Ellis Mona

Ellis Mona, a woman-owned small business sole proprietorship based in Silver Spring, Maryland, provides specialized medical case review and evaluation services to the Department of Health and Human Services' Health Resources and Services Administration as a prime contractor exclusively under total small business set-asides. The company operates as a single-agency vendor with a narrowly focused capability portfolio anchored to vaccine injury compensation adjudication.

Ellis Mona's entire federal footprint — all 56 awards across a four-year recent period — flows through HRSA's Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) and Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP). The company holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with HRSA established May 31, 2022, with a $7.5 million ceiling through May 30, 2027, under which individual task orders are issued at typical values of $24,500 per call. Ellis Mona executes the work by examining medical records, assessing clinical evidence, and providing expert professional determination of claimant eligibility for no-fault federal vaccine injury compensation. All work is performed at the company's Silver Spring location with no subcontractor engagement. Representative recent awards include a $24,500 BPA call on September 2, 2026, a $24,500 call on March 23, 2026, and a $24,500 call on January 12, 2026, each designated total small business set-aside. The company also held prior single-award BPA vehicles with HRSA carrying $24,500 and smaller task-order values dating to at least 2019.

Customer concentration is absolute: the Department of Health and Human Services Health Resources and Services Administration accounts for 100% of awards and 100% of combined potential value across the 56-award portfolio. Combined potential value stands at $8.9 million, with $857 thousand obligated to date (10% utilization). Activity has been episodic — seven awards in 2022, one in 2023, four in 2024, three in 2025, and three in 2026 — and is characterized by discrete, frequent small-dollar task orders under three stacked BPA vehicles: BPA HHSH250201500021B (26 task orders, $270 thousand combined potential value), BPA 75R60222A00022 (15 task orders, $340 thousand combined potential value), and BPA 75R60219A00069 (12 task orders, $248 thousand combined potential value). Only three awards carry ultimate completion dates within the next twenty-four months, with combined potential value of $74 thousand, representing minimal near-term recompete exposure. The company's narrow specialization — all 56 awards are categorized under PSC code Support–Professional: Expert Witness — leaves it vulnerable to any shift in HRSA's medical case review contracting strategy or consolidation of review functions.
