The Government will only pay for the actual number of pharmaceuticals ordered. Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive medicines that are essential in performing diagnostic and therapeutic Nuclear Medicine procedures on patients. The New Mexico VA Health Care System Imaging Service, Nuclear Medicine Section requires the ability to received radiopharmaceuticals on a routine daily and/or as needed basis. Because of the critical need for these supplies in a timely manner, only a vendor that can supply the radiopharmaceuticals on an "as needed basis" to the VA Albuquerque, NM can be used. The Nuclear Medicine Section must purchase the radiopharmaceuticals from a vendor that holds an unrevoked USNRC and/or FDA license to produce and distribute radiopharmaceuticals for human administration, and a license to receive, and dispose of radioactive waste. Radiopharmaceuticals must be prepared according to manufacturers package inserts. Deliveries of radiopharmaceuticals will incorporate sufficient lead or high-density metal shielding to comply with all applicable federal and/or state standards relating to shipment of radioactive materials. Shipping containers must comply with state and federal regulations. This includes DOT, DOE, USNRC, and ICC regulations and standards. The radioactive medicines have a very short time (half life) once they are received by the VA to be used for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes. For example, F-18, an imaging agent used on a daily basis, has a viability of only 30 minutes. Once this time has been exceeded, this radioactive medicine is unusable. Other radioactive products, once prepared, can be used up to a maximum limit of about six (6) hours. Due to these time constraints and in order to provide quality patient care, the radiopharmaceutical provider must be located in Albuquerque. The radiopharmaceuticals available on a routine basis should include; F-18 FDG, F-18 NaF, 133Xe, I-123 diagnostic capsule, 99Tcm MAG3, 99Tcm Sulfur Colloid, I-131 therapy dose, 67 Gallium, 99Tcm bulk vial, 99Tcm MDP, 99Tcm Choletec, 99Tcm Cardiolite, 99Tcm DTPA, I-123 diagnostic capsules, In-111 DTPA, 99Tcm MAA, Thallium 201, I-123 Whole Body Dose, I-123 scanning dose. Radiopharmaceuticals will be delivered to the Nuclear Medicine Section: NMVAHCS Imaging Service (114) 1501 San Pedro SE Albuquerque, NM 87108 Packing slips are required for each radiopharmaceutical order.
