Harris Health Request for Information for Inpatient Hospice Services at County Hospitals

Harris Health is issuing a Request for Information to identify hospice organizations capable of providing inpatient hospice services for terminally ill patients at Ben Taub Hospital and Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital. The buyer seeks information on capabilities to deliver patient-centered end-of-life care, pain control, and interdisciplinary care coordination for hospitalized patients facing social, financial, or placement barriers to external discharge. The source description notes an expected one-year contract period and required onshore performance in Bellaire, TX. This RFI is solely for planning purposes, and Harris Health is not currently seeking or accepting proposals. Bidders must be US-based vendors. Interested organizations must submit response documents containing high-level overviews of their history, licensure, clinical criteria, experience with safety-net populations, and general commercial pricing models through Euna. Formal proposals and exact pricing information must be omitted, though vendors may describe pricing model structures. Responses are due by November 18, 2026, at 2:00 P.M. CDT.
