The Maryland Hospital Association, Incorporated

The Maryland Hospital Association, Incorporated, a tax-exempt nonprofit based in Elkridge, Maryland, operates as a prime recipient of federal grants and a prime contractor on small-dollar federal purchases; the organization holds no subcontract positions and competes exclusively in full-and-open procurements without set-aside designations. The vendor's federal footprint centers on annual membership dues paid by the NIH Clinical Center and a portfolio of federal health-related grants focused on hospital preparedness, patient safety, and maternal health initiatives.

The Maryland Hospital Association's customer concentration is heavily weighted to the Department of Health and Human Services. The top three customer components account for 81% of combined potential value: the NIH Clinical Center (10 awards, $608 thousand combined potential value), the Veterans Health Administration Veterans Integrated Service Network 5 (7 awards, $321 thousand combined potential value), and the NIH Office of the Chief Operating Officer (4 awards, $193 thousand combined potential value). The NIH Clinical Center relationship is particularly stable — the vendor has maintained annual purchase orders for membership dues since at least 2022, with awards continuing through June 2027. A $2.9 million, five-year grant from the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response funded front-line COVID-19 preparedness and response efforts. The Maryland Hospital Association also operates the Maryland Patient Safety Center, which received federal grant sub-awards through Johns Hopkins University to develop maternal health initiatives, including standardized debriefing training across 32 birthing hospitals.

Award volume remains consistent but low: one award per year across 2022–2026, with a combined potential value of $1.4 million across all 43 awards in the source data. Only one award (combined potential value $49 thousand) faces ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, presenting minimal recompete exposure. The vendor's NAICS concentration reflects its organizational identity: 24 awards fall under Business Associations, 4 under Professional Organizations. The top PSC categories are Education/Training—Tuition/Registration/Membership Fees (16 awards) and Medical—Other (5 awards).
