Common use of Evaluation of Services Clause in Contracts

Evaluation of Services. The planning council may choose to evaluate how well services funded by RWHAP Part A are meeting identified community needs, or it can pay someone else to do such an evaluation. The Part A recipient’s CQM program can provide information on clinical outcomes that informs the planning council about the impact of services. The recipient may include planning council members on its CQM committee. In addition, most planning councils regularly review EMA/TGA performance along the HIV care continuum. The planning council uses evaluation findings in considering ways to improve the system of care, including changing service priorities and allocations and developing directives. To carry out the array of planning tasks described above the planning council meets regularly throughout the year, as a whole and in committees. See Appendix II for a sample calendar describing the approximate timing of various planning council activities by months of the year.
