Physician Alpha LLC

Physician Alpha LLC, a for-profit limited liability company based in Downers Grove, Illinois, provides independent medical case reviews of disability claim files to the Social Security Administration as a prime contractor under firm fixed-price BPA call orders. The vendor competes without set-aside designation in an unrestricted environment and operates exclusively within the medical consultation domain, with all eleven recent awards flowing from a single customer agency.

Physician Alpha LLC operates entirely under the SSA's Regional Medical Contractor Services BPA (28321321AC0540030), awarded March 10, 2021, with a $2.1 million ceiling and extended through April 30, 2030. The vendor has issued ten task orders against this parent BPA since 2021, each a call order for a defined number of independent case reviews supporting the SSA's disability determination process in Region 5 (Chicago). Representative recent work includes a $50,440 call order awarded June 8, 2026, for 520 independent medical case reviews through June 30, 2027; a $65,960 call order awarded July 7, 2025, for regional medical consultant services through June 30, 2026; and a $32,010 call order awarded March 18, 2025, for 330 independent case reviews through July 31, 2025. All work is performed in Buffalo Grove, Illinois, with medical consultants conducting firm fixed-price expert reviews of disability claim case files to inform SSA benefits eligibility decisions. The vendor's portfolio shows minimal concentration risk but also minimal diversification — the Social Security Administration accounts for 100% of all awards and combined potential value across the source data.

Award activity has remained flat, averaging roughly two orders per year over the past five years with no growth trajectory. A single award worth approximately $50 thousand reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, representing limited near-term recompete exposure. The vendor's registered SAM.gov profile dates to May 2019, indicating sustained engagement as an independent medical contractor without expansion into adjacent service lines or customer agencies. Only $362 thousand of the $3.4 million combined potential value across all awards has been obligated to date, reflecting the call-order-driven structure of the BPA vehicle and the vendor's role as one of multiple medical consultants on the SSA's standing regional roster rather than as a sole-source or strategic partner.
