Addendum Five Q&A.docx

This document is a Solicitation Addendum Five containing questions and answers for Nebraska's Medicaid Enrollment Broker solicitation (Number 125920 O3). The solicitation opening date is October 21, 2026, at 2:00 PM Central Time. The addendum, effective October 13, 2026, clarifies that the bid submission deadline remains at 2:00 PM, with only the date changing to October 21, 2026. The solicitation includes a base contract period and multiple option years, with the State confirming eight total option years are available under the contract terms.

The addendum addresses eight cost proposal questions submitted by bidders, primarily focusing on formula corrections and spreadsheet errors in the cost proposal template. Key clarifications include correcting calculation errors in cells H17 and H18 of the operations tab, removing redundant rows, revising formulas in rows 20, 21, 29, and 30 to properly calculate member-based pricing using a formula of 1 member multiplied by Per Member Per Month (PMPM) rate multiplied by 12 months plus 349,999 members multiplied by PMPM multiplied by 12, ensuring the cost proposal reflects all eight option years, and adding formulas to sum option year pricing. The State confirms that bidders will be compensated a fixed implementation price based on the proposed cost submitted on the implementation tab of the cost proposal. A revised cost sheet has been provided to address all identified discrepancies.
