of community resources accessible to a program participant in compliance with the OAA and HHSC AAA
Access and Assistance guidelines.
The purpose of the system of Access and Assistance is to develop cooperative working relationships with
service providers to build an integrated service delivery system that ensures broad access to and information
about community services, maximizes the use of existing resources, avoids duplication of effort, identifies
gaps in services, and facilitates the ability of people who need services to easily find the most appropriate
Subrecipient.

Edition Date: 911911
a. If the 2nd working day falls on a weekend or holiday, the information shall be delivered by
the close of business on the following business day.
b. The AAA cannot guarantee payment of a reimbursement request received for more than 45
calendar days of service delivery.

basis. Such contributions will be properly safeguarded and accurately accounted for as receipts
and expenditures on Subrecipient's financial reports if contributions are not required to be
forwarded to the AAA. Client contributions (program income) will be reported fully, as
required, to the AAA. Subrecipient agrees to expend all program income to expand or enhance
the program/service under which it is earned.
4. notify the AAA Director immediately if, for any reason, the Subrecipient becomes unable to
provide the service(s).
5. maintain communication and correspondence concerning program participants' status.
6. establish a method to guarantee the confidentiality of all information relating to the program
participant in accordance with applicable federal and state laws, rules, and regulations. This
provision shall not be construed as limiting AAA or any federal or state authorized
representative's right of access to program participant case records or other information relating
to program participants served under this agreement.
7. keep financial and program supporting documents, statistical records, and any other records
pertinent to the services for which a claim for reimbursement was submitted to the AAA. The

Assistance and Legal Awareness services.

advance written notice.
2. The agreement does not guarantee a total level of reimbursement other than for individual
units/services authorized; contingent upon receipt of funds.
3. Subrecipient is an independent provider, NOT an agent of the AAA. Thus, the Subrecipient
indemnifies, saves and holds harmless the South Plains Association of Governments AAA
against expense or liability of any kind arising out of service delivery performed by the
Subrecipient. Subrecipient must immediately notify the AAA if the Subrecipient becomes
involved in or is threatened with litigation related to program participants receiving services
funded by the AAA.

authorization to receive services.
3. maintain communication and correspondence concerning the program participants' status.
4. provide timely technical assistance to Subrecipient as requested and as available.

services are being provided and if applicable, CMS exclusion reviews are conducted.
6. provide written policies, procedures, and standard documents concerning program participant
authorization to release information (both a general and medical/health related release), client
rights and responsibilities, contributions, and complaints/grievances and appeals to all program
participants.

the Subrecipient based on the agreed reimbursement methodology, approved rate(s), service(s)

Certification Regarding Debarment
CERTIFICATION REGARDING DEBARMENT, SUSPENSION, INELIGIBILITY
AND VOLUNTARY EXCLUSION FOR COVERED CONTRACTS AND GRANTS
Federal Executive Order I2549 requires the Texas Health and Human Services (HHS) to
screen each covered potential subrecipient/grantee to determine whether each has a right to
obtain a contract/grant in accordance with federal regulations on debarment, suspension,
ineligibility, and voluntary exclusion. Each covered subrecipient/grantee must also screen
each of its covered sub-subrecipients/providers.
In this certification "subrecipient/grantee" refers to both subrecipient/grantee and sub-
subrecipient/sub-grantee: "contract/grant" refers to both contract/grant and subcontract/sub-
grant.
By signing and submitting this certification the potential subrecipient/grantee accepts
the following terms:
1. The certification herein below is a material representation of fact upon which reliance
was placed when this contract/grant was entered into. If it is later determined that the
potential subrecipient/grantee knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in
addition to other remedies available to the federal government, the Department of
Health and Human Services, United States Department of Agriculture or other federal
department or agency, or the Texas Health and Human Services may pursue available
remedies, including suspension and/or debarment.
2. The potential subrecipient/grantee shall provide immediate written notice to the
person to whom this certification is submitted if at any time the potential
subrecipient/grantee learns that the certification was erroneous when submitted or has
become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.
3. The words "covered contract", "debarred", "suspended", "ineligible", "participant',
"person", "principal", "proposal" and "voluntarily excluded", as used in this
certification have meanings based upon materials in the Definitions and Coverage
sections of federal rules implementing Executive Order 12549. Usage is as defined in
the attachment.
4. The potential subrecipient/grantee agrees by submitting this certification that, should
the proposed covered contract/grant be entered into, it shall not knowingly enter into
any subcontract with a person who is debarred, suspended, declared ineligible, or
voluntarily excluded from participation in this covered transaction, unless authorized
by the Department of Health and Human Services, United States Department of
CERTIFICATION REGARDING DEBARMENT
Page 2
Agriculture or other federal department or agency, and/or the Texas Health and
Human Services, as applicable.
Do you have or do you anticipate having sub-subrecipients/sub-grantees under
this proposed contract? YES NO
5. The potential subrecipient/grantee further agrees by submitting this certification that
it will include this certification titled "Certification Regarding Debarment,
Suspension, Ineligibility, and Voluntary Exclusion for Covered Contracts and Grants"
without modification, in all covered subcontracts and in solicitations for all covered
subcontracts.
6. A subrecipient/grantee may rely upon a certification of a potential sub-
subrecipient/sub-grantee that is not debarred, suspended, ineligible, or voluntarily
excluded from the covered contract/grant, unless the subrecipient/grantee knows that
the certification is erroneous. A subrecipient/grantee must, at a minimum, obtain
certifications from its covered sub-subrecipients/sub-grantees upon each
subcontract's/sub-grant's initiation and upon each renewal.
7. Nothing contained in all the foregoing shall be construed to require establishment of a
system of records in order to render in good faith the certification required by this
certification document. The knowledge and information of a subrecipient/grantee is
not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the
ordinary course of business dealings.
8. Except for contracts/grants authorized under paragraph 4 of these terms, if a
subrecipient/grantee in a covered contract/grant knowingly enters into a covered
subcontract/subgrant with a person who is suspended, debarred, ineligible, or
voluntarily excluded from participation in the transaction, in addition to other
remedies available to the federal government, Department of Health and Human
Services, United States Department of Agriculture, or other federal department or
agency, as applicable, or the Texas Health and Human Services may pursue available
remedies, including suspension and/or debarment.

Indicate which statement applies to the covered potential subrecipient/grantee:
The potential subrecipient/grantee certifies by submission of this certification that
neither it nor its principals are presently debarred, suspended, proposed for
debarment, declared ineligible, or voluntarily excluded from participation in this
contract/grant by any federal department or agency or by the State of Texas.
The potential subrecipient/grantee is unable to certify one or more of the terms in this
certification. In this instance, the potential subrecipient/grantee must attach an
explanation for each of the above terms to which he/she is unable to make
certification. Attach the explanation(s) to this certification.
