Third Party Billing Services for Students with Disabilities

Montgomery County Public Schools (MCPS) is seeking proposals for a third-party billing services contract focused on Medicaid-eligible students with disabilities. The procurement targets vendors capable of developing and supporting comprehensive billing services for the Department of Special Education Services and the Division of Business, Fiscal, and Information Systems. The solicitation requires vendors to demonstrate expertise in navigating complex Medicaid billing processes specific to special education student services. This contract opportunity, identified by the State Local Contract Opportunity ID 67e7f7033b2458e4ac03821e, was posted on March 26, 2025, with proposal submissions due by April 4, 2025. Potential vendors must carefully prepare comprehensive proposals that outline their technical capabilities, billing methodologies, compliance strategies, and approach to managing Medicaid-related documentation for students with disabilities.

While specific set-aside designations are not explicitly detailed in the provided documentation, vendors should anticipate potential preference for local or disadvantaged business enterprises. The contract appears to be structured for professional service providers with specialized knowledge in educational Medicaid billing and special education administrative systems. Vendors will likely need to demonstrate previous experience with similar governmental billing platforms and show robust technological infrastructure capable of integrating with existing MCPS systems. The scope suggests a potentially significant contract value, though precise budget ranges are not specified in the current solicitation. Interested vendors should be prepared to provide detailed documentation of their qualifications, technological capabilities, and past performance in similar complex billing environments serving educational institutions and special needs populations.
