractor will provide prescription services to VA beneficiaries at minimum Monday through

B. The VA is closed during Federal Holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Jr., President’s

Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

7. HIPAA Compliance

COMPLIANCE (JUL 2018)

(a) This solicitation includes VAAR 852.219-10 VA Notice of Total Service- Disabled Veteran-Owned

Small Business Set-Aside.

(b) Accordingly, any contract resulting from this solicitation is subject to the limitation on subcontracting requirements in 13 CFR 125.6, or the limitations on subcontracting requirements in the

FAR clause, as applicable. The Contractor is advised that in performing contract administration functions, the Contracting Officer may use the services of a support contractor(s) retained by VA to assist in assessing the Contractor's compliance with the limitations on subcontracting or percentage of work performance requirements specified in the clause. To that end, the support contractor(s) may require access to Contractor's offices where the Contractor's business records or other proprietary data are retained and to review such business records regarding the Contractor's compliance with this requirement.

(c) All support contractors conducting this review on behalf of VA will be required to sign an

“Information Protection and Non-Disclosure and Disclosure of Conflicts of Interest Agreement” to ensure the Contractor's business records or other proprietary data reviewed or obtained in the course of assisting the Contracting Officer in assessing the Contractor for compliance are protected to ensure information or data is not improperly disclosed or other impropriety occurs.

(d) Furthermore, if VA determines any services the support contractor(s) will perform in assessing compliance are advisory and assistance services as defined in FAR 2.101, Definitions, the support contractor(s) must also enter into an agreement with the Contractor to protect proprietary information as required by FAR 9.505-4, Obtaining access to proprietary information, paragraph (b). The Contractor is required to cooperate fully and make available any records as may be required to enable the Contracting

Officer to assess the Contractor's compliance with the limitations on subcontracting or percentage of work performance requirement.

(b) Electronic payment requests. Except as provided in paragraph (e) of this clause, the contractor shall submit payment requests in electronic form.
