The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society

The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society, doing business as Good Samaritan Society - Sioux Falls Village, is a non-profit nursing home operator providing skilled nursing and community-based long-term care services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor, with no subcontractor or grant activity in the federal portfolio. The organization operates without socioeconomic set-asides and competes on a full-and-open basis as a subsidiary of Sanford Health, a large non-profit healthcare system headquartered in Fargo, North Dakota. Good Samaritan Society - Sioux Falls Village is classified under NAICS 623110 (Nursing Care Facilities — Skilled Nursing Facilities) and PSC code J304 (Nursing Home, Long-Term & Adult Day Care Services).

Customer concentration with the VA is near-total. The top customer, Department of Veterans Affairs Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 (VISN 23), accounts for 30 awards and $15.8 million of the vendor's $18 million combined potential value across all awards. VISN 8 contributes 12 awards and $1.7 million. The vendor has served 73 total awards across three VA entities since 2000, but recent activity is sparse — one award in 2021, 2022, and 2024, and one in 2025 — reflecting a flat or declining trajectory over the past five years. The vendor holds a single-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with VISN 23 (V438P1996, ceiling $7.17 million, dated March 1, 2022, expiring February 28, 2026) that serves as the parent vehicle for most delivery orders. Four additional Basic Ordering Agreements with the VA carry between 10 and 16 task orders each. One award (combined potential value $768 thousand) faces completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure.

The vendor's most recent work includes a $319 thousand delivery order from VISN 23 dated October 1, 2025, for nursing home placements and community healthcare services through September 30, 2026, under the VA EXPRESS REPORT contracting vehicle; a $1.53 million nursing home services order from October 1, 2024, running through September 30, 2025; and a $768 thousand community nursing home order from October 1, 2023, extending through September 30, 2027. Service Contract Inventory data show $768 thousand in SCI-reportable invoiced revenue in FY2024 across 13 full-time-equivalent personnel on a single prime contract, with median government-paid rates of $28.32 per hour, reflecting direct nursing and facility-operation labor. SCI captures only a partial slice of the vendor's federal activity and does not include goods, products, or non-federal enterprise revenue. Good Samaritan Society - Sioux Falls Village operates exclusively as a prime contractor (100% of awards); it engages no subcontractors on federal work and does not function as a sub to other federal primes in the award data.
