CONTINUATION PAGE

Will all providers need to be able to do Outpatient and Inpatient work? For example, what if a provider does Outpatient only, could we still present them? Can you confirm that this means that the providers could do strictly Outpatient only or Inpatient only? As long as I can provide enough providers to cover each need, the providers themselves would not need to be able to do both duties, correct?

This requirement is strictly for outpatient services.

Are there any special emergency privileges or expedited privileges available due to the current pandemic?

The entire facility is reopening outpatient services by various milestone. Providers are working at the clinic or teleworking based on need and approval.

Please advise if there is an incumbent contract for this requirement. If so, who is the current incumbent contractor and are all positions filled?

Current incumbent is AB Staffing Solutions, LLC. We have no current contracted psychiatrist on board.

What is the average patient volume per day for each Psychiatrist?

10-16 patients a day to include scheduled, unscheduled, and emergency patients. There is dedicated administrative time carved out weekly to catch up to medical notes, medication management, referrals, conduct patient calls, meetings, and etc.
