FISC Norfolk Detachment Philadelphia proposes to modify existing contract N00140-94-C-CA11 with EMSA Limited Partnership in order to allow for an additional five months of Emergency Room and Primary Care Clinic Services at the Naval Hospital Charleston, SC. These services shall consist of a base period encompassing three (3) months of performance commencing 01 October 1997 plus two, one (1) month option provisions. If all options are exercised, services will end 28 February 1998. The Emergency Room provides eligible beneficiaries with daily convenient access into the healthcare system according to the patient's emergent, urgent or not-urgent needs. The PCC provides eligible beneficiaries with daily, convenient access into the health care system, providing primary care for acute and stable chronic conditions. This extension effort to contract 94-C-CA11 calls for the provision of 174 hours per month of a Project Manager who will oversee operation of the ER/PCC. The ER consists of the following estimated level of effort for the following categories: ER Medical Director-174 hour per month; ER Nurse Manager-174 hours per month; ER Physicians-913 hours per month; ER Physician Assistant/Nurse Practitioner-487 hours per month; ER Registered Nurses-1460 hours per month; plus monthly provisions for ER Auxiliary and Administrative support staff. The PCC consists of the following estimated level of effort for the following categories: PCC Medical Director-174 hours per month; PCC Nurse Manager-174 hours per month; plus monthly provisions for the services of five full-time Physicians, 2 1/2 full-time Physician extenders, five full-time Licensed Practical Nurses along with monthly provisions for the services of Auxiliary and Administrative support staff. This action is required in order to provide continuity of services before a follow-on contract can be placed. This firm is considered the only supplier of these services at this time, as they are the only firm which can timely support the immediate needs of the Government without a costly start-up period. This extension modification to contract 94-C-CA11 is for services which the Government intends to solicit and negotiate with only one source under the authority of FAR 6.302-1. Interested persons may identify their interests and capability to respond to the requirement or submit proposals. THIS NOTICE OF INTENT IS NOT A REQUEST FOR COMPETITIVE PROPOSALS. However, all proposals received within forty-five days after the date of publication of this synopsis will be considered by the Government. A determination by the Government not to open the requirement to competition based upon responses to this notice is solely within the discretion of the Government. The government will not pay for information received. The applicable Standard Industrial Code for this acquisition is 8011. Numbered Note 26 applies. (0205)
