Western Healthcare LLC

Western Healthcare LLC is a for-profit limited liability company that provides healthcare staffing services to the federal government, primarily the Department of Health and Human Services Indian Health Service (HHS IHS). The company specializes in supplying temporary physician and other healthcare provider staffing for IHS facilities, with a focus on emergency department, family practice, internal medicine, and hospitalist coverage. Western Healthcare LLC has been registered to receive federal contract awards since July 27, 2011, and maintains an active registration in the System for Award Management (SAM.gov).

The majority of Western Healthcare LLC's federal contract awards are for physician staffing services at IHS facilities in Oklahoma, particularly in Lawton. These contracts typically take the form of Blanket Purchase Agreement (BPA) calls or delivery orders against the company's Professional and Allied Healthcare Staffing Services Schedule (FSS-621-I) with the General Services Administration (GSA). The company has provided emergency department physician services, family practice physician services, and hospitalist coverage on a temporary basis to support IHS healthcare delivery programs. Contract values have ranged from approximately $70,000 to over $1 million, with performance periods typically lasting several months to a few years. None of the reviewed contracts utilized set-aside provisions, and Western Healthcare LLC has consistently served as the prime contractor without identified subcontractors.

Western Healthcare LLC holds multiple Indefinite Delivery Vehicle (IDV) contracts with the Indian Health Service. These include Blanket Purchase Agreements for emergency department physician services, hospitalist physician services, and family practice physician services. The BPAs have ceiling values ranging from $500,000 to $5 million and performance periods extending through July 31, 2026. These IDVs are established under the GSA Professional and Allied Healthcare Staffing Services Schedule (FSS-621-I) and allow the IHS to quickly procure temporary physician staffing for its facilities on an as-needed basis. The BPAs cover wide geographic areas, enabling the IHS to maintain flexible access to care across its network of hospitals and clinics serving American Indian and Alaska Native populations. Task orders issued against these BPAs have primarily focused on providing emergency department and family practice physician coverage in Oklahoma, particularly at the IHS facility in Lawton.
