Background

At the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, the Increasing Community Access to Testing (ICATT) program contracted with pharmacies to provide community pharmacy and surge sites maintained through a public-private partnership with various national pharmacy chains, independent pharmacies, and laboratories. Since 2020, ICATT contractors have performed nearly 50,000,000 tests and administered nearly 900,000 vaccines. As the country transitioned out of the Public Health Emergency (PHE), the ICATT program integrated vaccination delivery, medical assessment, and therapeutics disbursement to create a single point of access for acute care services. The ICATT program has been re-branded as Increasing Community Access to Testing, Treatment, and Prevention (ICATT) to reflect the inclusion of disease-agnostic medical countermeasures for under-resourced populations/communities and additional support for routine public health surveillance and research.

This procurement will provide large scale nationwide testing, assessment services, therapeutics, vaccines, sample collection and forwarding, and surge services/emergency response across the nation. The option to participate in Outreach and Education projects, as well as provide 3rd party Data Acquisition, and Distribution of Medical Countermeasures is also included.

  • Contractors are required to participate in all tasks of Core Services and Surge Services/Emergency Response. The additional tasks are optional.
