2.1 Contract Pricing/Sub-Contract Certification
Blocks 19 Through 24 - Contract Pricing/Sub-Contract Certification
Overview Services are required to be provided in accordance with the Performance Work Statement included in this solicitation/contract. Offer-ors are required to submit, as a part of their business proposal, a completed copy of Schedule of Items/Sub-Contract Certification.
Pricing Methodologies
Except for services based on session rates, price proposals will be calculated from benchmarks utilizing Medicare reimbursement methodologies. For each category of services to be provided, offerors will be allowed to propose a variance from the benchmark Medicare rate in the form of a discount from or a premium to Medicare rates established by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. The rates established in the resulting contract shall not be construed as participation in the Medicare program; contract rates will merely be equated to Medicare rates of reimbursement without reductions for deductibles, copayments, or coinsurance. When ap-propriate, outlier payments calculated in accordance with Medicare reimbursement methodologies shall be made in recogni-tion of extremely costly stays. The outlier payment shall be calculated based upon the defined benchmark and will consist of the op-erating portion only. This structuring of the pricing methodology is not intended to be restrictive of any offeror; offerors need only to propose that percentage discount from or premium to the Medicare benchmark rate which will reflect the desired level of payment for the category of services rendered. If during contract performance, it is determined that a necessary contract deliverable is not covered by Medicare reimbursement methodologies, a separate rate shall be negotiated for such deliverable(s).
Medicare Part A. The Medicare benchmark to be utilized for all services covered by Medicare Part A shall be the most current Basic MS-DRG payment (i.e., Operating Federal Rate) established for Core Based Statistical Area (CBSA) 48700, Williamsport, PA. The Basic MS-DRG calculation shall not include any provider-specific adjustments allowed under actual Medicare participation. Offerors may propose a discount from or a premium to Basic MS-DRG rates. (Refer to Attachment 1 of this solicitation.)
Medicare Part B Physician Services and Non-physician Services. The Medicare benchmark to be utilized for all physician and
15B20118R00000001 Page 4 of 55 non-physician services covered by Medicare Part B shall be those rates established in the most current Medicare Part B Fee Schedule for Payment Locality 99 for Pennsylvania. The benchmark charges shall be those established for participating providers. Offerors may propose a discount from or a premium to the benchmark charges.
Medicare Part B Facility Services (including hospital outpatient services and ambulatory surgical centers). The Medicare benchmark to be utilized for all facility services covered by Medicare Part B shall be the most current APC and ASC rates calculated for CBSA 48700, Williamsport, PA. Offerors may propose a discount from or a premium to the benchmark charges.
Skilled Nursing Facility Services. The Medicare benchmark to be utilized for skilled nursing facility services covered by Medicare Part A shall be the most current DRG Payment amount (i.e., Federal Rate) established for CBSA 48700, Williamsport, PA.

2.2 Performance Work Statement
I. Background
The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) was established in 1930 to provide more progressive and humane care for Federal inmates, to professionalize the prison service, and to ensure consistent and centralized administration. Today, the BOP is responsible for the cus-tody and care of approximately 185,000, Federal offenders. The Federal prison system is a nationwide system of prisons and detention facilities for the incarceration of inmates who have been sentenced to imprisonment for Federal crimes and the detention of individu-als awaiting trial in Federal court. It is the mission of the Federal BOP to protect society by confining offenders in the controlled en-vironments of prisons and community-based facilities that are safe, humane, cost-efficient, and appropriately secure, and that provide work and other self-improvement opportunities to assist offenders is becoming law-abiding citizens.
As an agency under the Executive Branch of the United States Government, the BOP receives an annual appropriation of funds to ac-complish its assigned mission. The public trust demands that this annual appropriation be prudently managed. Thus, dollars spent to maintain the health of the inmate population must reflect the agency's best efforts to obtain cost-effective health care consistent with community standards.
In meeting the health care needs of a growing inmate population, the BOP provides essential medical, dental, and mental health ser-vices to Federal inmates by BOP staff. When a medical need arises which cannot be provided within prison walls by BOP staff, refer-rals are then made to community-based providers. It is the goal of this solicitation to establish a contractual agreement that will provide necessary professional and facility services for both inpatient admissions and outpatient encounters.
The BOP intends to make a single award to a responsible entity for the provision of Comprehensive Medical Services for the Federal Correctional Complex (FCC) in Allenwood, Pennsylvania. FCC Allenwood currently houses male inmates. FCC Allenwood is a com-plex comprised of three (3) institutions: a Low Security Correctional Institution (LSCI), a Federal Correctional Institution (FCI), and a United States Penitentiary (USP). The FCC is presently identified as a Care Level II BOP facility at its LSCI and as a Care Level III at its FCI and USP locations. Care Level II and III are intermediate classifications on the four-level scale where Care Level I repres-ents the healthiest inmates and Care Level IV represents inmates with serious health issues. Criteria for categorizing an inmate in the Care Level II and III categories are included as Attachment 2. Despite this description of the general health of the inmate population, however, needs for inmate healthcare may arise at varying levels of complexity.
In evaluating offers, the Government will evaluate the proximity of the proposed community-based providers, in addition to other factors, and give preference to those providers located nearest FCC Allenwood. Although a mileage restriction has not been placed on this acquisition, the Government reserves the right to determine that the proposed driving distances/conditions to community-based providers pose an unacceptable cost or security risk and to find such offers unacceptable.
II. Organizational Conflict of Interest
The objective of this solicitation is to satisfy the BOP's requirement for the provision of health care to the inmates of the FCC. A po-tential organizational conflict of interest may arise if the awardee is an entity which also holds or participates in a separate contract/ agreement with the BOP as a medical claims adjudicator. A possible conflict of interest may exist if the awardee has dual responsiblit-ies for the submission of medical claims for services rendered under the resulting contract and for the adjudication of those medical claims under a separate contract/agreement with the BOP.
Offers received from any firm which holds or participates in a separate contract/agreement for BOP medical claims adjudication ser-vices must address any potential organizational conflict of interest that may arise and must provide a detailed explanation of how such conflicts will be avoided. Offers received from any firm which holds or participates in a separate contract/agreement for BOP medical claims adjudication services which fail to adequately address/resolve potential conflict of interest will be rejected without further con-sideration. This limitation on the eligibility of offerors has been imposed as authorized by Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 9.506.
III. Statement of Output
Within this Performance Work Statement (PWS), necessary services are described in terms of output rather than specific task assign-ments. The BOP desires to make an award to the offeror who can provide the best value, considering the diversity of available services and price, among other criteria specified in Section 5.2. Therefore, the Government may award any or all items, may withhold award of any or all line items, or may award to an offeror who proposes less than the full complement of services contained in this solicita-tion. Accordingly, output items 1 and 2 are optional deliverables while output items 3, 4, and 5 are applicable to all services provided.
Offerors are encouraged to submit comprehensive proposals committing to provide all outputs listed in the solicitation. Offerors who propose less comprehensive approaches will be evaluated accordingly.
