AMENDMENT NUMBER TWO - Physician and Pediatrician Services for the Woodrow Wilson Keeble Memorial Health Care Center-Sisseton Indian Health Service, Sisseton, South Dakota

The Indian Health Service (IHS) is seeking contractor-provided medical services through this Request for Proposal for the Woodrow Wilson Keeble Memorial Health Care Center in Sisseton, South Dakota. The solicitation covers up to three Family Medicine Outpatient Physicians and one Pediatrician to address an ongoing primary care provider shortage on the Lake Traverse Reservation. Contract physicians must be board-eligible in their respective specialties (American Board of Family Medicine for family physicians and American Board of Pediatrics for pediatricians), with internal medicine physicians specifically excluded from consideration. The required workload includes seeing 10 patients per 8-hour shift or 12-14 patients per 10-hour shift, with clinic hours from 8 AM to 8 PM Monday through Friday and 1 PM to 5 PM on weekends and holidays. The government will evaluate proposals using a Lowest Price Technically Acceptable (LPTA) process, with technical acceptability determined by meeting Statement of Work requirements, pricing completeness, and past performance criteria for outpatient medical services in rural locations. Following Amendment 0002, the proposal submission deadline has been extended to August 19, 2025, at 12:00 PM CDT.

This procurement is designated as a 100% Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) set-aside under NAICS code 621999 with a small business size standard of $20.5 million. There is no current incumbent contractor for these services, indicating this represents a new contract opportunity. The contract structure includes a base period of six months beginning September 1, 2025, followed by nine option periods of six months each, creating a total potential performance period through August 31, 2030. Services will be performed at the Woodrow Wilson Keeble Memorial Health Care Center in Sisseton, South Dakota, with physicians expected to perform only simple procedures such as lancing boils, shaving skin tags, and draining ingrown toenails, with no on-call responsibilities required. While no on-site housing is available for contracted physicians, hotel accommodations and potential rental housing options exist in the area. The contract is structured as a Firm-Fixed Price, Non-Personal Medical Service agreement administered by the Division of Acquisition Management in Aberdeen, South Dakota.
