Medicare Integrity Program
The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (also known as the Kassebaum-Kennedy legislation) includes a provision establishing the "Medicare Integrity Program." That provision gives the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) specific contracting authority, consistent with Federal Acquisition Regulations, to enter into contracts with entities to promote the integrity of the Medicare program. Pursuant to that MIP authority, CMS maintains the following MIP contracts: Twelve Indefinite Delivery-Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ) contracts for the Program Safeguard Contractor (PSC) effort currently exist. Information on the PSCs and points of contact is available in subsequent pages to this site. In addition, CMS awarded the Coordination of Benefits (COB) contract to GHI Medicare in November 1999, as well as eight (8) IDIQ contracts for the Medicare Managed Care (MMC) Program Integrity Contractors effort.
When additional MIP procurements become available to the general public, we will post them on the Federal Business Opportunities website at WWW.FEDBIZOPPS.GOV. In addition, offerors may sign up at that website to receive automatic email announcements of all CMS procurements when they are released. Any questions may be referred to Leisa Bodway, Contracting Officer, at 410-786-1278.
