Methodology for Collecting Household-Reported Variables Clause Samples

Methodology for Collecting Household-Reported Variables. During each round of the MEPS-HC, respondents were asked to supply the name of any prescribed medicine they or their family members purchased or otherwise obtained during that round. For each medicine in each round, the following information was collected: whether any free samples of the medicine were received; the name(s) of any health problems the medicine was prescribed for; the number of times the prescription medicine was obtained or purchased; the year and month in which the person first used the medicine; and a list of the names, addresses, and types of pharmacies that filled the household’s prescriptions. In the HC, respondents were asked if they send in claim forms for their prescriptions or if their pharmacy providers do this automatically for them at the point of purchase. For those who said their pharmacy providers automatically send in claims for them at the point of purchase, charge and payment information was collected in the pharmacy follow-back component. However, charge and payment information was collected in the HC for those who said they send in their own prescription claim forms, because it is thought that payments by private third-party payers for those who filed their own claim forms for prescription purchases would not be available from pharmacies. Uninsured persons were treated in the same manner as those whose pharmacies filed their prescription claims at the point of purchase. Persons who said they did not know if they sent in their own prescription claim forms were treated as those who said they did send in their own prescription claim forms. In consultation with an industry expert, outlier values for the number of times a household reported purchasing or otherwise obtaining a prescription drug in a particular round were determined by comparing the number of days a person was in the round to the number of times the person was reported to have obtained the drug in the round. For these events, a new value for the number of times a drug was purchased or otherwise obtained by a person in a round was imputed. In addition, for rounds in which a household respondent did not know/remember the number of times a certain prescribed medicine was purchased or otherwise obtained, the number of fills or refills was imputed. For those rounds that spanned two years, drugs mentioned in that round were allocated between the years based on the number of times the respondent said the drug was purchased in the respective year, the year the person st...

Contractor shall report quarterly Contract sales in Enterprise Services’ Contract Sales Reporting System. Enterprise Services shall provide Contractor with a login password and a vendor number. The password and vendor number shall be provided to the Sales Reporting Representative(s) listed on Contractor’s Bidder Profile. Data. Each sales report must identify every authorized Purchaser by name as it is known to Enterprise Services and its total combined sales amount invoiced during the reporting period (i.e., sales of an entire agency or political subdivision, not its individual subsections). The “Miscellaneous” option may be used only with prior approval by Enterprise Services. Upon request, Contractor shall provide contact information for all authorized Purchasers specified herein during the term of the Contract. If there are no Contract sales during the reporting period, Contractor must report zero sales. Due dates for Contract Sales Reporting. Quarterly Contract Sales Reports must be submitted electronically by the following deadlines for all Contract sales invoiced during the applicable calendar quarter: Vendor Management Fee. Contractor shall pay to Enterprise Services a vendor management fee (“VMF”) of 1.25 percent on the purchase price for all Cooperative Purchasing Agreement sales (the purchase price is the total invoice price less applicable sales tax) under this Cooperative Purchasing Agreement. The sum owed by Contractor to Enterprise Services as a result of the VMF is calculated as follows: Amount owed to Enterprise Services = Total Contract sales invoiced (not including sales tax) x .0125. The VMF must be rolled into Contractor’s current pricing. The VMF must not be shown as a separate line item on any invoice unless specifically requested and approved by Enterprise Services. Enterprise Services shall invoice Contractor quarterly based on Contract sales reported by Contractor. Contractor is not to remit payment until Contractor receives an invoice from Enterprise Services. Payments must be received within thirty (30) calendar days of the invoice issue date from Enterprise Services. Contractor’s VMF payment to Enterprise Services must reference the invoice number. Contractor’s VMF payment to Enterprise Services must reference this Contract number, the year and quarter for which the VMF is being remitted, and Contractor’s name as set forth in this Contract, if not already included on the face of the check.

Enterprise Services reserves the right, upon thirty (30) calendar days advance written notice, to increase, reduce, or eliminate the VMF for subsequent purchases, and reserves the right to renegotiate Contract pricing with Contractor when any subsequent adjustment of the VMF might justify a change in pricing.
