Opportunity Summary

The Department of Veterans Affairs is conducting market research through pre-solicitation notice 36C24826Q0776 to identify qualified small businesses capable of providing genomic sequencing classifier testing. This requirement is intended to support the C.W. Bill Young Veterans Medical Center in Bay Pines, Florida, by securing a reference laboratory to perform and interpret genomic-based assessments for thyroid cancer patients. The agency is evaluating the feasibility of various set-asides, including Service-Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business (SDVOSB) and Veteran-Owned Small Business (VOSB). The effort is categorized under NAICS 513210 Software Publishers and PSC B504 Special Studies/Analysis- Chemical/Biological.

The scope of work involves providing technical and professional services for Afirma fine needle aspiration (FNA) and TERT DNA testing, corresponding to CPT codes 81546 and 81345. These tests deliver critical genomic information and individualized risk assessments to guide treatment decisions for aggressive forms of disease, such as medullary thyroid cancer. The laboratory must maintain Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) licensure and provide comprehensive results, including quantitative scores on a continuous scale and professional reports that reflect clinical application. Combined testing with Xpression Atlas (XA) is utilized to allow physicians to address multiple clinical questions using a single, minimally invasive sample.

Bill Young Veterans Medical Center is seeking Genomic Sequencing Classifier (GSC) testing for thyroid cancer patients. This test is used to determine treatment plan for thyroid cancer patients in a prognostic, predictive, comprehensive, individualized risk assessment. Afirma GSC is proven to detect medullary thyroid cancer a rare, but aggressive, form of the disease. These procedures require the services of an outside/reference laboratory to provide comprehensive, individualized risk assessments with results provided in a quantitative score, based on a continuous scale from 0-100. 2.Objective: The reference laboratory shall provide technical and professional services for performance and interpretation of the genomic-based testing for our thyroid cancer patients. The test will deliver critical genomic information to guide treatment decisions. In addition to GSC, Xpression Atlas (XA) provide physicians with a comprehensive solution for a complex landscape in thyroid cancer diagnosis and individualization of care. The combined offering enables physicians to answer multiple clinical questions for their thyroid patients using a single, minimally invasive fine needle aspiration (FNA) sample. 3.Scope: The VAHCS requires the reference laboratory to have the capability to perform and interpret the following list of tests on thyroid biopsies: Afirma FNA - CPT Code 81546 TERT DNA - CPT 81345 4.Reference Laboratory BAA: A signed VHA HIPPA Business Associate Agreement (BAA) is not required from reference laboratories for appropriate security and privacy handling of PHI-patient health information and identity. Reference Laboratories are considered continuity of care. Tasks: The Reference Laboratory must: Be a CLIA licensed/approved laboratory Provide Bay Pines VAHCS a copy of licensure upon request Provide preprinted order form Call all critical results to provider Provide a written descriptive, professional report to include comments that reflect clinical application.
