The District, through the CFO, plans to implement a retrospective claims process for prior reporting periods and to maximize prospective claims for future expenditure periods. Please note: The District does not intend to award a contract on the basis of this RFI or to otherwise pay for the information herein solicited. An individual's or vendor's participation is wholly voluntary and does not obligate the District Government or the participant in any way. The District will use the information received in this RFI for the procurement planning process, but makes no commitment herein to meet a specific schedule for said planning or procurement. Information required: Provide information regarding specific programs potential for revenue maximization and enhancement. For example, identify programs, educational facilities, target groups that include the homeless, foster care, Medicaid and Medicare recipients, Third Party Liability Coverage, Emergency Assistance for Families, youth services, special education, correctional services, city operated hospitals (DC General and St. Elizabeths Hospital for the chronically mentally ill), public health clinics, Medicare Crossover Claims, potential funding source (Title XVIII, or Title XIX, Title IV-E, Title IV-A, etc.), whether or not claims may be submitted retroactively, prospectively or both. Briefly Describe methodology, strategies and service portfolio. Based on an organization's or individual's experience include recommendations on agency/program enhancements which enabled a given jurisdiction to provide more services with little or no increase in local appropriations. Finally, comments and recommendations are welcomed regarding the future training of District employees in revenue maximization strategies. The information is to be submitted to the OFFADD address above, to arrive at the destination no later than 4:00 p.m. on January 5, 1998.

You may request a copy of the RFI by contacting POC (Peter Lloyd or Paul Wooten) at the above telephone number. No firm date for the release of an RFP has been set at this time; consequently, no telephone calls will be accepted and no discussions will take place prior to its release.
