Opportunity Overview
The Utah Department of Health and Human Services is accepting applications under DHHS91155 from qualified providers to deliver fiscal management services for people using Self-Administered Services, including timely electronic payroll processing and required background-screening support.
Open-Ended Application Structure
DHHS91155 is an open-ended Invitation for Applications with no set closing date. DHHS evaluates applications as they are received and anticipates perpetual contracts for all qualified providers. Applications must be submitted by email only to kwilling@utah.gov with the subject line “IFA DHHS91155” plus the provider business name. Applications must not be submitted through U3P. Questions are submitted through U3P, and posted answers or addenda may modify requirements.
Qualifications
Mandatory qualifications include at least one staff member with a current CPA license and at least five years of CPA experience overseeing services, sufficient liquidity to fund employer payroll for at least two pay periods, approval for consolidated unemployment-insurance filing through Utah DWS, approved Medicaid-provider status for applicable DSPD HCBS waivers, a Medicaid-compliant claims-processing system, and a Utah-based accounting and customer-service physical office.
The evaluation also requires a completed DHHS Data Sheet, signed Conflict of Interest Disclosure, W-9 signed within six months, Business Associate Agreement, Medicaid Enrollment Documentation, verification of active Utah business registration in good standing, an organization chart identifying payroll, CPA and criminal-background-check staff, and supporting CPA licensure/experience evidence.
Rates and Funding
Providers must not submit pricing. DHHS uses pre-established rates and does not guarantee utilization. Effective July 1, 2026, the rate table lists Financial Management Services at $101.61 per month, Financial Management Services Background Information at $10.00 per session, and Fingerprinting Services at $16.00 per need, along with the underlying SAS service-code rates. DHHS does not state an overall funding pool or universal contract ceiling in the accessible controlling documents.
Atlas Strategic Analysis
Atlas Opportunity Score: 78/100. This is a durable statewide contracting pathway with rolling evaluation and perpetual contracts for qualified providers, but the qualification gate is specialized and the incumbent award list already includes multiple fiscal-management vendors.
N9+ Fit Score: 0/100. The procurement is for fiscal-agent, payroll, background-screening and Medicaid claims-administration services, not remote physical examination technology or clinical care. Dr. Miltie direct pursuit is classified No Bid unless the scope materially changes.
Next Action
Prospective providers should verify every pass/fail qualification, review current U3P Q&A and DHHS addenda, complete the required forms, and submit the full application by email according to DHHS instructions.
