About this file

This document is an Emergency Purchase Statement from the State of Illinois Chief Procurement Office. It outlines the emergency procurement of credit monitoring services for Medicaid providers affected by a recent data breach involving personally identifiable information (PII). The vendor, Equifax Consumer Services LLC, will provide a one-year credit monitoring subscription for each affected Medicaid provider, as well as administrative services such as mail notification, call center support, and address verification. The original contract term was from June 1, 2021 to August 29, 2021, with an estimated cost of $342,200. The contract has since been extended until December 31, 2021 at no additional cost, as the vendor continues to provide customer support services during the enrollment period.

The vendor was selected because it was the only provider that offered a three-bureau credit monitoring package at a fixed price, which was necessary to control costs. The procurement was funded through state appropriated funds. The final total cost of the contract is $331,839, and the final total term is from July 2021 to December 2021.

ExplanationForSelectingVendor: The Office of General Counsel (OGC) contacted three different companies that could possibly supply these services. The Vendor was chosen because it was the only Vendor that offered a three-bureau credit monitoring package at a fixed price. The fixed price is needed to control costs. And we need increased speed in reviewing all three bureaus given the length of time that has transpired since the breach event as well as due to the sensitive nature of the information involved. Additionally, the Vendor's offer was the most cost effective.
ExplanationSuppliesServices: The Vendor will provide credit monitoring services for a subset of Medicaid providers affected by a recent data breach involving personally identifiable information (PII). The contract will also include administrative services related to the credit monitoring such as mail notification services, call center support and address verification services. HFS will purchase a one-year credit monitoring subscription for each affected Medicaid Provider.
