SSM Health Care Group

SSM Health Care Group, a Missouri-based non-profit healthcare provider, operates as a prime contractor delivering interventional radiology services to the Department of Veterans Affairs and as a sub-recipient of federal grants in HIV primary care and pediatric infectious disease services through the Health Resources and Services Administration. The vendor holds a single-award indefinite-delivery contract with VA Veterans Integrated Service Network 15 (VISN 15) for interventional radiology at the VA St. Louis Health Care System, valued at $13.7 million through January 31, 2032, and receives annual Ryan White Program sub-awards from Washington University for HIV early intervention and perinatal care services in the St. Louis region.

SSM Health Care Group's federal footprint is concentrated with two customer agencies across six distinct awards (55% prime, 45% sub-recipient split). The VA VISN 15 accounts for all six prime contract awards under the single-award IDC, with combined potential value of $18.1 million. Five delivery orders have been executed under that IDC since February 2022 on an annual cycle, each fixed-price with economic price adjustment: the most recent order (February 1, 2026, completing January 31, 2027) carries a ceiling of $1 million; the prior year order (February 1, 2025, completing January 31, 2026) was valued at $775 thousand; Option Year 2 (February 1, 2024, completing January 31, 2025) was $868 thousand; Option Year 1 (February 1, 2023) was $912 thousand; and the initial task order (February 1, 2022) was $807 thousand. The vendor received the IDC following a novation from Saint Louis University, effective February 1, 2025. On the grant side, the Health Resources and Services Administration funds five sub-awards, all received through Washington University as prime grantee under Ryan White Part C (HIV Early Intervention Services, HRSA grant H76HA07849) and Part D (perinatal and pediatric HIV care, HRSA grant H12HA24842) programs. The most recent Ryan White Part C sub-award (April 30, 2026) and Part D sub-award (December 31, 2025) support HIV primary care and ambulatory care for perinatally exposed infants and youth and adult women with HIV across the St. Louis market. An earlier Ryan White Part C sub-award (April 8, 2025) and Part D sub-award (February 19, 2025) cover the same scope. The vendor also holds a sub-award under a Great Plains Regional Hemophilia Network grant from the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston (June 3, 2022).

Activity shows growth in 2025 and 2026 after a sparse 2023 and 2024. One award (the current-year VA delivery order) carries $1 million in potential value and reaches completion within the next twenty-four months, representing recompete exposure on the single-award IDC that serves as the vendor's primary contract vehicle. Service Contract Inventory captures $848 thousand in SCI-reportable invoiced revenue in FY2024 under prime records, reflecting 1.5 FTEs on federal service contracts above the $150,000 reporting threshold; median government-paid hourly rates ran $281.68/hr, with rates spanning $273.25/hr to $290.11/hr across the percentile range. SCI-reported sub engagement on prime contracts is zero, indicating the vendor delivers interventional radiology capacity directly rather than through subcontractors. SSM Health Care Group is a subsidiary of SSM Health Care ST. Louis, the parent non-profit organization.
