About this file
This is a Standard Form 30 (Amendment of Solicitation/Modification of Contract) issued by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), Division of Data Center Contracts, on March 9, 2026. The amendment (0001) modifies solicitation 75FCMC26R0022, dated February 27, 2026, for Medicare claims processing software services. The contracting officer is Candace Straker, and the contract specialist is Lauren Holsey, both from CMS's Baltimore, Maryland office. The amendment provides responses to RFP questions, an amended Statement of Objectives (Attachment 1), amended Instructions to Offerors (Attachment 3), and an amended pricing attachment for beneficiary quantities and claims volume (Attachment 6). Additionally, the amendment consolidates responses to ClaimsCore solicitation questions in Attachment 10.
The amendment introduces a True Up Clause for pricing adjustments based on actual versus estimated beneficiary and claims volumes. Fixed unit prices apply to CLINs 0004, 0006, 0008, 0010, 0012, and 0014 on a monthly per-beneficiary or per-claim basis. The contractor must annually deliver a report 90 days before the end of each performance period detailing changes between estimated and actual beneficiary or claims volumes, including historical trends, projected volumes, and anticipated population changes. The Contracting Officer may then prospectively adjust prices for subsequent option periods using unit rates from the revised attachment. All adjustments are prospective only; no retrospective adjustments for volume variances will be made. The amendment removes clause 52.204-15 (RFO Service Contract Reporting Requirements for Indefinite-Delivery Contracts) and evaluation factor 52.217-5 (RFO Evaluation of Options), both effective November 2025.

Summary of Changes
Special Contract Requirements
The following miscellaneous text was changed:
The Medicare claims processing software services being performed by the Contractor are described in the True Up Clause:
Performance Work Statement (PWS) associated with this contract. The beneficiary quantities, claims volume, and their associated unit prices are detailed in Attachment 6 - Beneficiary Quantities Claims and Unit Pricing. Fixed unit prices represent a monthly price per beneficiary or per claim to provide software services for the period of performance associated with CLIN 0004, CLIN 0006, CLIN 0008, CLIN 0010, CLIN 0012, and CLIN 0014.
Once annually, the firm fixed price of must be CLIN 0004, CLIN 0006, CLIN 0008, CLIN 0010, CLIN 0012, and CLIN 0014 prospectively adjusted to reflect changes between actual and estimated quantity of beneficiaries or claim volume expected to be served by the Contractor's software in the forthcoming option period.
In support of this process, the Contractor shall deliver to CMS a report 90 days prior to the end of the current period of performance of CLIN 0002, CLIN 0004, CLIN 0006, CLIN 0008, CLIN 0010, and CLIN 0012. The report must indicate changes between the estimated quantity of beneficiaries or estimated claim volume, as set forth in the Contract Attachment referenced above, and the actual number of beneficiaries or claims processed through the software system during the current period of performance. The actual quantity of beneficiaries or claims volume cited in the report should be based on unique beneficiaries or processed claims per month as tracked in the Contractor's system and verified against CMS records.
The report must then calculate the estimated value of the price adjustment to CLIN 0004, CLIN 0006, CLIN 0008, CLIN 0010, CLIN 0012, and CLIN 0014 in the subsequent option period using the unit rates from the Attachment cited above. The report must include:
A revision to the Attachment formatted in MS Excel Supporting basis of estimate for projected beneficiary or claims volumes Historical beneficiary or claim volume trends from the current period Any anticipated changes in beneficiary population or claim volume that may impact pricing
Following review of the report, the Contracting Officer may then adjust the price of CLIN 0004, CLIN 0006, CLIN 0008, CLIN 0010, CLIN 0012, and CLIN 0014 for the subsequent option period via unilateral modification to the contract. All adjustments will be prospective in nature; retrospective adjustments for differences between estimated and actual beneficiary quantities or claims volume will not be considered under this clause. will not be subject to an adjustment under this clause; the CLIN 0002 first CLIN subject to adjustment will be .CLIN 0004
