CMS REQUIREMENTS: CQ Healthbeat provides the MRG and the Office of Legislation (OL) with comprehensive understanding of congressional developments as they occur on the Hill and gives in-depth insights of pending healthcare legislation and implications for the Medicare, Medicaid, CHIP and ACA programs. It's also included in the CMS' Daily News Clips. NAICS CODES: The North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) is 51110 (Newspaper Publishers) and the size standard is 500 employees. INTERESTED PARTIES: All responsible sources may submit a capability statement, proposal, or quotation which shall be considered by the agency. In order to qualify as a potential contractor for this procurement, the organization must provide valid, reliable and technical literature describing their capability to effectively satisfy this requirement, as well as terms and conditions and a complete price quote within (5) days of this notice, to the following electronic email address: phillip.harrell@cms.hhs.gov. DISCLAIMER: This notice is not a Request for Proposals or a Solicitation, nor does it restrict the Government as to the ultimate acquisition approach. This notice is not a commitment from the Government. The Government will not reimburse any bid or proposal costs as a result of this notice. No solicitation exists and requests for a copy of the solicitation will be disregarded.
