            Subpart 101-5.3_Federal Employee Health Services

 

Sec. 101-5.303  Guiding principles.



    The following principles will control the scope of the health 

services to be provided in keeping with the objective:

    (a) Employees who work in groups of 300 or more, counting employees 

of all departments or agencies who are scheduled to be on duty at one 

time in the same building or group of buildings in the same locality 

will constitute the minimum number of employees required to warrant the 

establishment of a health service of a scope specified in Sec. 101-

5.304.

    (b) As an exception to paragraph (a) of this section, health 

services of the scope specified in Sec. 101-5.304 may be provided for 

employees who work in groups of less than 300 where the employing 

department or agency determines that working conditions involving 

unusual health risks warrant such provision.

    (c) Treatment and medical care in performance-of-duty cases will be 

provided to employees as set forth in the Federal Employees' 

Compensation Act (5 U.S.C. 751 et seq.).

    (d) Reimbursable costs for providing health services will be based 

on an operating budget which is a summary of all costs required to 

operate the health service. The reimbursement cost is prorated to 

participating agencies by means of a per capital formula computed by 

dividing the operating budget of the health service by the total number 

of employees sponsored for service. The size of the Federal population 

served, the compensation of the employees of the health unit, and other 

factors of medical economics prevalent in the area are factors which 

affect the local reimbursement cost. Further, in appropriate cases where 

more than one health unit is servicing employees housed in the same 

general locality, costs may be equalized by combining the operating 

budgets of all such units and dividing the total of the operating 

budgets by the number of employees sponsored. Special industrial 

conditions or other abnormal health or accident risk environments may 

increase the per capita cost.
