Automated Medical Claims Billingview on SAM.gov

This is a notice of intent to award on a sole-source basis and a Request for Quotation (RFQ) for commercial services prepared in accordance with RFO FAR Part 12. This notice and the attachments constitute the solicitation. This is not a request for competitive proposals; however, any responsible source may submit a timely capability statement and quotation for consideration. Solicitation No. 75H71326Q00076 is issued for continuation of the existing automated medical claims billing services used by the Indian Health Service (IHS), Portland Area, Western Oregon Service Unit (WOSU) and Warm Springs Service Unit (WSSU). This single SAM.gov posting covers two separate Service Unit requirements. The Government anticipates issuing two independently funded and administered purchase orders, one for WOSU and one for WSSU. Each purchase order will have separate funding, acceptance, invoicing, and payment records. INTENDED SOURCE AND BASIS FOR SOLE SOURCE The Government intends to issue the contemplated purchase orders to Change Healthcare Operations, LLC, 424 Church Street, Suite 1400, Nashville, Tennessee 37219-2367, UEI C7DYEBLK3PE1, doing business under the Optum/Change Healthcare brand. The intended source currently provides the Assurance Plus medical claims billing service used by the supported facilities. Continued use for the one-year interim period avoids duplicate transition, account setup, payer-connection, testing, and training costs and reduces the risk of interruption to claims processing and reimbursement. See Attachment 3 - Single Source Justification for details. A timely submission from another responsible source will be considered before award. An alternate source must demonstrate that it can provide the required service by October 1, 2026 without material transition delay, unpriced implementation work, or interruption to current claims-processing operations.
