Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral Treatment Service

The District of Columbia government is seeking a vendor to implement the Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment public health model for children, adolescents, and adults. The agency aims to integrate this model into routine care delivery within primary care and community health settings, including those providing ongoing care to patients with chronic or complex health conditions. This initiative addresses the need for early screening and intervention for underage drinking, opioid use, and other substance use. The scope of work requires delivering early screening and intervention for alcohol and drug use for all patients starting at twelve years of age. The selected vendor must also provide timely referral to more intensive treatment for patients who have substance use disorders. All contracted work will be performed offsite from the vendor's own location. Only organizations based in the United States are eligible to bid on this opportunity. The agency has not disclosed a specific budget and is currently looking for proposals to determine the cost of the services. The source documents do not specify the evaluation criteria or key dates for this procurement.
