C201501 - 1 Year Extension

The New York State Office of the Medicaid Inspector General (OMIG) has approved a single-source exemption to extend the existing contract C201501 with Health Management Systems, Inc. (HMS) for an additional year until April 6, 2025. This exemption, granted on March 28, 2024, allows OMIG to bypass advertising requirements and directly extend the contract for Third Party Liability Match and Recovery services, which are essential for Medicaid program integrity efforts across all NYS counties. The contract's original term runs from April 7, 2024, to April 6, 2025, with the extension maintaining continuity of services without interruption. The contract was awarded as a single-source due to HMS being the sole provider capable of delivering these specialized Third Party Liability services. The procurement process and extension details are publicly available, with the response deadline for comments or questions set for April 5, 2024. The contract management contact is Edwin Lake III, reachable via email or phone, and the services are performed at the NYS Office of the Medicaid Inspector General located in Albany, NY. This extension ensures ongoing recovery efforts to identify and recover Medicaid funds through third-party liability matching, supporting the state's compliance and fiscal integrity initiatives.
