40DHHS-S3318-Cost Schedule.docx

The document is a cost schedule for a Nevada Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) contract opportunity involving a Psychiatrist service at the Nevada Youth Training Center's Independence High School. The solicitation requests vendor proposals for psychiatric services, with pricing to be submitted as a fixed-flat hourly fee structure, allowing for potential variations in service type billing rates.

The cost schedule indicates that proposed hourly rates should closely align with the current state employee rate of $119.75 per hour for a Senior Psychiatrist, with consideration for additional state employee benefits and insurance coverage. Vendors are advised that proposals significantly deviating from the established state employee compensation framework will receive lower evaluation ratings. The document suggests a preference for pricing that mirrors existing state compensation standards, potentially to ensure competitive and equitable service procurement.
