Carilion Clinic

Carilion Clinic is a non-profit healthcare organization serving Western Virginia, with its subsidiary Carilion Medical Center providing various medical services to the federal government through contracts and grants. Registered with the federal government since 2004, Carilion Clinic operates as a tax-exempt corporate entity classified as both a hospital and non-profit organization. The organization primarily delivers healthcare services, including operating community-based outpatient clinics, providing ambulance services, and conducting medical research. Carilion Clinic's federal contracting and grant activities demonstrate its commitment to expanding access to quality healthcare, particularly for veterans and rural populations, while also contributing to public health initiatives and medical research.

Through prime federal contract awards, Carilion Medical Center has primarily provided community-based outpatient clinic (CBOC) services to veterans across multiple locations in Virginia. These firm-fixed price delivery order contracts, awarded by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) Veterans Health Administration, involve operating outpatient clinics to deliver primary care, mental health care, laboratory services, radiology, and other healthcare services directly to local veteran communities. Carilion has received several multi-year contracts valued over $1 million annually to operate these VA clinics, with some extending through 2032. The organization has also received smaller purchase order contracts for standby ambulance services from the VA. These contracts aim to increase access to VA healthcare for veterans residing in rural areas of southwest Virginia. No set-aside designations were indicated for these contract awards.

Carilion Medical Center has been a prime recipient of various federal grants supporting public health initiatives and medical research. A notable $712,764 cooperative agreement from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration aimed to increase climate resilience through strategies like environmental campaigns on heat management in Roanoke, Virginia. The Department of Agriculture Rural Utilities Service awarded a $335,000 project grant to support essential health care services in rural areas. Grants from the Department of Health and Human Services funded initiatives such as HIV/AIDS care, rural health clinic vaccine confidence programs, and expanding telemedicine infrastructure. Carilion frequently partners with Virginia universities and state agencies as a sub-awardee on public health research grants, including studies on hepatitis C treatment engagement, telepsychiatry effectiveness, and management of type 2 diabetes in rural patients. Other grant-funded projects involved overdose surveillance, cancer prevention, and maternal/child health services.

Carilion Medical Center holds an active single-award indefinite delivery contract from the VA's Veterans Integrated Service Network 6 to provide community-based outpatient clinic services through September 2024. This IDV, valued at over $14 million, has received three firm-fixed price task orders to date, totaling $4.5 million, for operating VA clinics and delivering healthcare services in Salem, Roanoke, and Tazewell, Virginia from 2021 through 2032. The contract enables Carilion to provide a comprehensive range of outpatient medical services to veterans, including primary care, mental health services, laboratory work, and radiology. This IDV demonstrates the VA's ongoing commitment to partnering with Carilion to ensure accessible, high-quality healthcare for veterans in southwest Virginia's rural communities.
