VA VISN 8 Nursing Home Care Services 2017

The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 8 established this Master IDIQ for community nursing home care services on November 1, 2016, with ordering closed as of January 31, 2022. This vehicle is no longer accepting new orders and all 41 task orders issued under it have been fully obligated against the $25.3 million combined potential value.

The vehicle contracted exclusively for nursing home services in the VISN 8 geographic footprint covering Florida, Georgia, and Puerto Rico. All 41 task orders employ fixed-price contracting with economic price adjustment, with individual order values ranging from $200,000 to $1.38 million and typical durations extending one to three years.

The contractor base consists of nine distinct primes, with activity concentrated among five facilities: Senior Health Tnf, LLC; The Bridges Nursing And Rehabilitation LLC; Lakeland Investors LLC; Senior Health - Winter Haven, LLC; and Royal Oak Nursing Center, LLC collectively held approximately 72 percent of combined potential value. Each of the top five primes held five task orders, indicating a pattern of recurring facility-by-facility awards. No set-asides were applied; all orders competed unrestricted.

Ordering momentum declined in the final years—the vehicle issued eight orders in 2017, eight in 2018, and nine in 2019, dropping to seven in 2020 and six in 2021 before closing. The customer base consisted entirely of VISN 8; no other federal agency placed orders. All task orders obligated at their ceiling value, indicating no remaining contract capacity or follow-on activity.

This vehicle is inactive for new pursuit. Firms seeking to perform similar work for VA nursing home services in this region would need to pursue future successor contracts through VISN 8's network contracting office in Tampa.
