Place of Performance VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System Department of Veterans Affairs VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System. PERFORMANCE WORK STATEMENT (PWS) Teleradiology Services-Imaging GENERAL: The Pittsburgh Department of Veterans Affairs has a requirement to provide Veterans within the service area with Teleradiology Services.

BACKGROUND: Physician personnel shortages in the Radiology Services of the Pittsburgh VAMC have created a significant need to provide preliminary and final radiology interpretation for exams performed on off tours and in some cases for exams performed during routine tours to cover leave and staff vacancies. The use of Radiology Services outsourcing should provide a highly cost-effective and expeditious alternative to meet an ongoing need within the VA Healthcare System. The Pittsburgh VAMC uses an electronic image management and distribution system called VISTA Imaging. In conjunction with Vista Imaging, the facility uses Powerscribe and ISite radiology to complete Imaging Dictations. WORK STATEMENT: Contractor shall provide professional teleradiology services for radiology examinations performed at the Pittsburgh VAMC. Contract services will include off-campus film interpretation via network connection to the VA informatics system. Interpretation will include immediate communication of results both when an interpretation is requested STAT or with a critical emergent test result. Contractor must be a U.S. based corporation capable of final interpretation and reporting services via the Contractor s secure Teleradiology network. Interpretation services will be conducted by board certified Radiologists. Contractors shall provide all professional personnel and technical support, medical and other equipment, telecommunication, supplies, and supervision necessary to perform, implement and administer these teleradiology services to meet the specific medical needs of the Pittsburgh VAMC. The Contractor is responsible for all Contractor personnel, Subcontractors, agents, and anyone acting for or on behalf of the Contractor. Records Management Language for Contracts When Federal agencies acquire goods or services, they need to determine what Federal records management

requirements should be included in the contract. Federal contractors often create, send, or receive Federal records. Federal contracts should provide clear legal obligations describing how the contract employees must handle Federal records. Agency records officers, procurement counsel, and acquisitions officers must discuss how to integrate records management obligations into their existing procurement processes. NARA has developed the following language to be included as an agency-specific term and condition in Federal contracts for a variety of services and products. The majority of contracts should include language on records management obligations, but each contract should be evaluated individually. For example, the data-rights paragraph (Paragraph 10 below) may not be appropriate for all contracts. Instead, agencies may be better served by one of the established data-rights clauses in the Federal Acquisition Regulations. This language should not replace specific records management

requirements included within Federal information system contracts.  RECORDS MANAGEMENT OBLIGATIONS A.  Applicability This clause applies to all Contractors whose employees create, work with, or otherwise handle Federal records, as defined in Section B, regardless of the medium in which the record exists.  B.  Definitions Federal record as defined in 44 U.S.C. § 3301, includes all recorded information, regardless of form or characteristics, made or received by a Federal agency under Federal law or in connection with the transaction of public business and preserved or appropriate for preservation by that agency or its legitimate successor as evidence of the organization, functions, policies, decisions, procedures, operations, or other activities of the United States Government or because of the informational value of data in them.  The term Federal record: includes [Agency] records. does not include personal materials. applies to records created, received, or maintained by Contractors pursuant to their [Agency] contract. may include
