Current as of January 02, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(a) Who can apply. VA may award per diem contracts to non–VA community-based providers who provide temporary residential assistance homeless persons, including but not limited to persons with serious mental illness, and who can provide the specific services and meet the standards identified in § 63.15 and elsewhere in this part.

(b) Awarding contracts. Contracts for services authorized under this section will be awarded in accordance with applicable VA and Federal procurement procedures in 48 CFR chapters 1 and 8. Such contracts will be awarded only after the quality, effectiveness and safety of the applicant's program and facilities have been ascertained to VA's satisfaction, and then only to applicants determined by VA to meet the requirements of this part.

(c) Per diem rates and duration of contract periods.

(1) Per diem rates are to be negotiated as a contract term between VA and the non–VA community-based provider;  however, the negotiated rate must be based on local community needs, standards, and practices.

(2) Contracts with non–VA community-based providers will establish the length of time for which VA may pay per diem based on an individual veteran;  however, VA will not authorize the payment of per diem for an individual veteran for a period of more than 6 months absent extraordinary circumstances.

(Authority:  38 U.S.C. 501, 2031)
