The City of Philadelphia government authority is seeking a vendor to establish and manage a comprehensive health care delivery system for adult inmates and youthful residents. The agency needs to solve the challenge of providing consistent, high-quality medical, dental, and psychiatric care within its correctional and youth facilities. This initiative requires a structured system that integrates daily clinical operations with specialized health services to ensure the well-being of the population under the agency's care. The scope of work covers on-site physician coverage, nursing coverage, dental services, pharmacy services, and mental health services. The designated physician must visit the youth center at least twice a week, and nurses must remain available every day to attend to the medical needs of the residents. Additionally, the selected provider must manage ancillary and diagnostic services, maintain medical records, submit monthly reports, and handle miscellaneous operational needs such as medical waste disposal, medical testing, oxygen units, and medication administration training for line staff. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States. All contracted work must be performed on-site at the designated authority facilities in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The agency is looking for budget proposals to determine the cost of these services, and the resulting contract will span a three-year period. Interested parties must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than July 7, 2026.
