NIGP 96322: Allowances, All Types

NIGP 96322 Allowances, All Types is an Item code under which state and local governments procure revenue cycle audit, compliance review, and related healthcare financial services. The scope of work solicited under this code includes charge description master compliance audits, custom benchmarking analysis, supply linking reviews, clinical appeal writing, and ancillary revenue cycle services — work typically driven by healthcare systems and county health authorities managing reimbursement integrity and billing optimization. Santa Clara Valley Healthcare's March 2026 RFP exemplifies the work stream: the County solicited qualified firms to provide bi-annual compliance audits, benchmarking services, supply linking reviews, and clinical appeal writing under a five-category structure allowing vendors to propose for all categories or select specific service lines without penalty, with an initial one-year term and options to renew for up to four additional years.

The recent opportunity record shows activity concentrated in healthcare-specific state and local entities. Santa Clara Valley Healthcare (part of Santa Clara County, California) posted the revenue review and audit services RFP with a May 27, 2026 response deadline through the County's e-sourcing system. No set-aside designations, budget range, or award value appears in the available materials. The geographic footprint of this code remains limited to the single posted opportunity; broader state and local activity under 96322 is not evident in the recent-opportunities record.
