Obstetrician and Gynaecologist Physician Services

The Navajo Area Indian Health Service in Window Rock, Arizona, requires obstetrician and gynaecologist physician services to ensure comprehensive, culturally acceptable personal and public health services are available to American Indians and Alaska Natives. The agency is seeking to solve the problem of limited access to specialized maternal and women's healthcare for patients, staff, and visitors of the local service unit and health center. The selected physicians must demonstrate local awareness and respect for American Indian and Alaska Native practices while delivering care. The scope of work covers performing both outpatient and inpatient OB/GYN duties at a health center facility that is physically separated from a hospital. This facility provides a full range of ambulatory services, including primary care, nursing, laboratory, and x-ray services, available at least forty hours a week. The scheduled tours of duty will vary based on facility needs, utilizing eight-hour, ten-hour, or twelve-hour shifts. The agency requires the physician to utilize personal protective equipment to prevent exposure to biological, chemical, and radioactive hazards during the performance of duties. Bidders must be onshore organizations based in the United States to be eligible for this opportunity. The agency requires all work to be performed onsite at the designated facility in Window Rock, Arizona. The agency is currently looking for proposals to determine the budget and has not disclosed specific evaluation criteria or key dates in the initial solicitation details.
