State agencies, county governments, and independent districts are the primary issuing bodies, with heavy activity from Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Kentucky Department of Corrections, California state agencies, and county sheriff and fire departments. The Texas HHSC alone has posted multiple recent bids for wound care consultation, podiatry, and sonography services at state-supported living centers. Kentucky's Department of Corrections issued successive RFPs for comprehensive medical services across its correctional system; the Commonwealth of Kentucky is procuring statewide correctional healthcare through RFP 500-2600000380 (proposals due July 16, 2026), a single large award covering medical and psychiatric services for approximately 6,725 inmates across thirteen facilities with a new 353-bed medical and mental health institution opening in late summer 2026 and the Kentucky State Reformatory closing in late 2026. Geographic concentration is heaviest in Texas (HHSC state-supported living centers), Kentucky (Department of Corrections statewide), California (Department of Veterans Affairs, CalFire), and Florida (county medical director and occupational health contracts), with scattered activity in Georgia, Mississippi, Oregon, Washington, and other states.
