This requirement covers accreditation for VHA Medical Facilities, Ambulatory Care Facilities, Consolidated Mail Outpatient Pharmacies (CMOPs), and Opioid Treatment Programs (OTPs).

Accreditation surveys required are both Triennial and Out-of-Cycle, including For-Cause, Extension, and Follow-Up Accreditation Surveys.� Services require an accrediting body approved by Substance Abuse and Mental Healthcare Services Administration (SAMHSA), recognized by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), and the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) that covers all required disciplines for healthcare organizations and facilities identified above. The Government intends to negotiate with only one source as implemented by the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 6.302-1 Only One Responsible Source and No Other Supplies or Services Will Satisfy Agency Requirements.
