The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Integrated Service Network 4 (VISN 4) awarded an Indefinite Delivery Contract (IDC) to the University of Pittsburgh Physicians (UPP), a non-profit subsidiary of the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC). The contract, valued at up to $11.9 million through 2031, is for the provision of cardiac surgery physician services at VA facilities in western Pennsylvania. UPP has held several other long-term IDCs with VISN 4 covering specialized medical services including gynecology, urology, plastic surgery, and vascular surgery, demonstrating its status as a key healthcare partner for the VA. The contract does not have a set-aside designation. Under this IDC, the VA has issued multiple fixed-price delivery orders with economic price adjustment to UPP for cardiac surgery physician services, valued at $1.2 million in 2025, $1.2 million in 2024, and $990,000 in 2023. These long-term contracts enable the VA to efficiently procure essential medical services for veterans over extended periods. UPP, as a subsidiary of the renowned UPMC healthcare system, leverages its medical expertise and research capabilities to support federal healthcare initiatives. In addition to the cardiac surgery services provided under the IDC, UPP has participated in federal grant sub-awards, including a research project funded by the National Institutes of Health focused on pediatric voice disorders. This demonstrates UPP's ability to integrate its clinical expertise with research objectives, contributing to the advancement of medical knowledge and treatment methodologies.
