About this file
This document is an Addendum to a Request for Quote (RFQ) issued by the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services (HFS) for a project to conduct quality assurance reviews of Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) Waivers. The project involves reviewing a total of 394 records, including 319 records for the Persons who are Elderly waiver and 75 records for the Persons with HIV/AIDS waiver. The total payments under this contract shall not exceed $99,999.00. HFS uses a representative sampling process to determine the sample size. The Department has provided the ELD Record Review Tool and Persons with HIV-AIDS RR Tool as part of this RFQ.
The Department has indicated that it will not consider a budget greater than the maximum amount of $99,999.00, even if the requirements for contract amounts at or above $100,000 were satisfied per Illinois administrative code. This suggests that the Department has a fixed budget for this project and is not open to increasing it.
