New Hampshire closes Medicaid external-quality-review solicitation
New Hampshire DHHS sought one or more external quality review organizations to assess quality, timeliness and access for Medicaid beneficiaries enrolled in statewide Medicaid Care Management. The official procurement page lists the solicitation close as October 14, 2026 at noon and lists official Q&A and Addendum 1 dated October 6. The page does not state an award date or identify an awardee.
Precapture analysis
The procurement has moved past the proposal deadline into an award watch. Because this is an oversight-services procurement rather than an MCO health-plan award, the eventual selection should be tracked for its likely role in quality and access scrutiny without treating it as plan selection.
Parent, plan, and program come from the plan graph. Enrollment and share use the latest CMS reported count. Operations counts are CMS MCPAR. A dollar amount is not on this page.
CMS reporting years in this file run from 2016 through 2024. Retrieved 2026-11-01. The latest reporting year is 2024, which is behind the retrieval date. Enrollment figures are the CMS cell for that reporting year. Share is calculated from CMS reported total enrollment for that state, program, and year. Precapture does not combine rows. A year missing from a trend was not reported. A plan and region with more than one CMS row in a year has no trend and no year-over-year change. The dataset says a reported 0 may not truly represent 0 when a state suppressed a small count. CMS reported.
