If the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement is invoked through an “I agree” click box or other comparable mechanism (e.g., “click-wrap” or “browse-wrap” agreements), execution does not bind the Government or any Government authorized end user to such clause.
(3) Any such clause is deemed to be stricken from the EULA, TOS, or similar legal instrument or agreement.
(b) Paragraph (a) of this clause does not apply to indemnification by the Government that is expressly authorized by statute and specifically authorized under applicable agency regulation and procedures.

PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT
MEDICAL SERVICES FOR SIGTARP
1.0 BACKGROUND
SIGTARP, a sophisticated, white-collar criminal investigative agency, is committed to robust criminal and civil enforcement against those who waste, steal, or abuse TARP funds. SIGTARP partners with other law enforcement agencies to investigate and prosecute, among other things, TARP-related accounting fraud, securities fraud, insider trading, bank fraud, mortgage fraud, mortgage modification fraud, wire fraud, false statements, obstruction of justice, money laundering, and tax crimes. Special agents are duly sworn Federal law enforcement officers who possess specialized skills to investigate complex financial crimes. Agents must be able to handle long hours and stressful, dangerous, and potentially violent situations.
Since the duties of these positions are exacting and involve the responsibility for the safety of others under potentially stressful conditions, all tentative selectees and incumbents must possess physical, emotional and mental stability. Therefore, all applicants and incumbents must pass the medical requirements as outlined in the Treasury Enforcement Agent medical standards published by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
2.0 OBJECTIVES
The Special Inspector General for the Troubled Asset Relief Program Investigations Division (ID) is seeking a medical contractor to provide medical services to the special agent applicant pool and incumbent population.
The Contractor will be required to evaluate applicants to determine if they meet the medical qualifications for the special agent position; conduct mandatory incumbent biennial medical screening examinations to determine if they can safely participate in law enforcement duties and the physical fitness program (PFP).
The Contractor Medical Review Officer (MRO) shall also provide medical expertise in evaluating agents’ conditions that require fitness for duty examinations and/or Independent Medical Evaluations (IME) to determine if the condition under evaluation precludes safe performance of law enforcement duties, including when returning to duty from an injury or illness or when a medical or psychological condition is self-reported that may pose a safety risk. The Contractor shall ensure agents and applicants receive the appropriate tests necessary to make medical determinations and report clearance results to SIGTARP as timely as possible.
The Contractor shall provide the necessary facilities, staff, materials and equipment to administer an all-inclusive medical examination/screening program, assist SIGTARP with the development of new ID policies and programs, and continue to implement current policies and programs. The Contractor may sub-contract to medical specialists on a case-by-case basis, when necessary.
The Contractor shall work with the respective ID personnel in updating forms and reports as necessary to reflect updated changes with ID policies and programs within the timeline established.

(c) The Contractor shall be able to perform all phases of an examination in one day at a facility located in close proximity (50 mile radius) to examinee’s home or office.
(d) The Contractor shall procure clinics that provide quality care and are knowledgeable and capable of performing the full scope of the ID medical screening services accurately. The clinic personnel are expected to be proficient at performing the services requested and act in a professional manner. The clinics are expected to have a clean and sanitary environment.
Special agents and applicants must have the capability to make an appointment for their medical screenings. The Contractor should avoid using clinics that provide walk-in services only in order to avoid long wait times. Clinics are expected to be located in safe areas.
(e) The Contractor shall have sufficient full-time medical staff to supervise and audit the examining physicians and clinics to adequately establish a system for quality control. The supervisory staff shall include, at a minimum, physicians Board-certified in Internal Medicine and/or Occupational Medicine with the ability to exercise perceptive judgment on health standards.
(f) The Contractor shall not use Physicians’ Assistants or Registered Nurses for the conduct of the actual physical required under this Statement of Work.
3.2 Central Administration and Records
The Contractor’s headquarters shall have appropriate and sufficient facilities, space, and personnel to maintain centralized administration of the program including secured automated tracking of applicant/incumbent examination processes and a secured central location for all hard copy applicant/incumbent examinations records. This centralized administration shall comply with all applicable federal statutes and regulations regarding the confidentially and privacy of medical records and reports/forms.
The Contractor shall have operating procedures that allow for effective communication between the examining physician, the Contractor’s staff, the ID Program Manager, and COR in a sensitive and confidential manner. The Contractor shall ensure that the operating procedures ensure confidentiality of medical information in accordance with SIGTARP’s policy and all applicable federal statutes and regulations. The Contractor shall have a hierarchical database with password protection for scheduling requests and clearance notification for applicant/incumbent employees entered by SIGTARP personnel.
The Contractor agrees not to breach the confidential nature of the medical records generated under this contract.

The Contractor shall send out incumbent examination packets, incumbent medical examination results, pre-placement medical information and other relevant ID medical information utilizing the established SIGTARP contracted carrier. The mailing address will be provided to the vendor upon selection of the contract. The Contractor shall be provided with an account number and shall include relevant information in the reference field as an identifier. All mail to agents or prospective agents containing Personally Identifiable Information (PII) (i.e., social security numbers, etc.) must be double packaged.
Double packaged is defined as information sealed within an envelope and then contained within the carrier package. The Contractor shall comply with SIGTARP’s policy and all applicable federal statutes and regulations on privacy and protecting sensitive information.

4.3 Applicant Pre-Placement Medical Clearance Examination Process and Tracking
The Contractor shall be provided with the criteria to conduct the medical examination. Medical examinations are required to determine if the special agent applicants (including re-instatement eligibility) meet the basic medical qualification standards and can safely perform the physical and medical requirements of the special agent position. Since the duties of these positions are exacting and involve the responsibility for the safety of others under potentially stressful conditions, all tentative selectees must possess emotional and mental stability.
The Contractor shall mail the pre-placement medical information directly to the applicants and schedule their medical examination appointments within 10 calendar days of receipt of notification. The Contractor shall utilize SIGTARP’s contracted carrier and comply with SIGTARP’s policy and all applicable federal statutes and regulations regarding PII. All packages to agents or perspective agents containing PII (i.e., social security numbers, etc.) shall be double packaged. The Contractor shall facilitate the applicant medical clearance processes and provide ID designated personnel with a password protected secure webpage so that they will be able to track examination/screening progression, as needed.
Weekly reports shall be provided every Friday by noon Eastern Standard Time with the exception of holidays by the Contractor on the status of each applicant medical clearance. In the event of a Friday holiday, the report shall be provided the day before the holiday. The Contractor shall provide medical results, clearance status and all required follow-up within 15 business days of completion of the medical examination via a password protected secure webpage. The MRO’s medical determinations for the pre-placement examination are the following: (1) Cleared; (2) Not Cleared – No Examination; or (3) Not Cleared – Pending Information Not Received.
If additional medical information is required in order to make a medical determination, applicants shall be given 30-calendar days to provide the information to the MRO.
If the medical information submitted within 30 days is incomplete or not the information requested, the applicants shall be sent a notification letter that shall offer 10 additional calendar days to provide the information requested or they shall no longer be considered for the special agent position.
Laws and regulations protect the privacy of an individual’s medical results and medical information can only be disclosed to individuals with a need to know. The MRO issues a written medical determination to ID and the COR in accordance with SIGTARP policy and all applicable federal statutes and regulations.
4.4 Applicant Pre-Placement/Baseline Examination Components
• Medical History Review;
• Physical Examination;
• Vision (Corrected and Uncorrected, near and far visual acuity, color vision, peripheral vision, depth perception);
• OSHA Audiogram;
• Resting Electrocardiogram;
• Spirometry;
• Blood Lead and Zinc Protoporphorin (ZPP);
• Complete Blood Count (CBC), routine urinalysis, and blood chemistries with lipid profile; and
• Purified Protein Derivative (PPD) - Tuberculosis Skin Test. Note: If a positive PPD is indicated, the contractor shall set applicant as a “further evaluation” required. The MRO shall send the applicant a letter including the test results. If a chest x-ray is necessary for a positive PPD test, the applicant is responsible for obtaining a chest x-ray, at their own expense, to obtain a medical clearance. If the Contractor does not receive a reply back within the designated time period, a Not Medically Qualified (NMQ) report is sent to SIGTARP and SIGTARP will notify the applicant of the findings and medical clearance rating.
• Standards Review and Summary Statement.
4.5 Biennial Medical Screening Examination and Clearance Ratings
It is mandatory for all special agents to complete their biennial medical screening clearances for participation in PFP, Hearing Conservation Program, Blood Lead and ZPP screening programs.
The Contractor shall mail all incumbent special agents the necessary medical information packet for their biennial medical screening examination 60 calendar days prior to their birthday, utilizing SIGTARP’s contracted carrier and complying with SIGTARP’s policy and all applicable federal statutes and regulations regarding PII. It is imperative that agents schedule their examination upon receipt of their medical packet and take their examination prior to the last day of their birth month to allow enough time for the MRO to review their evaluation to avoid a lapse in their medical clearance. All medical clearances expire on the agent’s birthday. The Contractor shall send out e-mail reminder notifications to agents who have not completed their medical screening within 30 and 45 days after the packet is issued. A copy shall be sent to the designated ID personnel and COR on the 45-day notice.
There are exceptions to this requirement and exceptions are coordinated with the Contractor, ID
Program Manager, and COR. All newly hired agents at the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) shall not be required to take their biennial medical screening while in training. All new hires shall be placed on the incumbent birthday examination schedule once they report to their respective field office after completion of training.
The MRO reviews the findings from the contracted examining physician and shall determine if the agent can safely perform law enforcement duties and participate in the PFP. The MRO shall also determine if any conditions reported pose a safety risk. If a safety risk is identified, the MRO shall notify the ID Program Manager and COR then post the results to their password protected online system. If the agent is medically cleared, the contractor shall notify ID immediately.
At their own expense, agents may opt to go to their private physician for their medical screening examination, however; the blood lead test and the audiogram must be conducted by the ID medical contractor. Agents must notify the medical Contractor if they choose to go to their own physician for their medical screening. The agent is responsible for ensuring that his/her private physician completes and submits the required ID medical screening examination form to the Contractor MRO for review. The MRO shall review the medical results for all agents and provide a final medical determination if the agent is cleared to participate in the physical fitness program and has met lead surveillance requirements.
The examination turn-around timeline does not go into effect until the Contractor receives all…
