This PWS includes the associated program management, human engineering, and logistic support planning requirements. The use of the terms “beneficiary”, “veterans”, “patients”, and “patient” are used interchangeably and refer to the recipient of required supplies, equipment and incidental services required under the contract. BACKGROUND: The acquisition of home oxygen services is being initiated to provide Home Oxygen services to Veteran beneficiaries serviced by VISN 15. VISN 15 does not have the capacity to provide these services, so a contract has been sought for the provision of home oxygen and all associated products and services. As of October 2025, VISN 15 has approximately 5000 beneficiaries on home oxygen and 115 on ventilators. The total number of patients fluctuates each month due to patients being added/removed from the program. Historical data indicates that the overall number of unique patients on home oxygen has minimally fluctuated from January 2020 (5,585) to January 2022 (5000). 1.1 LOCATIONS: All services shall be performed in the veteran's place of residence. The area of service shall be all patients serviced by VISN 15, including counties of the catchment areas as well as additional counties identified in this contract. The equipment needs are subject to change as determined by the prescribing physician. Contractors shall have a facility or resources physically located in the geographic area in which they shall provide service. Non-territory requests shall be required from time to time and the Contractor shall accept these "non-territory" Veterans at that Contractor’s awarded price. VA reserves the right to assign these patients to any contractor. The geographical boundaries described herein have been determined as the areas of responsibility/jurisdiction for each local VA Medical Center (see VISN 15 Facilities and Counties covered, attached).
