JOFOC May 2023-April 2024 Signed.pdf

This is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) document for comprehensive medical services (CMS) at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) in Berlin, New Hampshire. The document justifies the sole-source award to Integrated Medical Services (IMS) for the period May 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024, with an estimated total cost of $660,000.

The justification explains that IMS is the incumbent provider and will continue providing medical services at their previous Medicare benchmark rates under contract DJBP021800000097. The services include inpatient/outpatient facility and physician services, as well as optometry services for the inmate population. IMS has been the incumbent for over five years and maintains an established network of local medical facilities and physicians. While the Field Acquisition Office (FAO) is working on a competitive acquisition, this interim sole-source award is deemed necessary to maintain continuity of care and avoid disruption of medical services. The requirement will be publicized through the governmentwide point of entry, and the rates have been determined fair and reasonable in accordance with FAR regulations.
