(RFP) for Recovery Audit Contractor (RAC) - Texas Health and ...

(7) Statistician
(8) Other Professional Recovery Audit staff (including all Key Staff); and
(9) Other Administrative Services staff.
The respondent must include All-Inclusive Hourly Labor Rates for all of the different type of staff
that would be potentially working on audit services related to fraud investigations, program
integrity efforts, other specific audits, and any other service provided by the RAC that that would
be paid on a fixed fee basis.
The successful respondent will employ the All-Inclusive Hourly Labor Rates proposed in
developing pricing proposals for the performance of a specific audit not paid on a contingency
basis, audit services related to fraud investigations or program integrity efforts, or any other
service provided by the RAC that would not be appropriate to utilize a contingency fee to
compensate the RAC for those specific services rendered. The all-inclusive hourly labor rates
will be proposed for the first 12 month Operational period of the resulting Contract. Rates for
subsequent 12 month Operational periods and for any Operational period less than 12 months
will be determined by the application of a fixed annual price inflator/deflator proposed by the
respondent and accepted by HHSC.
The All-Inclusive Hourly Labor Rates proposed by the respondent must contain all costs related
to performing the required functions, including but not limited to local travel, long-distance travel,
long distance telephone communications, computer depreciation and/or computer usage costs,
salaries, fringe benefits, indirect overhead charges, and administrative service fees. No
additional costs will be paid for any other items unless HHSC, in its sole discretion, determines
that any additional cost(s) requested by the respondent are extremely unique to the specific
project and that the respondent should not have otherwise included those additional costs as
part of the required all-inclusive hourly labor rates.
6.4 General Access to Accounting Records
The successful respondent must provide authorized representatives of HHSC full access to all
financial and accounting records related to the performance of a Contract resulting from this
RFP. The financial and accounting records shall be provided to the authorized representatives
of HHSC in an electronic format when requested.

monitoring and support any HHSC, state, and federal reporting requirements.
