Q999--US Renal Care (USRC) National Dialysis Services Contract (NDSC) National Dialysis Services Contract (NDSC)

The Department of Veterans Affairs has awarded the National Dialysis Services Contract to five nationwide providers—including US Renal Care, Fresenius Medical Care, DaVita, American Renal Associates, and Dialysis Clinic Inc.—to deliver outpatient chronic dialysis and acute kidney injury services to Veterans in community-based facilities. The contract requires contractors to provide, supervise, and monitor all dialysis treatments at their own centers and to offer comprehensive home dialysis training to eligible Veterans, ensuring care is accessible and self-managed where appropriate. Performance is nationwide, with services rendered at contractor-operated facilities wherever Veterans reside, and acceptance of services occurs at those locations under VA oversight. The contract is structured as a multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity instrument with a combined ceiling value nearing $6 billion, though individual award amounts and performance periods are not specified in the available data. The Strategic Acquisition Center in Fredericksburg, Virginia, administers the contract through Gary T. Basile, who serves as the primary point of contact, with no formal set-aside for small businesses or socioeconomic categories applied. While clinical standards are implied through compliance with NAICS code 621492 and the nature of healthcare delivery, specific regulatory codes, packaging requirements, invoicing methods, accounting codes, or detailed inspection criteria are not documented. The award was issued on May 13, 2026, following solicitation 36C10G25R0022, with no amendments or modification numbers noted. Contractors are expected to meet all federal healthcare quality benchmarks for dialysis services, though explicit clauses detailing evaluation factors, special requirements, representations, or certification submissions are not contained in the publicly available award notices.
