- Description
- Veterans Health Affairs, Network Contracting Office 4, is planning to issue a solicitation to procure a 5-year indefinite-delivery indefinite-quantity contract for the provision of Healthcare for Homeless Veterans services for the Corporal Michael J. Crescenz VA Medical Center (CMCVAMC) in the city of Philadelphia, PA. The solicitation will provide for full and open competition. General scope: CMCVAMC is seeking contractor support to provide emergency residential placement and treatment services through the Health Care for Homeless Veterans (HCHV) program for up to 45 eligible homeless Veterans at any given time who need immediate placement in a safe environment with onsite treatment services. Many of these veterans have co-morbid conditions that include serious mental illnesses, substance abuse disorders, and other serious medical conditions. The goal of the HCHV Contracted Residential Services (CRS) is to rapidly stabilize Veterans' medical, mental health, substance abuse and other psychosocial problems in order to place Veterans in other appropriate transitional or permanent housing within 30 to 90 days, but no more than 180 days. Contractor will provide rapid placement of VA-referred Veterans in a safe, residential treatment setting while addressing Veterans' complex needs through on-site treatment case management services. There are two distinct levels of HCHV Contracted Residential Services that will be provided for under the proposed contract- 1.Low Demand Safe Haven (LDSH): LDSH are 24-hour staffed transitional residences with private or semi-private accommodations that target the population of hard-to-reach, chronically homeless Veterans with mental illness and/or substance use problems who require a low-demand environment. The low-demand or non-intrusive environment is designed to re-establish trust and motivate the homeless Veteran to seek needed treatment services and transitional and permanent housing options. Lengths of stay in LDSH programs are typically 180 days with the option to extend based on clinical need. Up to 20 beds with a capacity to flex up to 4 female beds is the requirement for LDSH. 2.Contracted Emergency Residential Services (CERS): CERS programs target and prioritize homeless Veterans transitioning from literal street homelessness, Veterans being discharged from institutions, including those in need of medical respite, and Veterans who recently became homeless and require safe and stable living arrangements while they seek permanent housing. CERS Programs, either directly or through linkage with community and other VA services, provide low demand time-limited services such as supporting mental health stabilization, Substance Use Disorder (SUD) treatment services, enhancement of independent living skills, vocational training, and employment services. Emphasis is placed on referral and placement in permanent housing or longer term residential programs utilizing VA and/or community resources. Lengths of stay in CERS typically range from 30 to 90 days with the option to extend based on clinical need. Up to 25 beds with a capacity to flex up to 4 female beds is the requirement for CERS. General qualifications: the Contracted Residential Services facility must be licensed to operate and be located within Philadelphia, PA. The facility must have experienced personnel onsite to provide services. The facility must be capable of passing an initial inspection conducted by select personnel from the CMCVAMC. The offeror will be required to submit a small business subcontracting plan that is acceptable to the Government.
