1.0 DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES:

1.1 Background

The United States Air Force (USAF) Family Advocacy Program (FAP) and the Exceptional

Family Member Program – Medical (EFMP-M) are managed by the USAF Medical

Operations Agency (AFMOA) located at Lackland-Kelly Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas. The programs provide policy, guidance, and standards to Military Treatment Facility

(MTF) staff located at 79 Continental United States (CONUS) and Outside Continental

United States (OCONUS) locations. Total personnel supporting these locations is approximately 600; offices range in size from 2 to 20 people. AFMOA provides a suite of applications (Family of Systems) known as FAPNet/Q-base to the 600 end users.

1.2 Scope

The contractor shall provide critical system sustainment and development for the AFMOA

Family of Systems and the modules developed to support them known as FAPNet/Q-base, the suite of systems supporting the FAP and the EFMP-M. System sustainment shall include software maintenance and other technical services. The scope of effort addressed in this

Performance Work Statement (PWS) requires hosting of a development and a test environment located at the contractor‟s site. The final test before deployment and production environments will reside on a virtual server in the Shared Services Department located at the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SPAWARSYSCEN) Atlantic

(LANT), New Orleans Office. The contractor shall work with SPAWARSYSCEN to ensure system sustainment and development actions update to the production and test environments.

1.2.1 References to development and test sites in this PWS are only to ensure critical operational capability of FAPNet, such as "bug" fixes and security patches required to keep the system accessible. Maintenance of the current system is all that will be performed. At no time will the scope of capability that currently exists be changed under this PWS. Also, no additional capabilities will be designed, developed, or implemented.

HIPAA is comprised of several different sections, each to be implemented by the Dept. of Health and Human Services. The Air Force Medical Service (AFMS) and its components are specifically listed as covered entities (CE) under HIPAA. Currently, HIPAA Privacy and Security Rules, as set forth in the Code of Federal Regulations, are in effect for all AFMS CEs. The specific implementation of HIPAA Privacy for DOD medical facilities is set forth in DOD 6025.18-R, and for HIPAA Security, the requirements for the AFMS are contained in DOD 8580.02-R and AFI

41-217, which also contains additional Information Assurance requirements. DOD 6025.18-R, DOD 8580.02-R and AFI 41-217 are incorporated herein by reference. AFMS organizations are responsible to insure overall compliance with HIPAA requirements, which includes incorporation of certain requirements in contracts entered into or amended after the respective implementation dates.

In accordance with these regulations, the contractor and its employees meet the definition of
