The Agency hereby provides notice that it intends to enter into a sole source contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1560 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

The Enrollment Broker provides services for SCDHHS in accordance with the provisions and requirements set forth in Title XIX and Title XXI of the Social Security Act, 42 CFR 438 and the South Carolina Code of Laws, their attendant regulations, guidelines, and policies.  The South Carolina Healthy Connections Medicaid program requires Beneficiaries to enroll in a Managed Care Organization for the purposes of managing their medical care.  The Enrollment Broker receives files containing Medicaid eligibility records and completes the services required to enroll Medicaid members into Managed Care Organizations.  To ensure compliance and continuity, the uninterrupted continuation of these services is critical and of paramount importance until a new solicitation is issued and a contract is awarded and operational. Failure to provide the services would impact Medicaid recipients’ ability to receive care. SCDHHS is planning a strategic change to move the current Member Contact Model to a new unified service center strategy to provide improved Medicaid customer and contact center services, which has been approved by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. SCDHHS will soon release a competitive Request for Proposals (RFP) to procure the unified customer service center. The sole source will allow the Agency to transition to the new contract without disruption of services to Medicaid applicants and beneficiaries.

The Agency hereby provides notice that it entered into an emergency contract per S.C. Code Ann. §11-35-1570 with Vendor for the following supplies, services, information technology, or construction:

The Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), Department of Engineering & Facilities (E&F) in accordance with §11-35-1570 (B) of the SC Consolidated Procurement Code, and in accordance with Regulation 19-445.2110 is announcing the award of an emergency procurement to Blue Collars, LLC for emergency plumbing/sewer services. Toilets and showers at the Alumni House and Wellness Center Buildings have been closed since January 17, 2024, due to an unknown sewer blockage impacting both buildings. Blue Collars was contacted to assess the issue. After significant tracing and digging in collaboration with the City of Charleston Sewer Department, they located a buried manhole in the Alumni House parking lot that MUSC was unaware of. The manhole had multiple tree roots growing into it and was blocked with large pieces of asphalt; due to this significant blockage, sewage accumulated under the buildings. The blockage threatens public health and must be repaired to prevent further contamination.

This notice is not a request for competitive proposals. Telephone responses will not be accepted.

Bidder’s right to protest as listed in Section 11-35-4210 in the South Carolina Consolidated Procurement Code applies to this announcement of an emergency procurement.

The lack of a radioactive source eliminates the need for extended down time for source replacement, frequent leak testing on the analyzers, and health risks to those who use and are exposed to the existing radioactive source analyzers in use by the Division.
