- Description
- The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) intends to award on a sole source basis, under the Simplified Acquisition Procedures (Dollar Thresold of $100,000) a firm fixed price award to Dr. Steven Levenson, 7801 Ruxwood Road, Baltimore, MD 21204-3540. This position requires a medical expert who can assist the Division of Nursing Homes in the development of detailed interpretive guidance revisions for surveyors, as well as medical and pharmacy issues concerning geriatric residents of nursing homes. Dr. Levenson is a nationally-recognized expert in geriatric medical direction in nursing homes, having written several key textbooks for this specialty. He has an uncommon understanding of the CMS survey process, regulations, and guidelines for long term care, through his long participation in expert panels and stakeholder groups with CMS, as a national representative of the American Medical Directors Association, of which he is the current President Elect. He has been working as a consultant to the Division for the past few years on the survey guidance revision project, through previous and current procurements. He has also been working on providing consultation on emergent medical issues before the Division, and through this effort, he has gained significant understanding of the surveyor role in evaluating facility compliance with the long term care requirements, and their need to evaluate medical decisions of facility physicians and medical directors. He has also assisted the Division in the past with surveyor training on drug issues, which was extremely well received. All responsible sources may submit capability statements in consideration to the Agency at the above address. In addition, all contractors must be registered with the Central Contractors Registration System (CCR) at www.ccr.gov.
