About this file

This performance requirements document (Exhibit B) is for a Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) solicitation for Medical Invoicing Review Services. The document outlines eight key performance requirements that bidders must address, including demonstrating experience in reducing medical bills, processing volume and savings history, methodology for reviewing medical procedure codes, experience with pre-authorization negotiations, and network relationships with specific Northwest Washington healthcare providers. The requirements emphasize the need for quick turnaround times, with pre-authorization negotiations expected within 48 hours of WSDOT's request.

The scoring system is based on Mandatory Pass/Fail (M) and Mandatory Scored (MS) criteria, with most requirements worth 10 points each. Bidders must provide detailed written responses explaining their capabilities and experience for each requirement. The document requires bidders to demonstrate relationships with major healthcare providers including Virginia Mason Medical Center, Swedish Medical Center, The Everett Clinic, and several other specific facilities. Additionally, bidders must ensure that a minimum of three client references submit completed reference forms directly to the RFQQ Coordinator.
