Raymond, Gerald V

Raymond, Gerald V, a sole proprietorship based in Hopkins, Minnesota, provides medical expert services and case reviews for federal vaccine injury compensation programs exclusively as a prime contractor under total small business set-asides. The vendor specializes in delivering detailed medical analysis and expert opinions to support the Health Resources and Services Administration's (HRSA) adjudication of Vaccine Injury Compensation Program (VICP) and Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) claims, operating with no subcontractors identified across its federal footprint.

Customer concentration with HRSA is absolute — 144 of 145 total awards (91% coverage of award count) and $7.8 million of $7.8 million combined potential value flow through HRSA's Vaccine Injury Compensation Program and related initiatives. A single Department of Justice Civil Division award of $19 thousand represents the vendor's only non-HRSA customer. The vendor operates under four primary BPAs issued by HRSA, with Blanket Purchase Agreement HHSH234200851006B carrying 79 task orders ($281 thousand combined potential value) and Blanket Purchase Agreement HHSH250201400059B carrying 41 task orders ($110 thousand combined potential value). Two additional BPAs (75R60219A00097 and 75R60221A00037) account for 34 task orders and $160 thousand in combined potential value. Recent awards include a $24,375 BPA call from HRSA dated April 30, 2026, for vaccine injury case review services (HSB114 C 7172, completion March 29, 2027), a $7,500 BPA call dated March 23, 2026, for VICP medical case review (HSB114 C 7172, completion February 22, 2027), and a $7,500 award from August 7, 2025, for medical expert services under contract HSB114 C 6238 (completion July 6, 2026). Work is performed exclusively at the contractor's Hopkins, Minnesota location. Award activity peaked at ten awards in 2021, declined to seven in 2022, and has remained sparse (one to two awards annually) in 2024, 2025, and 2026. Only two awards with combined potential value of $32 thousand face recompete within the next twenty-four months. The vendor's NAICS footprint is dominated by Offices of Physicians (except Mental Health Specialists) across 158 awards, with primary PSC coding under Support-Professional: Expert Witness (143 awards) and subordinate activity in Support-Management: Contract/Procurement/Acquisition Support (15 awards).
