    Description

    The Defense Health Agency (DHA) intends to modify an existing contract for Medical "Q"-Coded Services (MQS) to extend its ordering period from April 1, 2025, to October 31, 2025. This extension is crucial for maintaining non-personal medical support services at Department of Defense (DoD) Military Treatment Facilities across the United States and its territories, ensuring the availability of both credentialed and non-credentialed health care workers during a transitional phase. The modification is necessary due to delays in the procurement process for the upcoming MQS2-NG program, which aims to enhance the efficiency of medical services contracts.

    The Defense Health Agency (DHA) seeks approval for a modification to an existing contract for Medical "Q"-Coded Services (MQS) to extend its ordering period from April 1, 2025, to October 31, 2025. This extension is essential to maintain medical support services at Department of Defense (DoD) Military Treatment Facilities pending the award of the MQS2-NG program, which aims to consolidate and improve the existing medical services contracts. Delays in the acquisition process necessitate this no-cost modification to avoid gaps in service provision. The current contracts will continue to provide non-personal medical support via credentialed and non-credentialed health care workers across the United States and territories. DHA anticipates shifting to a new competitive procurement strategy known as MQS2-NG to enhance efficiency, while ongoing efforts to increase competition will support future requirements. The extension ensures uninterrupted quality medical care for DoD beneficiaries during a transition period marked by unforeseen delays, specifically attributed to the COVID-19 pandemic and other challenges. This document aligns with government procurement regulations and aims to ensure compliance while addressing immediate medical service needs.
