Clinical Documentation and Quality Review Services

The University of Iowa is soliciting sealed proposals from qualified USA-based suppliers to provide offsite clinical documentation and quality review services. The requested scope requires an integrated, physician-governed approach that encompasses post-discharge inpatient clinical documentation improvement reviews, DRG assignment accuracy, coding analysis, unified quality reporting dashboards, a dual-pass review process, clinician education, and physician advisor oversight. Suppliers must submit proposals electronically through the eBid system by 3:00 PM CT on November 4, 2026, and all questions must be submitted by 3:00 PM CT on October 22, 2026. Applicants must submit a detailed proposal limited to 25 pages, audited financial statements, three major account references, key consultant qualifications, a single managerial point of contact, an estimated implementation timeline, and detailed fee structure information. The University will evaluate proposals based on the presentation of the required materials and compliance with RFQL requirements to select the best-meeting supplier for a one-year contract term.
