The New Mexico Disability Determination Services (NMDDS) is an agency, which is part of the New Mexico Division of Vocational Rehabilitation (NMDVR). The NMDDS's objective is to provide New Mexico residents applying for disability benefits under Title II and Title XVI of the Social Security Act an accurate and timely determination regarding eligibility for Social Security disability benefits. The NMDDS wishes to satisfy its responsibilities to review Social Security Administration (SSA) Disability Claims through contracting with appropriately licensed health professionals in the State of New Mexico qualified to perform such reviews. Accordingly, the NMDDS requests potential Offerers to submit proposals to provide such services.
The SSA requires that the majority of disability decisions be reviewed and signed by both an experienced Disability Adjudicator and by a licensed physician, psychiatrist and/or psychologist, all of whom are considered Medical Consultants (MC) for the purpose of this RFP. Through this solicitation, the NMDDS seeks to contract with several Medical Consultants who will be responsible for the adjudication process as indicated in the Scope of Work.
