Evan Seltzer

Evan Seltzer serves as a Contracting Officer at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), where he plays a pivotal role in executing complex procurements that support the agency’s mission to expand equitable healthcare access and improve care quality through data-driven solutions. He manages a broad portfolio of acquisition actions spanning health plan administration, claims processing, and technology modernization initiatives, primarily under the authority of the Federal Acquisition Regulation. His work ensures that CMS contracts align with statutory requirements and strategic priorities, including the integration of advanced analytics, member services, and interoperable health information systems. Seltzer maintains long-standing relationships with key contractors including Maximus Federal Services, Peraton Enterprise Solutions, Novitas Solutions, National Government Services, and General Dynamics Information Technology. These partnerships are characterized by sustained performance, compliance with CMS’s stringent operational standards, and consistent delivery of mission-critical services such as Medicare enrollment support, provider payment integrity, and digital platform management. His contracting approach emphasizes performance-based outcomes, robust oversight, and risk mitigation in high-volume, high-impact environments. Seltzer’s procurement activity reflects a strong preference for full and open competition, with 100% of his acquisitions conducted without set-asides, including no use of 8(a), HUBZone, or SDVOSB programs. This reflects CMS’s operational need for large-scale, enterprise-grade service providers capable of managing nationwide systems with stringent compliance and scalability requirements. His primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 524114 (Direct Health and Medical Insurance Carriers), which accounts for 87.5% of his activity, indicating deep expertise in health plan administration, utilization management, and insurance operations support. The remaining 12.5% involves NAICS 541211 (Certified Public Accountants), supporting financial audit and claims integrity functions. Seltzer’s technical domain centers on healthcare financing systems, regulatory compliance, and large-scale beneficiary services delivery.
