I. Background
1of10 Attachment 2: Performance Work Statement FCI McKEAN-Comprehensive Medical Services
The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) was established in 1930 to provide more progressive and humane care for Federal inmates, to professionalize the prison service, and to ensure consistent and centralized administration. Today, the BOP is responsible for the custody and care of approximately 185,000 Federal offenders. The Federal prison system is a nationwide system of prisons and detention facilities for the incarceration of inmates who have been sentenced to imprisonment for Federal crimes and the detention of individuals awaiting trial in Federal court. It is the mission of the Federal Bureau of Prisons to protect society by confining offenders in the controlled environments of prisons and community-based facilities that are safe, humane, cost-efficient, and appropriately secure, and that provide work and other self improvement opportunities to assist offenders in becoming law-abiding citizens.
As an agency under the Executive Branch of the United States Government, the BOP receives an annual appropriation of funds to accomplish its assigned mission. The public trust demands that this annual appropriation be prudently managed . Thus, dollars spent to maintain the health of the inmate population must reflect the agency's best efforts to obtain cost-effective health care consistent with community standards.
In meeting the health care needs of a growing inmate population, the BOP provides essential medical, dental , and mental health services to Federal inmates with BOP resources. When a medical need arises which cannot be provided within prison walls by BOP resources, referrals are then made to community based providers. It is the goal of this solicitation to establish a contractual agreement that will provide necessary professional and facility services for both inpatient admissions and outpatient encounters.
The Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) McKean located in Lewis Run, Pennsylvania intends to make a single award to a responsible entity for the provision of Comprehensive Medical Services as set forth in this solicitation/contract. FCI McKean consists currently houses male inmates. Presently, the FCI is identified as a Care Level I BOP facility. This administrative classification which generally suffers from serious health issues. Criteria for categorizing an inmate in the Care Level IV category is included as Attachment 6, Medical Classification - Care Level Criteria. Despite this description of the general health of the inmate population, however, needs for inmate healthcare may arise at varying levels of complexity. Classification and designation of inmates is the sole responsibility of the BOP and may change at any time without consideration to the Contractor.
In evaluating offers, the Government will evaluate the proximity of the proposed community-based providers, in addition to other factors , and give preference to those providers located nearest to FCI McKean. A mileage restriction of 40 miles has been placed on this acquisition, the Government reserves the right to determine that the proposed driving distances/conditions to community-based providers pose an unacceptable cost or security risk and to find such offers unacceptable.
II. Organizational Conflict of Interest
The objective of this solicitation is to satisfy the BO P's requirement for the provision of health care to the inmates of FCI McKean. A potential organizational conflict of interest may arise if the awardee is an entity which also holds or participates in a separate contract/agreement with the BOP as a medical claims adjudicator. A possible conflict of interest may exist if the awardee has dual responsibilities for the submission of medical claims for services rendered under the resulting contract and for the adjudication of those medical claims under a separate contract/agreement with the BOP.
6of10 Attachment 2: Performance Work Statement FCI McKEAN-Comprehensive Medical Services
