Additional Details
The Social Security Administration (SSA), through its Office of Acquisition and Grants, has issued a Request for Information (RFI) seeking input from qualified vendors regarding the provision of Medical Expert Services. This solicitation, identified by procurement number 28321326RI0000023, is specifically focused on three primary service areas: Spanish Medical Expert Witness Services, Medical Expert Witness Services for the Eastern Division, and Medical Expert Consultant Services for Requests for Review.
The overarching purpose of this RFI is to gather information from the marketplace to inform the SSA’s approach to procuring specialized medical expertise. The intended outcomes include ensuring the availability of qualified medical professionals who can serve as expert witnesses—particularly those with Spanish language proficiency—and provide consultant services to support the SSA’s adjudicative and review processes. These services are critical to the SSA’s mission, as they contribute to the accurate and timely evaluation of medical evidence in support of disability determinations and other agency proceedings.
The scope of the anticipated requirement encompasses the provision of expert testimony and consultation in medical matters, with an emphasis on both general and Spanish-language services. Contractors would be expected to deliver objective, evidence-based opinions, participate in hearings as expert witnesses, and conduct thorough reviews of medical records as part of the SSA’s review process. The agency is particularly interested in vendors with demonstrated experience in administrative management and general management consulting services, as reflected by the designated NAICS code 541611.
This opportunity is classified under Product Service Code R424, which pertains to professional and management support services. There are no set-aside restrictions associated with this solicitation, indicating that the opportunity is open to all qualified entities regardless of business size or socioeconomic status.
The contracting activity is managed by the SSA’s Office of Acquisition and Grants, a federal office responsible for the procurement of goods and services in support of the agency’s operations. Interested parties are encouraged to direct inquiries and responses to the primary point of contact, Vanessa Jamison, via email at [email protected].
The RFI was posted on March 6, 2026, and remains active, with responses due by June 24, 2026. Contractors considering this opportunity should review the notice in detail on the official SAM.gov portal (Opportunity ID: 01058f55baee407db768523ebe8283d0) for any updates or additional instructions.
In summary, this RFI represents a significant opportunity for organizations with expertise in medical consulting and expert witness services—particularly those with Spanish language capabilities—to engage with the SSA and potentially shape future procurement strategies. The agency seeks to ensure a robust pool of medical experts to support its critical adjudicative functions, and is soliciting industry feedback to inform its requirements and approach.
