Indigent healthcare solutions will design and develop software exclusively for eddy county's indigent health care program.

This is a sole source contract opportunity from the state of New Mexico for Indigent Healthcare Solutions to design and develop software exclusively for Eddy County's Indigent Health Care Program. The contract will be awarded to Indigent Healthcare Solutions, a sole source provider, to continue providing an electronic health record system and related software and services to support the county's indigent healthcare program. The contract term is for 3 years with 2 optional 1-year extensions, and the total contract value over the 5-year term is estimated not to exceed $27 million, which will be funded through the county's General Fund allocation for indigent healthcare services. The justification for the sole source award is that Indigent Healthcare Solutions' software and services are proprietary and specifically designed to meet the county's unique requirements for indigent healthcare management, and transitioning to a new vendor would cause significant disruption and increased costs.

There are no set-aside designations or restrictions on the types of organizations that can respond, as this is a sole source contract. The incumbent vendor, Indigent Healthcare Solutions, has successfully provided these services to the county for over 10 years. The contract opportunity does not provide any information about existing infrastructure or technology that requires integration.
