Q201--NEW Savannah CBOC Services

The contract solicitation numbered 36C24925R0057 seeks to establish a new Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) service in Savannah, Tennessee, aimed at providing primary care and mental health services primarily to veterans residing in Hardin County. The solicitation is managed by the Department of Veterans Affairs Network Contracting Office 9, located in Murfreesboro, TN. The contract is structured around a monthly capitated payment system, indicating a fixed monthly rate for delivering comprehensive outpatient care, including onsite services and telehealth, with ancillary support such as pharmacy, laboratory, and diagnostic imaging. This contract replaces an earlier solicitation (36C24924R0059) and reflects an estimated overall award value of approximately $25.5 million. The contracting office’s primary contact for this solicitation is Olivia Cloutier, Contract Specialist, with questions directed to her email. The contractor is required to maintain a physical clinic in Savannah and coordinate clinical operations with the parent VA medical center in Memphis, TN. An amendment was issued to correct the original Request for Proposal (RFP) documents and extend the proposal submission deadline to January 7, 2026, with questions to be submitted by December 16, 2025. The solicitation incorporates standard Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) and Veterans Affairs Acquisition Regulation (VAAR) clauses relevant to commercial services but does not explicitly provide full details of evaluation criteria, contract clauses, or line-item pricing in the publicly available presolicitation materials. Quality assurance will be governed by a detailed surveillance plan including performance metrics related to appointment timeliness, patient access, and care quality. Contractors must comply with robust security and behavioral standards for access to VA systems and data, adhere to wage determinations per the Service Contract Act, and prepare a small business subcontracting plan where applicable. Organizational conflict of interest certifications and immigration compliance attestations are required. Deliverables encompass extensive documentation, certifications, and ongoing reports to ensure accountability and performance transparency. The contract reflects a comprehensive requirement to provide veteran-focused outpatient healthcare services through a well-coordinated clinical model integrating both direct patient care and supportive telehealth capabilities.
