The Phoenix Area Indian Health Service is seeking hospitalist physician coverage for Phoenix Indian Medical Center and participating Phoenix Area facilities.
- **Government buyer:** Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), Indian Health Service (IHS), Phoenix Area Indian Health Service; Phoenix Indian Medical Center (PIMC) is the principal Ordering Activity. The solicitation identifies Jeremy Steel.
- **Service requested:** Nonpersonal inpatient hospitalist physician services, including patient evaluations, admissions, inpatient management and rounds, consultations, transfer coordination, discharge planning, urgent response during scheduled shifts, and clinical documentation.

These are planning and evaluation estimates, not guaranteed hours. The PWS separately cites approximately 4,152 estimated annual contractor hours for WRSU, differing from the pricing schedule’s 2,080-hour estimate.
- **Important requirements:** Quoters must provide a fully burdened hourly rate for each Ordering Activity and a technical approach with three representative hospitalist physician CVs. Physicians must meet applicable residency, licensure, certification, credentialing, privileging, and facility approval requirements. Medical liability coverage must be at least $1,000,000 per specialty per occurrence.

Routine travel and lodging are not separately reimbursed.
- **Eligibility and arrangement:** The opportunity is set aside for eligible Indian Small Business Economic Enterprises (ISBEEs) under the Buy Indian Act. The Government anticipates one or more BPAs with an approximately five-year ordering period; individual Calls establish their own performance periods.
- **OEMs and named vendors:** No product OEMs or commercial vendors are named. This is a physician-services procurement, not a product purchase.
