Physician and Medical Director Services

The Mississippi State Veterans Home in Collins, Mississippi, requires dedicated physician and medical director services to manage the clinical care of its residents. The agency is seeking a qualified contractor to oversee resident admissions, conduct physical examinations, and establish comprehensive medical care plans. This initiative solves the agency's need for consistent, onsite medical leadership and regulatory compliance in resident care. The scope of work for the medical director role includes examining applicants for admission, performing annual physicals, reviewing laboratory results, and certifying admissions, transfers, and discharges. The medical director must also arrange for alternative coverage when the primary physicians are unavailable. The physician role requires performing medical reviews of residents at least once every 30 days for the first 90 days post-admission, and every 60 days thereafter. The physician may utilize a nurse practitioner or physician assistant to help meet resident needs, provided these professionals comply with all state and federal regulations. Eligible bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States, and all contracted work must be performed onsite at the facility in Collins, Mississippi. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget for these services. Bidders must submit any questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 25, 2026, and proposals may be submitted digitally via email or online.
