Sleep Apnea Testing Solution

Denver Health and Hospital Authority (DHHA) is seeking a comprehensive Sleep Apnea Testing Solution for in-home sleep studies, with the goal of acquiring a Type III sleep study device capable of meeting CMS 2007 AASM requirements and providing robust reporting capabilities. The procurement is focused on a system that can handle approximately 4,000 annual in-home sleep studies, with specific requirements for diagnostic interpretation, potential EPIC integration, and compliance with Medicare standards. The RFP (#1182) was issued on April 14, 2025, with proposal submissions due by 3 PM on May 14, 2025, and an anticipated project timeline including vendor presentations on June 2, 2025, and potential contract award on June 9, 2025. Evaluation criteria will be weighted across five key categories: General Information/Qualifications (10%), Features & Functionality (30%), Technology & Architecture (20%), Costs (20%), and Implementation & Support (20%). The selected solution must include FDA-approved diagnostic devices for sleep testing, with vendors required to submit comprehensive documentation including W-9 forms, business category self-certification, and detailed cost breakdowns.

The procurement emphasizes diversity and inclusion, with a Voluntary Business Category Self-Certification form allowing vendors to self-identify across multiple business categories including small business, minority-owned, veteran-owned, and other diverse business classifications. Denver Health encourages participation from businesses of various sizes, ranging from 1-25 employees to over 1,000 employees, with particular interest in vendors demonstrating social enterprise characteristics or living wage commitments. The contract includes extensive cybersecurity requirements, with vendors required to complete detailed risk assessment questionnaires covering information security policies, access controls, and compliance with international security standards. While specific contract value is not explicitly stated, the documentation suggests a potential five-year contract with comprehensive pricing for devices, hardware, software, and patient-related disposables. Vendors must also demonstrate robust security protocols, with particular attention to data protection, network segmentation, and compliance with healthcare information security standards.
