About this award
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded a task order valued at $6.33M to American Institutes for Research in the Behavioral Sciences (AIR) on February 21, 2017, for the Quality Payment Program (QPP) Small Underserved and Rural Support (SURS) Central Support initiative. This task order was issued under the Research, Measurement, Assessment, Design and Analysis (RMADA) indefinite delivery vehicle, a CMS contract vehicle designed to procure research, evaluation, and technical assistance services. The contract, structured as a cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order with no small business set-aside, was ultimately completed on February 20, 2021, and was performed in Columbia, Maryland. AIR, a prominent nonprofit research organization headquartered in Arlington, Virginia, brings extensive expertise in healthcare program evaluation and technical assistance to support CMS initiatives across multiple domains.
The award supports CMS's Quality Payment Program, which represents a key component of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation's value-based care initiatives. The SURS Central Support component specifically addresses the needs of healthcare providers in underserved and rural communities, ensuring equitable access to technical resources and program guidance. AIR's involvement demonstrates CMS's reliance on specialized research and evaluation organizations to design and implement support mechanisms for vulnerable provider populations. While specific subcontractor arrangements are not detailed in this award, AIR's organizational structure and prior work indicate capacity to leverage subject matter expertise in healthcare policy, data analytics, and provider support systems to deliver comprehensive central support services to rural and underserved healthcare organizations participating in the Quality Payment Program.
