The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services has awarded four companies spots on a potential $1.5B contract to support CMS’ statutory review functions.
Each contractor will receive a minimum guarantee of $1K under the multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract, CMS said Thursday in a FedBizOpps award notice.
The awardees are:
Avar Consulting
Livanta
Ohio Kepro
Provider Resources
Work includes care quality and beneficiary complaint reviews, service appeal termination and discharge, medical necessity reviews for the Beneficiary and Family Centered Care Quality Improvement Organization, according to a FedBizOpps summary.
Contractors will also help CMS align Medicare services with the Emergency Medical Treatment and Labor Act, which requires hospitals to treat all emergency-level patients regardless of their financial status.
