Kansas University Physicians, Inc.

Kansas University Physicians, Inc., a non-profit subsidiary of the University of Kansas Hospital Authority, provides specialized physician services — otolaryngology, urology, cardiology, and ophthalmology — to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor across single-award indefinite delivery contracts, with no subcontractor engagement and no set-aside posture.

The vendor operates as a 100% prime contractor (191 awards, zero subs) across a narrow, stable federal customer base. Veterans Affairs accounts for 76 of the 191 awards and $58.9 million of the combined $125 million potential value across all activity — specifically, VISN 15 (Veterans Integrated Service Network 15) dominates with 53 awards valued at $55.4 million. The remaining 115 awards span the Department of Justice (US Attorney's Offices, Bureau of Prisons), the Army Medical Command, and miscellaneous federal health and justice agencies, but these represent only $55 thousand to $34 thousand in individual magnitude and account for roughly 27% of total activity. The top two customers (VA overall and VISN 15 specifically) represent 47% of combined potential value; the concentration is pronounced and the tail is long.

Capability framing centers on NAICS 621111 (Offices of Physicians except Mental Health Specialists), with 102 of 191 awards falling into that category. PSC distribution shows otolaryngology (22 awards), cardiology (17 awards), ophthalmology (42 awards), and reference laboratory testing (13 awards) as the primary service lines. Recent representative work includes a $9.8 million single-award IDC for otolaryngology physician services at the Kansas City VA Medical Center (VISN 15, awarded September 2025, extending through September 2027); a $9.5 million single-award IDC for urology physician services at Kansas City VAMC (VISN 15, awarded September 2025, through August 2027); a $1 million delivery order under the otolaryngology IDC for Option Year 1 enterprise physician staffing (awarded September 2026); and a $9 thousand expert-witness services purchase order from the US Attorney's Offices (awarded July 2023).

Activity has been sparse in recent years — four awards in 2025, one in 2026 — representing a sharp decline from the 191-award baseline that spans back to 1997. The portfolio shows only one award facing ultimate completion inside the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $1 million), indicating minimal recompete pressure in the near term. The vendor holds five named parent vehicles, all VA-issued IDCs: the two most active are Indefinite Delivery Contract V255PV150661 (11 task orders, $27.6 million) and Basic Ordering Agreement VA255BO0225 (11 task orders, $7.1 million). Place of performance is concentrated in Kansas City, Kansas and Kansas City, Missouri, with some work at the Wichita VA Medical Center.

Service Contract Inventory data covering FY2022–FY2025 shows $2.7 million in invoiced revenue across 17 SCI-reportable records (all prime), with $1.3 million in FY2023 and FY2024 at roughly 2.0 and 1.9 FTEs respectively; FY2022 and FY2025 carry zero reported FTE and invoiced activity. Government-paid rates on SCI-reportable contracts run a median of $335/hr, with a range from $313/hr (10th percentile) to $340/hr (90th percentile) — within the federal physician-services market but not at the premium end. The vendor engages zero subcontractors across its prime contracts, delivering all services with its own clinical staffing. The corporate structure as a University of Kansas Medical Center–affiliated non-profit differentiates it as an academic medical extension to the VA's regional physician services network rather than a commercial staffing vendor; that affiliation anchors the relationship with VISN 15 but has not translated to broader federal health or defense customer diversification.
