About this award
The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) awarded a delivery order valued at $6.9 million to the National Opinion Research Center (NORC) on September 10, 2019, for the Evaluation of the Pennsylvania Rural Health Model, with performance continuing through March 9, 2027. This effort supports CMS's broader Research, Measurement, Assessment, Design and Analysis (RMADA) program, which tests and evaluates innovative payment and service delivery models designed to reduce Medicare and Medicaid spending while preserving or improving the quality of care for beneficiaries. The contract is structured as cost-plus-fixed-fee and was awarded without a small business set-aside. Work will be performed in Chicago, Illinois, where NORC maintains significant analytical and research capacity.
NORC, a University of Chicago-affiliated non-profit organization and established federal research contractor, brings substantial expertise in program evaluation and health services research to this engagement. The organization frequently partners with specialized subcontractors including ICF Incorporated, The Lewin Group, and healthcare consulting firms to complement its core survey and analytical capabilities. NORC holds multiple large indefinite delivery vehicles across federal agencies, including a $344.7 million contract with the Health Resources and Services Administration for evaluation activities and a $310 million National Immunization Survey contract with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, positioning it as a trusted partner for CMS's complex model evaluation requirements under RMADA.
