University Of Minnesota Physicians

University Of Minnesota Physicians, doing business as Umphysicians, operates as a prime contractor (99% of recent awards) providing specialized physician services and clinical support to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a non-profit, multi-specialty academic medical practice headquartered in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The organization competes exclusively in full-and-open federal procurement without set-aside designations across its entire prime footprint.

Umphysicians delivers surgical, medical, and laboratory clinical services to the Veterans Health Administration, with capability spanning neurosurgery on-call coverage, cardiovascular and thoracic surgery, colon and rectal surgery, surgical oncology, orthopedic sports medicine, dermatology, dermatopathology, medical electrophysiology, and STAT referral laboratory testing. Representative recent prime awards include a $137,328.14 delivery order from Veterans Integrated Service Network 23 (VISN 23) for neurosurgery call coverage services through July 2027; a $354,031.20 indefinite delivery contract for affiliate surgical oncologist services awarded October 2025 through June 2030, against which two delivery orders totaling $117,009.40 have been issued; a $2 million five-year single-award indefinite delivery contract for STAT referral laboratory testing awarded March 2025, supporting rapid diagnostic services through February 2030; and an $18.7 million cardiovascular and thoracic surgery indefinite delivery contract awarded September 2023 through August 2028. The organization has maintained active federal contractor status since February 2008 and holds a demonstrated track record with VISN 23 spanning surgical specialties, laboratory services, and research support across the upper Midwest veteran population.

Customer concentration is extreme and single-customer-dependent. VISN 23 represents 260 of 317 total awards (82% of the portfolio) and $193.7 million of the $203.6 million combined potential value across all awards (95% concentration by dollars). The next four customers — the Defense Health Agency ($136 thousand), the Bureau of Prisons Federal Correctional Institution Waseca ($69 thousand), the Indian Health Service ($26 thousand), and VISN 4 ($23 thousand) — account for less than one percent of combined potential value in aggregate. This concentration reflects Umphysicians' positioning as a specialized clinical services provider integrated into VISN 23's healthcare delivery infrastructure across Minnesota and the upper Midwest.

Umphysicians holds five named indefinite delivery vehicles with VISN 23, with delivery orders tracked under IDIQ 36C26319D0031 (10 task orders, $1.3 million combined value), IDIQ 36C26321D0011 (7 task orders, $2.8 million), IDIQ 36C26321D0051 (6 task orders, $4.6 million), IDIQ VA26314D0127 (6 task orders, $1.6 million), and IDIQ VA263P0410 (6 task orders, $268 thousand). All vehicles are single-award, firm fixed-price structures issued without set-aside designation. Recent activity has been flat, averaging 6 to 10 awards annually over the past five years (2022–2026). Within the next twenty-four months, eight awards with combined potential value of $20.3 million reach ultimate completion, creating recompete exposure across neurosurgery on-call, laboratory testing, and surgical oncology service lines.

In its minimal subcontractor role, Umphysicians provides student physician services to Education & Training Resources LLC at the Hubert H. Humphrey Job Corps Center, with three sub-awards from March 2024 through March 2026 delivering 12 hours per week of physician instruction services at $220 per hour. This subcontract activity represents less than 1% of the vendor's portfolio and sits outside the VA relationship.

Umphysicians' capability concentration by NAICS skews toward Offices of Physicians (238 awards) and Medical Laboratories (28 awards); by PSC, surgical specialties dominate, with Medical-Surgery (70 awards), Orthopedic Surgery Services (39 awards), Medical-Radiology (31 awards), Cardiology (21 awards), and Medical-Urology (18 awards) leading the service mix. The vendor's federal footprint is almost entirely co-located with VISN 23's Minneapolis facility and surrounding regional network, making it functionally a single-customer incumbent clinical services provider rather than a diversified federal contractor.
