About this award

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services awarded a delivery order valued at approximately $5.5 million to the National Opinion Research Center (NORC), a prominent non-profit research organization affiliated with the University of Chicago, for the Alternative Payment Models and Financial Simulations component of the Medicaid Innovation Accelerator Program. This cost-plus-fixed-fee delivery order, awarded on September 28, 2016, with an ultimate completion date of September 28, 2019, represents work to be performed in Chicago, Illinois. The contract was issued under the Research Measurement Assessment Design and Analysis (RMADA) master indefinite delivery and quantity (IDIQ) vehicle and carried no small business set-aside designation. NORC's scope of work focuses on providing analytical support for alternative payment model development and financial simulation capabilities to support CMS's innovation initiatives aimed at improving Medicaid program efficiency and outcomes.

NORC is well-positioned to execute this effort given its extensive federal contracting experience in healthcare research, policy analysis, and program evaluation. The organization maintains a substantial federal contract portfolio including significant vehicles with CMS, the CDC, the Department of Energy, and numerous other civilian agencies, supported by specialized subcontractors such as ICF Incorporated, The Lewin Group, and domain-specific research partners. NORC's demonstrated expertise in healthcare cost analysis, payment model design, and large-scale data collection directly aligns with the technical requirements of modeling alternative Medicaid payment approaches and conducting financial simulations to inform policy decisions.
