Solicitation 75H70725Q00091_Medical Coding Services for Zuni Comprehensive Community Health Center

The Indian Health Service Albuquerque Area Office has issued Solicitation 75H70725Q00091 for Remote Medical Coding Non-Personal Healthcare Services for the Zuni Comprehensive Community Health Center in New Mexico. The procurement seeks certified medical coders to provide comprehensive coding services across multiple clinical settings including primary care, urgent care, emergency room, dental, optometry, physical/occupational therapy, podiatry, observation, and radiology, with an estimated monthly volume of over 37,900 visits. Offerors must submit five key documents including Technical Qualifications, Past Performance, Price Quote, Indian Economic Enterprise Representation form, and signed SF1449 with Amendment 0001. The evaluation criteria prioritize technical qualifications and past performance over price, requiring contractors to have certified medical coders with expertise in Medicaid/Medicare and private insurance coding guidelines. Questions were due by July 25, 2025, at 3:00 PM Mountain Time, and all proposals must be submitted by August 8, 2025, at 3:00 PM Mountain Time to shannon.eldridge-shorty@ihs.gov.

This procurement is set-aside primarily for Indian Small Business Economic Enterprise (ISBEE) under the Buy Indian Act, with secondary consideration for other small business concerns if reasonably priced ISBEE quotes are not received. The solicitation operates under NAICS code 541219 with a size standard of $25.0 million, and the government anticipates needing four medical coders to start the contract. The contract structure includes a Firm-Fixed-Price purchase order with a one-year base period and four one-year option periods, with payment based on total completed visits rather than hourly rates. Services will be performed remotely using contractor-provided Windows-based equipment and RPMS/EHR systems, with no offshore work permitted and no anticipated onsite requirements. The place of performance is Zuni, New Mexico, where federal employees currently serve as coders at the facility, suggesting this may involve replacing or supplementing existing government personnel.
