SBCTION IV.
ADMINISTRATIVE CONDITIONS OF AGREEMENT
.
r..
Selection of Vendors
This Agreement does not guarantee the Vendor that their serv-
ices will be requested by authorized Contractor staff. This
-5-
~;reement does authorize Contractor staff to purchase services
=~om the Vendor when the ,services are needed by a client.
~here will be more than one Vendor, unless only one applies,
i~ each of the State MSSP Service Categories. Selection
c= the Vendor to provide specific services for a client will
~e based on the following criteria:
1. Lowest unit rate for the specific services needed.
2. Vendor services available where client resides.
3. Ability of Vendor to perform the services at the time(s)
requested by Contractor staff.
~. Quality of the services provided by the Vendor to previ-
ous Contractor clients. As SHAHC clients are frail and
have diminished physical and social capabilities, they
are dependent upon staff to arrange for services which
they themselves would choose if they were more independ-
ent. Thus, the quality of service provided includes
not only factors related to the performance of work tasks
but also the manner in which the Vendor relates to the
SHAHC client.
3. Changes
Once the Agreements with all Vendors are signed and approved
by ~he State MSSP Administrator, a complete list of all Ven-
dors, services, geographic areas served, and unit/rates per
service will be compiled and made available for review at
the MSSP Office. During the course of the year current Ven-
dors may request to amend their existing Agreement. A re-
~~est to amend an existing Agreement must be made in writing
to the Contractor.
Contractor may from time to time request changes in the scope
of services of Vendor to be performed hereunder. Such changes,
including any increase or'decrease in the amount of Vendor's
compensation, which are mutually agreed upon by and between
Contractor and Vendor shall be effective when incorporated
in written amendments to the Agreement. No oral understanding
o~ agreement, not incorporated herein, shall be binding on
the parties hereto.
C. Client Confidentiality
The Vendor shall protect from unauthorized disclosure names
ar.c other identifying information concerning persons receiv-
ir.g services pursuant to this agreement, except for statist-
ca1 information not identifying any client. The Vendor shall
?~o~ptly transmit to the Contractor all requests for disclo-
of such information not emanating from the client. The Ven-
cc~ shall not disclose, except as otherwise specifically
pe=~itted by this Agreement or authorized by the client,
a~: such information to anyone other than the Contractor.

ment shall be subject to private use, copyright or patent
right by Vendor in the United States ?r in any other country

tor shall have unrestricted authority to publish, disclose,.
distribute and otherwise use, copyright or patent, in whole

wise evaluate the work performed or being performed hereunder.
