About this opportunity

The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Network Contracting Office 20 is conducting market research to identify potential contractors for Clinical Documentation Improvement and Coding Training across the Western States Network Consortium (WSNC), which encompasses Veterans Integrated Service Networks (VISNs) 17, 19, 20, 21, and 22. The training services will cover multiple VA medical facilities and clinics across a geographic region including states like Texas, Colorado, Washington, California, and territories such as Hawaii and Guam. Interested vendors must submit a capabilities statement by February 20, 2025, at 9:00 AM PST to robin.wilson3@va.gov, which must include their business information, SAM Unique Identifier Number, and demonstrate ability to perform the required services. Vendors must specify which locations they can service and affirm their capability to meet the attached Requirements Description. The primary evaluation criteria will focus on vendors' geographic coverage, training expertise, and ability to provide comprehensive online and face-to-face training for clinical providers, documentation specialists, and coding staff.

The pre-solicitation notice indicates no specific set-aside, though there is particular interest in identifying qualified Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (SDVOSB) or Veteran-Owned Small Businesses (VOSB). The contract is structured with a base year from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026, and four potential option years extending through June 30, 2030. While no specific award value is mentioned, the comprehensive training requirements include unlimited online curriculum access, ICD-10-CM/PCS fundamentals, documentation clarification procedures, MS-DRG assignment education, and query process training. The training program must provide continuing education units, specialty education resources, coding rule pocket guides, and monthly/quarterly performance monitoring reports. This sources-sought notice is explicitly a market research tool, and the government has not committed to issuing a formal solicitation, reserving the right to determine the most appropriate acquisition strategy based on vendor responses.
