JOFOC26-22 PHX Comprehensive Medical Services (Dec 2025 - Feb 2026)-.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other than Full and Open Competition (JOFOC) for medical services at the Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) in Phoenix, Arizona. The U.S. Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Prisons seeks to continue its contract with Naphcare for comprehensive medical services for the inmate population from December 1, 2025, through February 28, 2026, with an estimated total cost of $706,582.02. The contract is being awarded sole-source to Naphcare, which is deemed the only provider capable of ensuring seamless medical service delivery without interruption.

The justification highlights that Naphcare has an established medical network that effectively meets the institution's healthcare needs, providing services through an established network of local medical facilities and physicians. The interim contract is necessary while a competitive contract is being finalized, and Naphcare will continue providing onsite outpatient services at Medicare benchmark rates. The document emphasizes the critical nature of maintaining continuous medical care for the diverse inmate population, noting that any disruption in services could result in significant harm to the government and negatively impact patient care.
