CFR PART 200 AND FEDERAL CONTRACT PROVISIONS EXPLANATION TIPS and TIPS Members will sometimes seek to make purchases with federal funds. In accordance with 2 C.F.R. Part 200 of the Uniform Administrative Requirements, Cost Principles, and Audit Requirements for Federal Awards (sometimes referred to as “XXXXX”),Vendor's response to the following questions labeled "2 CFR Part 200 or Federal Provision" will indicate Vendor's willingness and ability to comply with certain requirements which may be applicable to TIPS purchases paid for with federal funds, if accepted by Vendor. Your responses to the following questions labeled "2 CFR Part 200 or Federal Provision" will dictate whether TIPS can list this awarded contract as viable to be considered for a federal fund purchase. Failure to certify all requirements labeled "2 CFR Part 200 or Federal Provision" will mean that your contract is listed as not viable for the receipt of federal funds. However, it will not prevent award. If you do enter into a TIPS Sale when you are accepting federal funds, the contract between you and the TIPS Member will likely require these same certifications.
Limits of Insurance A. CLIENT shall provide evidence of General Liability insurance or Tenants Liability Insurance (TULIP at xxxxx://xxxxx.xxxxxx.xxx/ ) of an amount of not less than $1 million per occurrence. If the use of facilities includes physical activities, such as sports camps, the General Liability limit shall be $2 million per occurrence with no athletics activities exclusion.

Limits of Confidentiality The law protects the privacy of all communications between a patient and a psychologist. In most situations, I can only release information about your treatment to others if you sign a consent form that meets certain legal requirements imposed by HIPAA and/or Maryland law. However, in the following situations, no authorization is required: I may occasionally find it helpful to consult other health and mental health professionals about a case. During a consultation, I make every effort to avoid revealing the identity of my patient. The other professionals are also legally bound to keep the information confidential. If you don’t object, I will not tell you about these consultations unless I feel that it is important to our work together. I will note all consultations in your Clinical Record (which is called “PHI” in my Notice of Psychologist’s Policies and Practices to Protect the Privacy of Your Health Information). Disclosures required by health insurers or to collect overdue fees are discussed elsewhere in this Agreement. If you are involved in a court proceeding and a request is made for information concerning your diagnosis and treatment, such information is protected by the psychologist-patient privilege law. I cannot provide any information without your written authorization, or a court order. If you are involved in or contemplating litigation, you should consult with your attorney to determine whether a court would be likely to order me to disclose information. If a government agency is requesting the information for health oversight activities, I may be required to provide it for them. If a patient files a complaint or lawsuit against me, I may disclose relevant information regarding that patient in order to defend myself. There are some situations in which I am legally obligated to take actions, which I believe are necessary to attempt to protect others from harm and I may have to reveal some information about a patient’s treatment. These situations are unusual in my practice: If I have reason to believe that a child, adolescent, or vulnerable adult has been subjected to abuse or neglect, or that a vulnerable adult has been subjected to self-neglect, or exploitation, the law requires that I file a report with the appropriate government agency, usually the local office of the Department of Social Services. Once such a report is filed, I may be required to provide additional information. If I know that a patient has a propensity for violence and the patient indicates that he/she has the intention to inflict imminent physical injury upon a specified victim(s), I may be required to take protective actions. These actions may include establishing and undertaking a treatment plan that is calculated to eliminate the possibility that the patient will carry out the threat, seeking hospitalization of the patient and/or informing the potential victim or the police about the threat. If I believe that there is an imminent risk that a patient will inflict serious physical harm or death on him/herself, or that immediate disclosure is required to provide for the patient’s emergency health care needs, I may be required to take appropriate protective actions, including initiating hospitalizations and/or notifying family members or others who can protect the patient. If such a situation arises, I will make every effort to fully discuss it with you before taking any action and I will limit my disclosure to what is necessary. While this written summary of exceptions to confidentiality should prove helpful in informing you about potential problems, it is important that we discuss any questions or concerns that you may have, now or in the future. The laws governing confidentiality can be quite complex, and I am not an attorney. In situations where specific advice is required, formal legal advice may be needed. Professional Records The laws and standards of the profession require that I keep Protected Health Information (PHI) about each client in their clinical record. In some circumstances, I may keep some information in two sets of professional records. One set is your clinical record. It includes information about your reasons for seeking therapy and how these and related issues impact on your life, your diagnosis, goals for treatment, progress towards the goals, your medical treatment and social history, past treatment records I receive from other providers, reports of professional consultations, billing records, and any reports to insurance carriers or others. You may choose, in writing, to examine and/or receive a copy of your clinical record. Because professional records can be misinterpreted it would be important to first review them together or with another mental health professional. In very unusual circumstances, such as a situation in which in my professional judgment disclosing information would endanger someone’s life, then clinical records would not be released. In those situations, the person would have a right to a summary and to have their record sent to another mental health provider. A copying fee of $.60 per page will be charged. There may be other associated costs for review of records. The other set I keep in some instances is a set of psychotherapy notes. These notes are for my own use and are designed to assist me in providing you with the best treatment. While the contents of Psychotherapy Notes vary from client to client, they can include the contents of our conservations, my analysis of those conversations, and how they impact on your therapy. They also contain particularly sensitive information that you may reveal to me that is not required to be included in your clinical record. These psychotherapy notes are kept separate from your clinical record. While insurance companies can request and receive a copy of your clinical record, they cannot receive a copy of your psychotherapy notes without your signed, written authorization. Insurance companies cannot require your authorization as a condition of coverage nor penalize you in any way for your refusal. You may examine and/or receive a copy of your psychotherapy notes unless I determine that knowledge of the health care information would be injurious to your health. Patient Rights HIPAA provides you with expanded rights with regard to clinical records and disclosures of protected health information. These include requesting that I amend your record; requesting restrictions on what information from your clinical record is disclosed; requesting an accounting of disclosures; determining where protected information disclosures are sent; having any complaints you make about my policies recorded in your records; and the right to a paper copy of this agreement, my policies and procedures, and the attached HIPAA notice form. Minors & Parents Parents of clients 16 years of age who are not emancipated may be allowed by law to examine their child’s records. While privacy in psychotherapy is very important, particularly with teenager, parental involvement is also essential to successful treatment. Therefore, it is my policy when treating 16- to 18-year-olds to request that they agree to my sharing occasional general information about the progress of treatment with his/her parents. Unless I feel discussing disclosure prior to parental notification is not realistic, such as when the child is in danger or is a danger to someone else, I will discuss with the child, what I think is in their best interest to discuss with the parents and preferably both the child and I will talk with the parents together.
