About Care Initiatives

Care Initiatives, doing business as Ravenwood Specialty Care, is a non-profit healthcare provider registered in SAM.gov since 2004 and located in Waterloo, Iowa. The organization specializes in providing nursing home services and reporting analytics primarily to the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), specifically serving the Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 (VISN 23) region covering eight Midwestern and Plains states. As a corporate entity with tax-exempt status, Care Initiatives focuses on delivering community nursing home services and comprehensive expenditure reporting for veteran healthcare facilities.

Through its federal contract awards, Care Initiatives has consistently provided EXPRESS reporting services focused on nursing home expenditure analysis for the VA Veterans Health Administration.

These contracts do not have specific small business set-aside designations, and Care Initiatives has performed as the prime contractor without mentioning significant subcontractors. The reports generate detailed insights into nursing home spending within the VISN 23 region, supporting the VA's oversight and management of veteran healthcare services.

Care Initiatives holds a significant $10,000,000 single-award indefinite delivery contract with the VA VHA VISN 23, awarded in September 2021 and set to run through August 2026. This five-year indefinite delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contract enables the organization to provide community nursing home services for veterans based on availability and veteran/family preferences. Under this contract, Care Initiatives has already received multiple firm fixed price delivery orders for EXPRESS reporting on nursing home expenditures, with task orders focusing on quarterly and annual spending analyses across fiscal years 2021 through 2025.
