About this file

This is a pricing table template for a Request for Quotation (RFQ #04/01/2026) for FACA Verbatim Transcription Services to support two congressionally mandated advisory panels: the Medicare Advisory Panel on Clinical Diagnostic Laboratory Tests (CDLT) and the Medicare Advisory Panel on Hospital Outpatient Payment (HOP), issued by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), Department of Health and Human Services.

The contract structure includes a base period (6/1/2026–5/31/2027) and four optional periods extending through 5/31/2031. Contractors must complete all pricing fields marked "TBD" for four service line items (SLINs) across five contract line items (CLINs). The base period requires 900 audio minutes for CDLT and HOP meetings (SLIN 0001AA) at an undetermined unit price, with two optional SLINs (0001AB and 0001AC) for 150 additional audio minutes each, and 16 hours of panel-related support documents (SLIN 0001AD). Subsequent option periods require similar deliverables with varying quantities of meeting audio minutes (600–900 minutes) and consistent 16-hour support document requirements. Payment is contingent upon CMS Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) acceptance of final verbatim transcripts, with contractors invoicing based on actual completed audio minutes and approved level-of-effort estimates for ad hoc panel support tasks. No invoice payment shall exceed the negotiated total price established for each CLIN and SLIN.

Payment will be based on the negotiated amounts set forth in the Price Summary. Under no circumstances will the payment amount in the “Total Price” column of Section 3 Task Order Price Summary be exceeded for any CLIN and/or SLIN under this task order.

A. SLIN 000XAA - The contractor shall bill for the number of Audio Minutes that have been completed during the billing period specified on the subject invoice, at the amount identified in the “Unit Price” column. This SLIN will capture all work for each meeting including all deliverables.

As part of their invoice, the contractor shall provide the quantity of audio minutes completed, the unit price per audio minutes, and the total amount billed for the subject SLIN. The contractor must also indicate which meeting each invoice is for. The contractor cannot bill for this SLIN until the Final Verbatim Transcript is accepted by the COR for each meeting. The invoice shall note the date deliverables were accepted by CMS.

B. SLIN 000XAB (Optional) and SLIN 000XAC (Optional) – If exercised, the contractor shall bill for the number of Audio Minutes that have been completed during the billing period specified on the subject invoice, at the amount identified in the “Unit Price” column.

As part of their invoice, the contractor shall provide the quantity of audio minutes completed, the unit price per audio minutes, and the total amount billed for the subject SLIN. The contractor must also indicate which meeting each invoice is for. The contractor cannot bill for this SLIN until the Final Verbatim Transcript is accepted by the COR for each meeting.

C. SLIN 000XAD The term “Level of Effort Units” within SLIN 000[#]AD represents increments of level of effort provided by the Contractor, in the performance of Panel Related Support Documents (Task 4). The use of “Level of Effort Units” within SLIN 000[#]AD accounts for the variance in the scale and content of the requested tasks, and ensures that payment for these deliverables is fair and reasonable.

In accordance with Task 4 Panel Related Support Documents, this purchase order outlines the process for initiating Ad Hoc Requests, including the requirement for the Contractor to provide a level of effort estimate for approval by the Contracting Officer’s Representative before performing any ad hoc tasks.

Upon each submission and acceptance of Task 4 Panel Related Support Documents the Contractor shall bill for the quantity of “Level of Effort Units” associated with the subject ad hoc task, at the amount identified in the “Unit Price” column for SLIN 000[#]AD.
