JOFOC May 2023-April 2024 Signed.pdf

This is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) document for comprehensive medical services (CMS) at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) in Berlin, New Hampshire. The document justifies the sole-source award to Integrated Medical Services (IMS) for the period of May 1, 2023 through April 30, 2024, with an estimated total cost of $660,000.

The justification explains that IMS is the incumbent provider and has agreed to maintain their previous Medicare benchmark rates while continuing to provide essential medical, dental, and mental health services through their established network of local medical facilities and physicians. The document cites the immediate need to maintain continuity of care for the inmate population as the primary reason for the sole-source award, while the Field Acquisition Office (FAO) works toward a new competitive acquisition. The requirement will be publicized through the Governmentwide point of entry, and IMS's rates were previously determined fair and reasonable under contract DJBP021800000097. The services include inpatient/outpatient facility services, physician services, and optometry services, with all provider credentialing and background clearances already completed.
