The Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 22 seeks off-site medical transcription services, with offers due October 23 at 1:00 PM PST. The procurement is an SDVOSB set-aside with an estimated value of $19 million over the base period and four option years.

Place of performance is Phoenix, Tucson, and Albuquerque (amendment 0002, posted October 21, reduced the original seven-facility scope to these three locations). All transcription and verification must be performed entirely within the United States by U.S. citizens. The base period runs November 1, 2026 through October 31, 2027, with four subsequent one-year option periods.

Turnaround time requirements are STAT dictations within 2 hours, History & Physical within 4 hours, operative reports within 6 hours, and all other reports within 24 hours. Billing is measured exclusively in Visible Black Characters (VBC); per-line pricing is prohibited. Contractor personnel requiring VA system access must undergo background investigations (NACI or NACLC), complete privacy and security training, and obtain favorable adjudication from the VA Security and Investigations Center.
