OMB Control Number: 2900–0590.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Abstract: VAAR clause 852.237–7,
Indemnification and Medical Liability
Insurance, is used in lieu of Federal
Acquisition Regulation (FAR) clause
52.237–7, Indemnification and Medical
Liability Insurance, in solicitations and
contracts for the acquisition of nonpersonal health care services. It requires
the apparent successful bidder/offeror,
upon the request of the contracting
officer, prior to contract award, to
furnish evidence of insurability of the
offeror and/or all health-care providers
who will perform under the contract. In
addition, the clause requires the
contractor, prior to commencement of
services under the contract, to provide
Certificates of Insurance or insurance
policies evidencing that the firm
possesses the types and amounts of
insurance required by the solicitation.
The information is required in order to
protect VA by ensuring that the firm to
which award may be made and the
individuals who may provide health
care services under the contract are
insurable and that, following award, the
contractor and its employees will
continue to possess the types and
amounts of insurance required by the
solicitation. It helps ensure that VA will
not be held liable for any negligent acts
of the contractor or its employees and
