QASP
Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP)
1.0 Background: The Department of Defense (DoD) TRICARE Management Activity (TMA) values all staff involved in the delivery of high-quality care to service members. In 2009, a Medical Management Guide was issued by the Office of the Assistant Secretary of Defense for Health Affairs (ASD) [HA]) and TMA, Office of the Chief Medical Officer (OCMO), Population Health and Medical Management Division (PHMMD). The Guide covers the components of a Medical Management (MM) program, including applicable principles, implementation concepts, processes, and tools/databases for Utilization Management (UM), Case Management (CM), and Disease Management (DM). It complements the 2001 DoD Population Health Improvement Plan and Guide published by TMA and the Government Printing Office http://www.tricare.mil/ocmo/download/mhs_phi_guide.pdf.
1.1 Under legislative mandates, the ASD (HA) submitted an annual report to Congress regarding healthcare delivery for Military Health System (MHS) beneficiaries. The 2009 report documented the MHS goal to providing high-quality care, improving performance through clinical and process outcomes, and increasing patients’ confidence in the care they receive. The Guide describes crucial components of Medical Management within the MHS, including the link between MM and population health and the dynamics between Utilization Management, Case Management and Disease Management in helping reduce unnecessary or inappropriate services and/or duplication of services.
1.1.1. Originally, Dental Services almost exclusively targeted in-patients with catastrophic issues. However, a number of developments have served to change that strategy; notably: - The emergence of the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA): http://www.ncqa.orgorg/ and the development of accreditation standards by the Utilization Review Accreditation Commission (URAC):
http://www.urac.org.
1.1.2 The MHS has three primary goals for Dental Services:
- Improve the care, management, and transition of recovering Service members.
- Broaden the application of DS to include those with complex and at-risk needs before the Soldier requires complex care.
- Evaluate the impact of dental services on the quality of military health care.
Over the past year, OKARNG readiness has continued to increase to over 85% but requires additional focus to maintain a readiness standard of over 90% deployable.
Continued utilization of medical case managers is essential to maintaining established medical readiness goals for the OKARNG.
http://www.tricare.mil/ocmo/download/mhs_phi_guide.pdf http://www.ncqa.orgorg/ http://www.urac.org/
- Vision: Provide a healthy, resilient, ready and deployable force for federal, state and community missions
- Mission: To Provide a Responsive Medical Force and a Healthy Medically Ready Army National Guard
- Support deployment of a healthy force – Soldiers
- Support deployment of the medical force – Units
- Facilitate Warriors in Transition and Family Care – Beneficiaries
2.0 Purpose: This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan is a government-developed document used to determine if the contractor’s performance meets the performance standards contained in the contract. The QASP establishes procedures on how this assessment/inspection process will be conducted. It provides the detailed process for a continuous oversight process:
- What will be monitored
- How monitoring will take place
- Who will conduct the monitoring
- How monitoring efforts and results will be documented
2.1 The contractor is responsible for implementing and delivering performance that meets contract standards using its Quality Control Plan. The QASP provides the structure for the government’s surveillance of the contractor’s performance to assure that it meets contract standards. It is the government’s responsibility to be objective, fair and consistent in evaluating contractor performance.
2.2 The QASP is not intended to duplicate the contractor’s quality control plan.
2.3 The government may provide a copy of the QASP to the contractor to facilitate open communication. In addition, the QASP should recognize that unforeseen or uncontrollable circumstances might occur that are outside the control of the contractor.
2.4 Bottom line, the QASP should ensure early identification and resolution of performance issues to minimize impact on mission performance.
2.4.1 Authority
Authority for issuance of this QASP is provided under Part 46 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation, Inspection of Services clauses, which provide for inspection, acceptance and documentation of the service called for in the contract or order. This acceptance is to be executed by the contracting officer or a duly authorized representative.
2.4.2 Roles and Responsibilities
The following personnel shall oversee and coordinate surveillance activities.
2.4.2.1 Program/Project Manager (PM) – The PM (if the individual’s supervisor) nominates (or request the individual’s supervisory nominate) the COR using VCE-COR or as directed by the Contracting Officer based upon the dollar value of the action. The PM/Supervisor ensures the COR meets all COR training requirement outlined by the Contracting Office for the action before taking action regarding the nomination of the COR. The contract shall not be awarded until a qualified COR is appointed in writing by the Contracting Officer. The PM/Supervisor is not authorized to perform any COR duties but provides support to help the COR properly provide the necessary federal government oversight needed. The PM/Supervisor is required to include the performance of the
COR in the COR/s annual performance rating. While the PM may serve as a direct conduit to provide Government guidance and feedback to thru the COR to the Contractor on technical matters, they are not empowered to make any contractual commitments or any contract changes on the government’s behalf. It is highly recommended the PM/Supervisor also nominate an alternate COR.
Assigned PM: LTC Clifton L. Barger Organization or Agency: Oklahoma Army National Guard- G1 Telephone: (405)0228-5098 Email: clifton.l.barger2.mil@mail.mil
2.4.2.2 Contracting Officer (KO) – The KO shall ensure performance of all necessary actions for effective contracting, ensure compliance with the contract terms, and shall safeguard the interests of the United States in the contractual relationship. The KO shall also ensure the contractor receives impartial, fair, and equitable treatment under this contract. Determine the final assessment of the contractor’s performance.
Assigned KO: Trey A. Marshall Organization or Agency: Oklahoma Army National Guard- USPFO- P&C Telephone: (405) 228-5547 Email: trey.a.marshall.civ@mail.mil
2.4.2.3 Contracting Officer’s Representative (COR) The COR is responsible for providing continuous technical oversight of the contractor’s performance. The COR uses the QASP to conduct the oversight/surveillance process. The COR shall keep a Quality Assurance file that accurately documents the contractor’s actual performance. If required to use VCE-COR by the Contracting Officer, the COR will always make sure these records are accurately and timely uploaded to the VCE-COR system. The purpose is to ensure the contractor meets the performance standards contained in the contract. The COR is responsible for reporting early identification of performance problems to the KO. The COR is required to provide an annual performance assessment (or more frequently as directed by the Contracting Officer) to the KO which will be used in documenting past performance. The QASP is the primary tool for documenting contractor performance. The COR is not empowered to make any contractual commitments or to authorize any contractual change on the Government’s behalf. The COR shall meet with the KO periodically as directed (usually monthly or quarterly at a minimum) to discuss the CORs performance. These meeting are in addition to the progress and similar type meeting involving at a minimum the contractor, COR and KO. The COR and alternate as applicable should communicate frequently to ensure both are aware of the current on-going oversight status and contract performance status.

3.0 Government Contract Surveillance
The goal of the QASP is to ensure contractor performance is effectively monitored and documented.
The COR is responsible for maintaining quality assurance surveillance for the federal government.
The COR will ensure monthly quality assurance inspections are accomplished accurately and timely (frequency may change as determinate by each State KO and customer). All records shall be uploaded to VCE-COR as applicable. (STATES if VCE-COR is not applicable revise)
4.0. Surveillance Matrix
The Surveillance Matrix (Attachment 1) is the list of performance objectives and standards that must be performed by the government. This matrix details the method of surveillance the COR will use to validate and inspect these performance elements. Inspection of each element will be documented in the COR file.
4.1 Performance Rating Definitions
In evaluating the quality of contractor’s performance, the following performance ratings may be used.
Performance Rating
Criteria
Excellent / Outstanding
Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the government’s benefits. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with no problems and contractor actions were highly effective.
Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the government benefits. The contractual performance was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.
Performance objectives define the desired outcomes. Performance Standards define the level of service required under the contract to successfully meet the performance objective. The inspection methodology defines how, when, and what will be assessed in measuring performance. The Government performs surveillance, using this QASP, to determine the quality of the contractor’s performance as it relates to the performance element standards.
4.2 Corrective Action Report (CAR) (See attachment 2)
Used identify, document and resolve issues or performance concerns/failures.
4.3 Customer Complaint Form (See attachment 3)
Provides a format for customers who are support by the contractor to report on the contractors performance (For Agency use – Remember customers do not know what the contract requirements are). CORs should use this as a method to become aware of issues but these forms are not to be used to evaluate the contractor unless complaint is valid and applicable to the contract (consult with Contracting Office if there are any questions).
4.4 Performance Assessment Report (States are recommended to develop their own local form for use by the COR to report the period (monthly or as directed by the KO) assessments of the contract performance.
Attachment 1: Surveillance Matrix
TECHNICAL EXHIBIT 1
Performance Requirements Summary This Performance Requirements Summary includes performance standards. The Government will use these standards to determine Contractor performance and will compare Contractor performance to the Acceptable Quality Level (AQL).
Good Performance meets contractual requirements. The contractual performance contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were satisfactory.
Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor’s proposed actions appear marginally effective or were not fully implemented.
Unsatisfactory Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor’s corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

1.4.5.4. CAC Requirements: The Common Access Card (CAC) is the Department of Defense Federal Personal Identity Verification (PIV) credential. In accordance with DoDM 1000.13, Volume 1, initial issuance of a CAC requires at a minimum, the completion of Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) fingerprint check with favorable results reflecting "No Record" and submission of a National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM), or a DoD-determined equivalent investigation. The issuance of a CAC will be based on four criteria; (a) eligibility for a CAC; (b) verification of DoD affiliation from an authoritative data source; (c) completion of background vetting requirements according to the Federal Information Processing Standards Publication 201-2, Personal Identity Verification (PIV) of Federal Employees and Contractors, September 2013, and DoD 5200.2-R, Personnel Security Program, January 1987, and (d) verification of a claimed identity. CAC eligible personnel must be registered in the Defense Enrollment Eligibility Reporting System (DEERS) through either an authoritative personnel data feed from the appropriate Service or Agency or Trusted Associate Sponsorship System (TASS).(if Needed)
1.4.5.4.1. HSPD-12 Background Investigation Requirements: The Contractor shall ensure Common Access Cards (CACs) are obtained by all contract or subcontract personnel assigned to work on the Government site and by personnel requiring access to a DoD network. The Contractor will not need access to Government computer and utilize their own resources to obtain CAC which to include access to their own Trusted Associate Sponsor System (TASS) representative and other eligible populations as specified in DoDM 1000.13, Volume 1 are required to, at a minimum, have received a favorable FBI fingerprint check and must have submitted to the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) a National Agency Check with Inquiries (NACI) or equivalent/higher investigation. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure that all employees requiring an initial background investigation complete a Personnel Security Investigation Portal (PSIP) form, at the earliest possible date and that this form is forwarded to the COR immediately. The COR will review the form for completeness and accuracy and forward to the NGB Personnel Security manager who will initiate the investigation process via the PSIP. Contractor personnel will then receive two e-mail messages; the first will confirm that the request has been received by the Office of Personnel Management, and the second will provide instructions for the completion of the appropriate form via the Electronic Questionnaires for Investigations Processing (e-QIP) system. Upon completion of the e-QIP questionnaire and submittal of all required documents, including fingerprint card to the security manager, the Background Investigation (BI), will be initiated. The Contractor shall ensure all instructions regarding background investigation processing, including those provided verbally, by e-mail or via a Government system are complied with immediately. The Contractor is cautioned that the entire process from submittal of the PSIP form to return of the FBI fingerprint check may routinely take from 2-6 weeks and shall factor this lead time into its hiring/placement process. The Contractor shall make all reasonable efforts to ensure that Contractor employees meet CAC eligibility standards upon assignment to the contract and shall be held responsible for delays, failure to meet performance requirements or decreases in efficiency in accordance with the applicable inspection clause.
