Lewis James M MD

Lewis James M MD is a minority-owned, service-disabled veteran-owned sole proprietorship based in Birmingham, Alabama, that has been registered as a federal contractor since July 2015. The firm specializes in providing independent medical consulting services focused on disability claim evaluations and case file reviews for the federal government. Dr. Lewis operates as a self-certified small disadvantaged business and is classified as a black American-owned, veteran-owned enterprise, positioning the company to compete for set-aside contracting opportunities while also securing awards on an unrestricted basis.

Through federal contract awards, Lewis James M MD has exclusively provided Regional Medical Consultant (RMC) services to the Social Security Administration (SSA), specifically supporting the agency's Office of Disability Determinations and Center for Disability and Program Support. The contractor has received multiple firm fixed-price call orders issued against blanket purchase agreements, with individual task order values ranging from $550 to $242,880 since 2021. These call orders involve detailed medical reviews of disability claim case files, independent evaluations of claimant eligibility, and the provision of objective medical opinions to support the SSA's disability determination processes. Dr. Lewis performs this specialized work with a focus on physical medicine expertise in Region 4 (Atlanta, Georgia) and Region IV, with the primary performance location in Birmingham, Alabama. All contract awards have been issued under the Atlanta Medical Consultants Contract program code with no set-aside designations applied, indicating that the awards were made on a competitive, unrestricted basis despite the company's eligibility for small business preferences.

Lewis James M MD holds a single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the Social Security Administration, originally awarded on April 28, 2021, with a ceiling value of $18.3 million (with records indicating a related BPA valued at $17.5 million) and performance extending through December 31, 2025. This BPA was solicited as a Total Small Business set-aside opportunity and serves as the parent vehicle under which all of the contractor's recent task orders have been issued. Under this blanket purchase agreement, the SSA has issued multiple firm fixed-price call orders for regional medical consultant services, including significant awards such as a $171,000 call order issued in September 2025 (with completion targeted for September 2026), a $158,100 call order issued in July 2024 (completing December 2025), and a $221,168 call order issued in July 2023 (closed out September 2024). The BPA and its associated task orders support the SSA's ongoing requirement for specialized independent medical evaluations in processing disability claims, with Dr. Lewis providing consistent expertise in physical medicine and case file analysis throughout the designated performance period.
