This is Addendum No. 1 to RFP #27-011 for EMS Billing Services issued by the City of Albany Procurement Division on behalf of Dougherty County, Georgia. The addendum, dated July 31, 2026, modifies the original solicitation for end-to-end ambulance billing and revenue cycle management services for the County's emergency, non-emergency, and critical care transport operations. The proposal closing date and time remain September 1, 2026, at 5:00 p.m. The addendum adds a virtual attendance option for the pre-proposal meeting via Zoom, providing qualified proposers with an alternative to in-person participation. The contract term is one year firm price with three one-year renewal options, with annual fee adjustments permitted based on the Consumer Price Index.

The addendum does not modify pricing terms, insurance requirements, staffing or financial stability documentation, or evaluation criteria from the original RFP. Proposers must continue to submit one original and six copies of their proposals on company letterhead and acknowledge receipt of the addendum on the bid form. Evaluation remains weighted across Qualifications & Experience (35 percent), Operational Plan & Approach (35 percent), Quality of Response (20 percent), and Fees/Cost (10 percent). All proposals become property of Dougherty County upon receipt, and the County retains the right to reject any and all proposals or postpone the process.
