Wilkes Barre VA Medical Center (WBVAMC) currently receives contracted primary care clinic services for veterans in the vicinity of Wayne County, PA, through Wayne Memorial Community Health Centers (WMCHC), a large not-for-profit business entity.

WBVAMC is currently in the planning phase for procurement of a long-term contract for these services. To provide continuity of care pending the long-term procurement, the agency intends to negotiate a short-term service contract to include a one-year performance period to commence on 08/01/2026. WMCHC is the only known source that can maintain continuity of care within the required performance period. This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. Parties may identify their interest, accompanied by supporting literature, to the Contracting Officer no later than 05/28/2026 at 2:00 PM Eastern Time.
