The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) intends to modify an existing contract to meet mandates of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) of 2009.

CMS determined this work is within the scope of an existing contract with Palmetto GBA and therefore, intends to obtain the services required via a modification to the contract. The contract is for Train the Trainer services and includes the development of training plans and assistance with plan implementation. The contract is being modified to obtain education conference calls. The conference calls will be used to provide training for approximately 5,000 participants from the Medicare Administrative Contractors, Fiscal Intermediaries and Medicare Carriers, Medicare providers, DMERC's, RHHIs, CMS central and regional offices and other parties as mandated by ARRA.

The contract being modified was originally awarded competitively and is a Cost Plus Fixed Fee (CPFF) type contract. Due to the fact that the nature of the work being performed, including the work as modified, is unpredictable in terms of the actual number of participants and duration of the conferences the contract type remains CPFF.
