Maurice James Ophthalmology, P.A

Maurice James Ophthalmology, P.A., a minority-owned, Black American-owned small disadvantaged business based in Jackson, Mississippi, provides regional medical consultant services and disability claim case reviews to the Social Security Administration as a prime contractor under a single-award blanket purchase agreement. The firm operates exclusively under full-and-open procurement (no set-aside designations on individual task orders), though the underlying BPA solicitation was set aside for total small business.

Maurice James Ophthalmology operates as a 100% prime contractor with zero subcontract activity across its recent federal award footprint. The vendor's entire customer base is the Social Security Administration, which accounts for all 29 awards and the full $3.7 million in combined potential value. Work centers on medical consultant reviews of disability claim case files for the SSA's Disability Adjudication program, including orientation case reviews, independent medical file reviews, on-site examinations, and specialized ophthalmology evaluations. Place of performance spans Dallas, Texas and Jackson, Mississippi regional offices and hearing offices.

The vendor sits on two active SSA BPAs. The primary vehicle is Blanket Purchase Agreement 28321321AC0640015, a single-award BPA with a $2,656,628 ceiling running through June 30, 2028, from which 13 task orders (combined potential value $596 thousand) have been issued. Representative work includes an $84,375 call for independent case reviews in the Southwest Region awarded July 3, 2025; a $74,256 call for 800 independent case reviews awarded June 20, 2024; a $46,875 call for Region 6 case reviews awarded February 10, 2026; and a $46,410 call for independent case reviews awarded February 3, 2025. A second BPA (SS06164C030) has generated 14 task orders carrying $430 thousand in combined potential value, with smaller individual calls ranging from $1,042 to $88,452. Recent activity has declined — three awards per year in 2022–2024 declining to two in 2025 and one in 2026 — suggesting contract maturity or reduced SSA utilization.

Maurice James Ophthalmology's work is classified under NAICS 621111 (Offices of Physicians except Mental Health Specialists) and PSC Medical codes, reflecting its core capability as a medical consultation and case-review services provider. The firm has held an established relationship with SSA since at least 2016 and has served as a renewal contractor for the regional medical consultants program continuously through the current BPA period.
