About the company
Western-Star Hospital Authority Inc., doing business as Metro Health, is a minority-owned, self-certified small disadvantaged business based in Atlanta, Georgia, that provides emergency and non-emergency ambulance services to the Department of Veterans Affairs as a prime contractor exclusively. Metro Health operates as a for-profit corporate entity competing in full-and-open federal procurements without set-aside designation; across its portfolio of 31 prime awards over the past five years, the company has generated $74 million in combined potential value and holds a 100% prime posture with no subcontract activity.
Metro Health's customer concentration is entirely within the Veterans Health Administration's regional networks. Five VISN regions account for 94% of awards by count and 98% by potential value: VISN 6 dominates by transaction volume with 11 awards valued at $19.7 million, while VISN 4 anchors the potential-value ranking with 4 awards totaling $34.2 million. VISN 10 contributes 10 awards worth $8.1 million, and VISNs 7 and 5 provide smaller portfolios. The company also holds a single Total Small Business set-aside contract worth $2.75 million from the Army Contracting Command's Northeast Region for ambulance services at Joint Base McGuire Dix Lakehurst, awarded September 2022 through September 2027. Outside these customer categories, Metro Health works exclusively for Veterans Health Administration facilities across multiple states.
Metro Health's service delivery centers on single-award indefinite-delivery contracts with individual VISNs, issuing task orders for specific locations. The company holds active IDDs with VISN 6 (Salem Ambulance Services, $5.9 million ceiling through March 2027) and VISN 6 (Hampton non-emergency services, $2.6 million ceiling, completed May 2024). Task order activity demonstrates sustained engagement: a $1.97 million delivery order with VISN 6 for Salem ambulance services covered September 2025 through September 2026; a $473,641 non-emergency delivery order with VISN 6 for Hampton services ran through December 2024; and a $1.95 million Cleveland ambulance order served VISN 10 through March 2024. Across these contracts, Metro Health furnishes Basic Life Support and Advanced Life Support personnel, 24/7 emergency response capability, and non-emergency patient transport between VA medical facilities and veterans' residences. All contracts are firm fixed-price; none carry set-asides.
Award activity has contracted in recent years—four awards in 2022, five in 2023, three in 2024, one in 2025, and one in 2026—with only $3.7 million in combined potential value reaching ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, creating modest recompete exposure. The company's PSC footprint is predominantly ambulance services under the transportation/travel/relocation category (24 of 31 awards), with secondary coding in general transportation and medical services. Metro Health's entire federal footprint rests on VA ambulance operations across dispersed locations; the Fort Dix contract represents its only Department of Defense exposure and sole non-VA prime award in the source portfolio.
