The RAND Corporation, a nonprofit global policy research organization, has been awarded a multiple-award Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contract titled "Research, Measurement, Assessment, Design, and Analysis 2 (RMADA 2)" by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). This $294,117,647 IDIQ contract provides CMS with a robust tool to obtain analytic support and technical assistance services for models and demonstration programs created under healthcare reform legislation such as the Affordable Care Act and Medicare Access and CHIP Reauthorization Act.
Under this IDIQ, RAND has been awarded two task orders worth $4,902,723 and $19,502,103 respectively. The first task order requires RAND to design and conduct an independent evaluation of the Part D Senior Savings Model, with Wakely Consulting Group and Vanderbilt University Medical Center serving as subcontractors. The second task order involves the evaluation of the Value-Based Insurance Design (VBID) Model, again with Wakely Consulting Group and Vanderbilt University Medical Center providing supporting services, along with Keystrokes, a minority-owned small business, performing transcription work. These task orders do not have set-aside designations and are cost-plus-fixed-fee arrangements with completion dates in 2027 and 2028.
