PSC Category Q802-P encompasses clerical medical support services, primarily focused on administrative and support roles within healthcare settings. These services include medical office clerks, medical support assistants, medical appointment clerks, beneficiary services representatives, and related administrative functions. The roles typically involve patient scheduling, records management, documentation processing, and providing administrative support to medical facilities and healthcare organizations.

Federal Contract Awards in this category demonstrate a robust market for medical administrative support, with contracts ranging from $20,000 to over $8 million. The Department of Defense, particularly the Defense Health Agency, and the Department of Veterans Affairs are the most frequent awarding agencies. Contracts are predominantly issued as firm fixed-price delivery orders under larger indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract vehicles like the Medical Administrative Support Services Type I and II 2018 contract. Many awards are made to small businesses, including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses, Women-Owned Small Businesses, and 8(a) program participants. Performance locations span military bases, VA medical centers, and federal healthcare facilities across the United States, with some international locations like South Korea and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

Recent federal contract opportunities include a solicitation from the Indian Health Service for six medical support staff positions at the Santa Fe Indian Health Center, set aside under the Buy Indian Act, and a Department of the Army solicitation for Medical Support Assistant services at the Brian D. Allgood Army Community Hospital in South Korea. These opportunities seek qualified candidates with backgrounds in medical administration, typically requiring a bachelor's degree, relevant experience in healthcare settings, and proficiency in English. The opportunities emphasize the need for administrative personnel who can effectively support medical operations, manage patient interactions, and maintain critical healthcare documentation.
