AI Contract Overview
This contract outlines the implementation of the revised Medicare fee-for-service appeals process as mandated by Section 521 of the Benefit Improvement and Protection Act of 2000. It requires the establishment of Qualified Independent Contractors (QICs) to handle the second level of appeal by conducting reconsiderations and expedited reconsiderations of Medicare claim redeterminations within a strict 30-day timeframe. These QICs will adjudicate appeals for Part A claim determinations and replace the Part B hearing level of appeal, using established protocols. Additionally, QICs will manage the collection and transmission of information related to these appeals through the Medicare Appeals System (MAS). In conjunction with the QICs, the contract also calls for the creation of an Administrative QIC (AdQIC), responsible for providing technical support for the MAS, as well as for tracking and distributing data on reconsiderations, updating protocols, and conducting training. The procurement anticipates awarding multiple Indefinite Delivery Indefinite Quantity contracts with a base period and multiple option periods. Interested companies may contact the designated Contract Specialist, Cathy Baldwin, to be included on the bidders list and to receive additional information. The Request For Proposal is expected to be released in early October 2003.
