Sterile Compounding Personnel Testing/Competency

1. BACKGROUND: The United States Pharmacopeia (USP) establishes standards for cleanroom design, environmental monitoring, and competencies for the preparation, handling, and storage of Compounded Sterile Preparations (CSPs). The Joint Commission (TJC) established new Medication Compounding (MC) standards for non-sterile and sterile compounded preparations which are based on USP standards. Additionally, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has the authority to inspect VA medical facilities.

VHA Directive 1108.12, Management and Monitoring of Pharmaceutical Compounded Sterile Preparations, dated November 5, 2018, defines organizational responsibility for USP <797> standards for cleanroom design and engineering controls, environmental monitoring and cleaning of primary and secondary engineering controls, and the core competencies for personnel involved in the processes of compounding sterile preparations including HDs (both sterile and nonsterile dosage form preparations). It is VHA policy that each VA medical facility that provides CSPs have a pharmaceutical CSP program in place that conforms to the standards in USP Chapter <797> “Pharmaceutical Compounding‐Sterile Compounding” Sterile Preparations USP Chapter <797> standards require successful demonstration of initial and ongoing competency of garbing and hand hygiene by all compounding personnel.

Subject to the terms of this contract, the Contractor shall be paid a percentage of the contract price reflecting the percentage of the work performed prior to the notice of termination, plus reasonable charges the Contractor can demonstrate to the satisfaction of the Government using its standard record keeping system, have resulted from the termination. The Contractor shall not be required to comply with the cost accounting standards or contract cost principles for this purpose. This paragraph does not give the Government any right to audit the Contractor's records. The Contractor shall not be paid for any work performed or costs incurred which reasonably could have been avoided.

The Government may terminate this contract, or any part hereof, for cause in the event of any default by the Contractor, or if the Contractor fails to comply with any contract terms and conditions, or fails to provide the Government, upon request, with adequate assurances of future performance. In the event of termination for cause, the Government shall not be liable to the Contractor for any amount for supplies or services not accepted, and the Contractor shall be liable to the Government for any and all rights and remedies provided by law. If it is determined that the Government improperly terminated this contract for default, such termination shall be deemed a termination for convenience.
