- I. SCOPE OF SERVICES The health services to be provided under this subcontract shall conform, at a minimum, to health services specified in the Job Corps Federal Regulations (Title 20 Code of Federal Regulations, Part 638.510), in the Job Corps Policy and Requirements Handbook (PRH), Chapter 6 and applicable Technical Assistance Guides (TAGs). To accomplish these ends, the Physician shall: A. Provide health services by a Physician a minimum of twelve (12) hours per week. Any additional hours must be approved in advance by the Center Director. The services will be provided at the facilities located at the Center Wellness Services Clinic. Center staff will be provided clinical services in emergency situations only. The maximum weeks of service will not exceed 48 weeks per year. Services are not required during DOL-mandated Center shutdowns that occur during the summer (2 weeks in July) and winter (2 weeks in December). The Agency will not be paid during this period, unless the Physician is required by the Center to provide services or attend Center-mandated training during this shutdown. The Center will notify the Agency of planned shutdowns as early as practicable. B. Develop, implement and monitor the total Center Health Program. Specific duties include, but are not limited to: 1. Advising the Center Director and Wellness Services Staff on all medical and health related matters, including, but not limited to: staffing requirements; student medical terminations, including the furnishing of diagnosis, prognosis, and recommendations for future care; utilization and cost of services; personalization of patient care; and any other health areas deemed appropriate by the Physician and/or the Center Director. 2. Consulting with Center staff on ordering, accounting for and safeguarding health equipment, supplies and medications. 3. With due regard for Job Corps requirements, prioritizing student health needs and setting program direction accordingly. To accomplish this end, the Physician shall confer with the Center Wellness Services Manager (or chief nurse or medic), the Center Dentist and the Center Mental Health Consultant as required. 4. Managing health care costs. To accomplish this end, the Physician shall meet with the Center Director or Center Finance & Administration Director on a quarterly basis to review expenditures for the prior period and establish restraints, if necessary, to stay within budgetary guidelines. The Physician may involve the Job Corps Regional Health Consultants in this process, if needed. 5. Developing a system to promote the coordination and integration of the health components (Medical, Dental, Mental Health, Environmental Health and Health Education) with other Center activities. This will be done in cooperation with the Wellness Services Manager, the Center Dentist and the Mental Health Consultant. 6. Providing advice and assistance to Health Education Instructors on the implementation of the Health Education Program. 7. Ensuring the maintenance, confidentiality and safeguarding of all student health records. 8. Assisting the Center Director to arrange for the required Center quarterly environmental health inspections by a qualified Environmental Health Specialist employed by a public Agency or privately employed. 9.

A cursory medical inspection for each student within the first 48 hours after arrival on-Center and a definitive medical examination and health history of each student within 14 days of arrival on-Center. The medical examination will include the interpretation of all routine laboratory tests and, when necessary, X-rays. (Fees for consultation by a radiologist are not included in this agreement.) Although much of this work may be delegated, the Agency bears the ultimate responsibility for the quality of work performed. 2. Diagnosis and treatment of illness and injury, including the Physician?s availability on-Center for sick calls or appointments as scheduled by the Center Director or his/her representative. 3. Arrangements for preventive immunizations and detection and control of communicable diseases as specified in PRH Chapter 6.10, section R1.d: Immunizations. 4.
