This is a Bid Tabulation document from the State of New Hampshire's Department of Administrative Services (DAS), Division of Procurement Support Services, reporting on the number of respondents for Request for Proposal (RFP) #3015-25 for Administration of Medical Benefits. The RFP seeks a third-party administrator for the State's Employee and Retiree Health Benefit Plan, covering approximately 27,300 lives including active employees, dependents, and a Special Group of 510 subscribers from other organizations. The proposal response is due April 17, 2025, at 2:00 PM Eastern Time. Two respondents submitted bids for this procurement. The contract will encompass comprehensive medical benefits administration services for employees and non-Medicare retirees located throughout New Hampshire and surrounding New England states, with non-Medicare retiree dependents covered nationwide. The procurement requires the selected vendor to provide plan design, network access, value-based purchasing services, wellness programs, and compliance with federal regulations including Mental Health Parity and Transparency in Coverage rules.

The RFP evaluation criteria will include minimum qualifications, technical scoring, performance guarantees, and financial scoring. The State self-funds its health benefit plan, indicating that the selected administrator will manage claims and operations for a self-funded program rather than a fully insured arrangement. While the specific contract award value is not stated in this document, the scale of the program covering 27,300 lives indicates significant potential contract value. No incumbent vendor is identified in the available documentation, nor are specific set-aside designations mentioned. The procurement is open to qualified third-party administrators with demonstrated expertise in managing large-scale, self-funded health benefit plans and strong technological infrastructure for claims processing and performance compliance.
