This is a change flyer (Amendment 001) issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA) Division of Procurement and Contracting for the SEVC Dental Services solicitation. The flyer amends the original Invitation for Bids by extending the solicitation closing date to Thursday, November 5, 2026, at 10:00 AM. The solicitation (Number 6100066757) seeks on-site dental services at the Southeastern Veterans Center in Spring City, with proposals originally due October 29, 2026. The contract will be awarded to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder and includes a three-year initial term with two optional one-year renewal periods, with annual price increases capped at 5 percent. Bidders must maintain a practice within a 20-mile radius of SEVC and hold a current Pennsylvania State Board of Dentistry license with a minimum of five years' experience in dental services. Required services include one yearly examination and prophylaxis per resident, weekly on-site service delivery, optional as-needed services, and 24-hour emergency dental services. Bidders must submit pricing for all line items in Appendix A and are prohibited from subcontracting any services.

The contractor must furnish all supplies, equipment, and sterilization materials while staffing the facility with its own employees and providing a backup dentist approved by SEVC. The contractor will bill Medicare, Medicaid, and third-party insurers as primary payers, with SEVC serving as payer of last resort for cost-sharing amounts and uninsured residents up to Medicare/Medicaid UCR rates. The contractor must comply with the Stark Law, Anti-Kickback Statute, False Claims Act, Exclusion Statute, and infection control protocols, and must submit annual attestations confirming exclusion database checks and precluded provider list reviews. Scheduling must be coordinated with facility staff at least one week in advance. Bidders must submit responses electronically through the Commonwealth's SRM procurement system, with written questions due at least 48 hours prior to the bid due date.
