About this file

This document is a Public Q&A document from the Delaware Department of Health and Social Services (DHSS) for a Personal Attendant Services / Support for Participant Direction program. The solicitation is planned as a multi-award contract, with vendors seeking clarification on various aspects of the bidding process. Key details include that no additional state licensure is required beyond a Delaware business license, and Aide-Only Home Health Agencies are eligible to bid for the program.

The document provides guidance for potential vendors, noting that the State of Delaware does not provide direct vendor information but suggests that interested subcontractors can access information through pre-bid attendance sheets and posted awarded vendor lists. For nonprofit providers, a current 501(c)3 status letter is required as part of the application process. The Q&A format addresses vendor questions about licensure requirements, contract type, bidder eligibility, subcontracting opportunities, and nonprofit documentation, offering transparency in the procurement process.
