Attachment 8 - Workload History/Projections

1. WORKLOAD Estimates:

1.1 As of 05/07/2015, enrollment at the current Scottsbluff CBOC = 1243. The following is a listing of estimated numbers of veterans residing in Scotts Bluff, Box Butte, and nearby Morrill Counties as of 2013 according to the following website: https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/US

County Veterans Scotts Bluff, USA 2,110 Box Butte, USA 601 Morrill, USA 282

1.2 NOTE: All these “County” Veterans are not necessarily “enrolled” at VA or

CBOC’s but have been seen at some point designating them as Veterans.

This is historical data only and is not guarantee that the same levels will occur during contract performance.

1.3 There are eight (8) Priority Groups to which veterans may be assigned after processing. All applications for all eight (8) groups are input into VISTA by the CBOC for reporting and accountability purposes, but those veterans in Priority Group 8, who applied after 1/17/03, are ineligible and will not receive services by the Contractor. Veterans are not "assigned" to a CBOC but may choose either to be seen at VA or to be enrolled in a CBOC. VA will notify eligible veterans about the availability of the Pierre CBOC and the services to be provided there. The Government estimates that each patient will make

2.06 visits per contract year to the CBOC.

1.4 The numbers of veterans residing in the counties identified above and estimated number of visits per patient per year as stated above are estimates and are to be used for information purposes only. VA in no way guarantees the accuracy of the estimates. Contractor fully understands and agrees that costs for any additional visits above the estimated average visits per unique veteran patient and all primary care services as specified in the Description / Specifications / Work Statement Section are borne by the Contractor, and are included in the capitation rates agreed to by the Contractor in the Schedule of Services and Prices/Costs section.

1.5 Patients have the right to receive primary care other than from VA or a CBOC.

The VA, however, encourages patients to have only one primary care provider; and it is VA’ expectation that the patient is seen at the VA CBOC at least once per twelve (12) month period, or as often as deemed clinically appropriate by the veteran’s VA CBOC Primary Care Provider (for further guidance, please also refer to VHA Directive 2009-038 dated August 25, 2009: http://www.va.gov/vhapublications/ViewPublication.asp?pub_ID=2058)
