This is a Proposal Award Recommendation from the City of Madison, Wisconsin Finance Department for Ambulance Billing services (RFP #14011-0-2025-BP). The City of Madison sought a vendor capable of managing and processing patient accounts, charges, responsible party invoices, claims, receipts, account disposition, and related documentation and correspondence for its ambulance billing operations. The contract includes an initial one-year term with up to four one-year renewal options. Six proposals were received for evaluation.

The award amount is based on estimated quantities from past years and may fluctuate depending on future volumes; the fixed compensation structure is 2.9% as payment for services. Funding is allocated from GL Account 15100-54640-00000 with current year and next year commitments of $546,000 each. The current year budget available is $170,559, and the next year budget available is $546,000. No local vendor preference applied to this procurement. The evaluation panel's final scoring placed Med-Bill Corporation at 154.45 points out of 200 total possible points, ranking highest after all evaluation rounds and reference verification were completed.
