Medical Statement.docx

This is a Medical Statement directive that establishes healthcare liability and payment responsibilities for contractor employees at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (JBMDL). The statement will be incorporated into all solicitations, awards, task orders, delivery orders, and calls with performance on JBMDL. The 87th Medical Treatment Facility (MTF) may provide urgent health care to contractor employees or agents for injuries occurring while on duty, defined as medical care necessary to save life or limb and prevent undue pain and suffering. Contractor employees will be transferred to civilian medical facilities once appropriately stabilized. All treatment costs are the responsibility of the contractor or contractor's employee and will not be borne by the 87th MTF, the United States Air Force, or the government.

Billing is processed based on services provided as documented on Air Force FORM 552 (Pre-Hospital Evaluation Patient Care Report). If a contractor employee cannot pay at the time of billing, the 87th MTF will issue a statement of charges and letter of indebtedness to be paid by the contractor employee. Contractor employees and agents are required to provide timely notice to their medical insurance company and furnish adequate information and documentation to enable insurance payment. This directive applies to the JBOC SVTC Equipment Purchase, Installation, and Integration solicitation (FA448426Q0005) being issued by the Department of the Air Force Air Mobility Command.
