Statement of Work (SOW) / Performance Work Statement (PWS)

This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) outlines the systematic method the Government will use to evaluate contractor performance for a stated contract related to Medicare and Medicaid services, specifically within a Nursing Home Care context. The QASP details what will be monitored, how monitoring will occur, who will conduct it, and how efforts and results will be documented.

This document does not detail how the contractor accomplishes the work but focuses on the Government's responsibility to objectively evaluate performance. It establishes that the contractor is responsible for their own management and quality control actions to meet contract terms.

The QASP includes a table detailing specific performance indicators and standards for the Nursing Home Care contract. Key metrics include:

• Providing copies of all State/Federal licenses, certifications, and investigation reports upon request (100% standard).
• Cooperating in developing corrective action plans (100% standard).
• Notifying the VA of veteran hospitalizations within 72 hours and deaths within 24 hours (95% acceptable quality level).
• Notifying the VA of all reportable events on VA contract veterans and facility sentinel events within 24 hours (100% standard).
• Ensuring medical records are accessible and accurate (100% standard).
• Timely and accurate invoicing (95%-100% acceptable quality level).
• Immediately notifying the Contracting Officer of a Change of Ownership (CHOW) (95%-100% acceptable quality level).

Not explicitly detailed in this excerpt, but the QASP is a "living document" subject to regular review and revision, with changes coordinated with the contractor.

• Government Roles: Includes Contracting Officer (CO) for overall contract performance and ensuring fair treatment, and Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) for technical administration and maintaining a quality assurance file.
• Contractor Representatives: Program Manager and Other Contractor Personnel, as assigned by facility.
• Surveillance Methods: Direct Observation, Periodic Inspection, User Survey, Validated Complaints, Inspection, Periodic Sampling, Random Sampling, Progress/Status Meetings, and Analysis of Contractor's Progress Reports.
• Ratings: Performance will be rated as positive, neutral, or negative based on established standards.
• Documenting Performance: Both acceptable and unacceptable performance will be documented. For unacceptable performance, a Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR) may be issued, requiring a corrective action plan from the contractor.
• Frequency of Measurement: The COR and CO will periodically analyze the appropriateness of surveillance frequency and meet with the contractor as needed for assessments.
