About this file

This is Amendment 0001 to Solicitation 19BK8025R0001 for health insurance services issued by the U.S. Embassy in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. The amendment makes two key changes: 1) correcting the quantities of insurance categories provided in Section B, and 2) amending paragraph H.8 "Requiring Activity" to specify the U.S. Embassy in Sarajevo as the requiring activity.

The solicitation seeks health insurance coverage for three categories of insured persons: Self-Only (60 individuals), Self Plus One (79 individuals), and Family coverage (298 individuals). The contract includes a base year plus four one-year option periods, with an additional FAR 52.217-8 option to extend services for up to 6 months. Locally Employed Staff will pay 10% of premium costs while riders pay 100%. The contract type is fixed-price with economic price adjustment. The amendment requires acknowledgment through either completing items 8 and 15 and returning 4 copies, acknowledging receipt on each offer copy, or via separate letter/electronic communication referencing the solicitation and amendment numbers.
