THE EVANGELICAL LUTHERAN GOOD SAMARITAN SOCIETY

The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society specializes in delivering skilled nursing care services through federally contracted facilities, primarily serving veterans through the Department of Veterans Affairs. Their core capabilities center on comprehensive long-term care operations, including 24/7 medical supervision, rehabilitation services, medication management, and chronic disease care within certified skilled nursing facilities. They operate under strict federal standards for resident safety, clinical documentation, and regulatory compliance, with expertise in Medicare/Medicaid reimbursement frameworks, resident assessment protocols (MDS 3.0), and care coordination for complex geriatric conditions. Their differentiation lies in integrating faith-based values with evidence-based clinical practices, emphasizing dignity, continuity of care, and personalized service models tailored to veteran populations with post-acute and neurodegenerative needs. The contractor has established a sustained relationship with the Department of Veterans Affairs, consistently providing nursing home services under express and rate-modified contracts. Their work supports VA’s community care initiatives, delivering facility-based skilled nursing as an extension of VA’s integrated healthcare network. This recurring engagement suggests deep familiarity with VA’s operational protocols, reporting requirements, and quality metrics for contracted care facilities. Their primary industry focus is skilled nursing facility operations under NAICS 623110, positioning them as a provider of institutional long-term care for aging and disabled populations with high acuity needs. They specialize in the intersection of federal healthcare contracting and geriatric clinical delivery, serving as a critical node in the VA’s continuum of care for veterans requiring custodial and rehabilitative services. As a Minnesota-based entity structured as an 8H (nonprofit religious organization), they operate under a mission-driven model with no federal small business certifications. Their geographic presence is centered in the Upper Midwest, with a focused government market position as a trusted provider of veteran-centric skilled nursing services within the VA’s contracted care ecosystem.
