About this file

This is a Past Performance Reference Questionnaire template for a non-personal physician services contract at Tohatchi Health Center in Tohatchi, New Mexico, solicitation number 75H71026Q00228, issued by the Indian Health Service under the Department of Health and Human Services. The 100% Indian-owned Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) set-aside solicitation requires offerors to submit a minimum of three (3) and a maximum of five (5) completed questionnaires from past performance references, with all questionnaires due directly to the Contracting Officer, Misty Billy (Misty.Billy@ihs.gov), no later than 10:00 am MDT on August 31, 2026. Questionnaires must be submitted directly by references and not on behalf of references by the offeror.

Critical evaluation areas include continuity of physician coverage for all required shifts, credential compliance and maintenance of current licensure, vacancy response timeliness, clinical quality of care, medical record documentation compliance, credentialing pre-placement timeliness, performance in rural and tribal healthcare settings, communication and responsiveness to government representatives, professionalism and conduct of placed physicians, and overall contractor satisfaction. Each reference must include supporting narratives for all ratings and provide a recommendation regarding contractor suitability for similar physician staffing contracts in rural, remote, tribal, or federally operated healthcare settings.
