WHAT THEY WANT
(Summarized from the RFP)
The City of Santa Monica Fire Department is seeking a qualified third-party billing firm to take over billing, accounts receivable and collections for two programs: emergency medical services (EMS) and fire prevention. The City transports roughly 8,500 patients a year and is not staffed to perform billing itself, so it wants one contractor to handle the full cycle from start to finish and relieve Fire and City staff of the workload.

HOW TO SUBMIT
Submit through the City's OpenGov procurement portal; enter answers directly in the portal's questionnaire rather than linking to them, and upload the letter of transmittal as a PDF signed by the person authorized to obligate the organization.

An amended proposal must be a complete replacement identified as such in the transmittal letter, a withdrawal must be a signed written request to the City contact, and late proposals are not accepted.
