§ 731.2

Program information.

Navy Medical Department activities have developed effective working relationships with educational institutions and professional groups through such means as exchange of information and use of services of outstanding civilian specialists in Medical Department training programs. There is a need and opportunity to further this cooperation with local educational institutions through acceptance of trainees from accredited non-Federal institutions as affiliates for part of their training. Programs have been approved for use of clinical and related facilities of some naval hospitals to provide training on a part-time basis for residents, medical students (third and fourth year), clinical psychology interns, student nurses, and other students. Such programs have proven mutually beneficial to the medical activity and to the community. § 731.3 Policy.

Within available resources and to the extent that it does not interfere with the naval Medical Department facility's basic mission, addressees may, after Bureau of Medicine and Surgery and primary support bureau, systems command or office approval, as applicable, participate in cooperative programs with accredited non-Federal educational institutions for the use of clinical and related services of naval Medical Department facilities to provide clinical learning experience for trainees assigned as affiliates for part of their training.

§ 731.4 Requirements.

Formal contracts will not be entered into. An exchange of letters will normally suffice; if desired, however, a memorandum of understanding (§ 731.8), may be entered into as a basis for assignment of trainees by the educational institution and their acceptance by the naval activity. The memorandum shall state conditions for the assignment and acceptance of trainees and the areas and extent of their training assignments. Care shall be taken to assure that documents are no more than statements of cooperative arrangements for making available existing clinical and related facilities. There shall be no obligation, expressed or implied, for the naval activity to expand its facilities or other resources for the purpose of providing training under the program.

§ 731.5

Appointment requirements.

To provide for the acceptance of trainees into the naval activity, excepted appointments shall be made under appropriate sections of schedule A of Part 213 of the Civil Service Regulations (5 CFR Part 213) and only to positions excluded from the Classification Act (5 U.S.C. 5101-5115) under 5 U.S.C. 5102(c) (16). Detailed procedures and requirements for appointment of trainees accepted from non-Federal institutions for a part of their training are contained in § 731.9.

§ 731.6 Prior approval.

On receipt of a request from an accredited non-Federal institution for assignment of trainees as affiliates, a copy of the request, together with the commanding officer's comments and recommendations, should be forwarded to the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, or to the appropriate primary support bureau, systems command or office, via the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, for approval. If approved, the commanding officer will be authorized to complete arrangements by exchange of letters or memorandums of understanding. § 731.7 Reporting.

When a program is operative, a letter report shall be submitted to the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery. The report shall consist of: (a) A listing by parent institution and category of trainee, e.g., "student nurses," "residentin-training (plus specialty designation),”

the number of persons receiving training, and the total of trainees' time spent at the naval activity during the reported period; (b) a narrative statement giving the highlights of clinical experience and training assignments engaged in by the group; and (c) an evaluation by, and recommendations of, the command. Reports shall be submitted within 30 days after completion of each program. (Reports Symbol MED-12195-2.) In the event of unsatisfactory performance of a trainee, the parent institution should be notified as soon as possible, with copy to the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery, Navy Department, Washington, D.C. § 731.8

(a) General. The trainees accepted for training under the program authorized by this part shall be given limited, excepted appointments for temporary, intermittent, or part-time training assignments. A general statement of the program with typical training duties and areas should be stated in writing. Positions of certain trainees assigned or attached to a Federal hospital, clinic, or medical or dental laboratory are excluded from the Classification Act (5 U.S.C. 5101-5115) and the Federal Employees Pay Act (5 U.S.C. 5504, 5505, 5541-5548, 6101) in accordance with the provisions of 5 U.S.C. 5102(c) (16), 53515356 and Federal Personnel Manual, chapter 534, subchapter 2, and Regulation 534 FPM Supplement 990-I (5 CFR Part 534).

(b) Stipends. The Civil Service Commission establishes maximum stipends for trainees. However, trainees from non-Federal institutions assigned to Federal facilities as affiliates for part of their training shall receive no stipend from the Federal facility other than any maintenance that may be provided (Civil Service Regulation-Part 534, FPM Supplement 990-1; 5 CFR Part 534).

(c) Appointing authority and nature of action. (1) Authority has been delegated for the making of excepted appointments under Schedule A to certain trainee positions. In processing appoint

(add "part-time" or "intermittent" as applicable). The authority to be cited on the personnel action is the applicable subdivision and paragraph of Schedule A. Schedule A exceptions which apply to all agencies are listed in Appendix C to Chapter 213 of the Federal Personnel Manual. Sections of Schedule A which apply only to the Department of the Navy are printed in the FEDERAL REGISTER. See 5 CFR Part 213, particularly § 213.3108. A partial listing of Navy exceptions is printed in Navy Civilian Personnel Instruction 310.3-6.

(2) Requests for exclusion of other positions from the Classification and Pay Acts and/or requests for excepting other positions from the competitive service and including them under Schedule A should be submitted to the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery with full supporting information. See Part 534 of the Civil Service Regulations and Appendix B of Chapter 213 of the Federal Personnel Manual; 5 CFR Parts 213, 534.

(d) Physical fitness. The Commission does not require that a Certificate of Medical Examination be obtained for Schedule A appointees. The physical examination requirements met by the trainees for admission to their parent institution should be adequate assurance of their physical qualifications for the training program. Therefore no additional requirements are imposed by the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery.

(e) Security investigation. (1) Due to the nature of the assignment, appointments of trainees should normally be limited to 6 months or less. The security investigation required would be that determined by the commanding officer in accordance with Navy Civilian Personnel Instruction 732.7-8. The investigation normally would not be more than a check of references and local agencies.

(2) Appointments for periods extending beyond 6 months and all appointments where incumbent will be considered as occupying a sensitive-noncritical or sensitive-critical position will require that the additional investigative and security requirements of NCPI 732 be met.

(f) Employment documents and records. The following documents and records must be maintained:

(1) Standard Form 57 or 60-Application for Federal Employment.

(2) Standard Form 50-Notification of Personnel Action.
