Common use of Delegate Agencies Clause in Contracts

Delegate Agencies. If LPHA has a Subcontract for Immunization Services LPHA must complete a Delegate Addendum. A new Delegate ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ must be signed when either of the authorized signers changes or upon request. (Quality Assurance only) LPHA must participate in Delegate Agency’s biennial VFC compliance site visits with an OHA site visit reviewer. Vaccines must be administered as directed in the most current, signed version of OHA’s Model Standing Orders for Immunization Protocols. LPHA must ensure that Clinical Immunization Staff annually view a minimum of one hour of immunization-specific continuing education like the Epidemiology and Prevention of Vaccine-Preventable Diseases program or the annual Immunization Update. Other immunization continuing education from sources like the CDC, Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, American Academy of Pediatrics, etc. are also acceptable. In connection with the administration of a vaccine, LPHA must: Confirm that a recipient, parent, or legal representative has read, or has had read to them, the VIS and has had their questions answered prior to the administration of the vaccine. Make the VIS available in other languages or formats when needed (e.g., when English is not a patient’s primary language or for those needing the VIS in braille.) Provide to the recipient, parent or legal representative, documentation of vaccines received at visit. LPHA may provide a new immunization record or update the recipient’s existing handheld record. Screen for contraindications and precautions prior to administering vaccine and document that screening has occurred. Document administration of an immunization using a vaccine administration record or electronic equivalent, including all federally-required charting elements. (Note- ALERT IIS does not record all federally-required elements and cannot be used as a replacement for this requirement.) If LPHA documents vaccine administration electronically, LPHA must demonstrate the ability to override a VIS date in their EHR system to record the actual publication date.. Comply with state and federal statutory and regulatory retention schedules, available for review at ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/archives/Documents/recordsmgmt/sched/schedule-health-public.pdfhttp://▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇.▇▇/doc/recmgmt/sched/special/state/sched/20120011ohaphdrrs.pdf, or OHA’s office located at ▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇.
