GAO-11-797R: United States Government Accountability Office: Washington, DC 20548: July 14, 2011: Congressional Committees: Subject: Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act: Contracts Awarded and Consultants Retained by Federal Departments and Agencies to Assist in Implementing the Act: The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (HCERA), contained provisions to increase access to health insurance coverage through: health insurance market reforms; an expansion of Medicaid eligibility; and the creation of health insurance exchanges to provide small employers and individuals access to coverage.[Footnote 1] In addition, PPACA contained provisions designed to improve the quality of health care, reduce expenditures, and provide incentives for preventive and primary care. To help implement PPACA, federal departments and agencies awarded contracts, including contracts for consulting services. Contractors and consultants perform a variety of tasks, including research, market reviews, actuarial support, logistics and technical support, data management, and information technology support. As required by the Department of Defense and Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act, 2011, this report provides information on contracts awarded by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) and other federal departments and agencies related to authority provided by PPACA, including information on firms retained to facilitate contracting and consultants retained by HHS and other federal departments and agencies to assist in PPACA implementation. [Footnote 2] To complete this report, we asked HHS, the Department of Labor, the Department of the Treasury, and the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to provide data on all contracts awarded and consultants retained to assist in implementing PPACA.[Footnote 3] While the statute required us to report on the general expertise of the contractors and consultants, such information is not generally contained in the databases maintained by HHS, whose contracts constitute the majority of those reported. In lieu of information on general expertise, we provide a description of the contracts reported, regardless of department or agency. We also obtained data on firms retained by federal departments and agencies to facilitate contracting related to PPACA implementation. We did not audit the data reported to us. Through our discussions with HHS and other department and agency officials and quality-control checks we performed on the data, we determined that the data provided were sufficiently reliable for our purposes. We conducted our work from June 2011 to July 2011 in accordance with all sections of GAO's Quality Assurance Framework that are relevant to our objectives. The framework requires that we plan and perform the engagement to obtain sufficient and appropriate evidence to meet our stated objectives and to discuss any limitations in our work. We believe that the information and data obtained, and the analysis conducted, provide a reasonable basis for any findings and conclusions. See enclosure I for information on contracts awarded (including to consultants) by HHS to help implement PPACA. We identified one consultant in our review retained by HHS's Assistant Secretary for Administration. This consultant is listed in a separate table following the Assistant Secretary's table of contractors. Enclosures II, III, and IV provide similar information for contracts awarded by the Department of Labor, the Department of the Treasury, and OPM, respectively. We did not find that the Department of Labor, the Department of the Treasury, or OPM had retained any consultants. In addition, no firms were retained by HHS, the Department of Labor, the Department of the Treasury, or OPM to facilitate contracting. All of the enclosures include the names of the contractors and descriptions of the contracts (including contracts with consultants) and obligations and expenditures as of April 15, 2011, the date for which these data were most readily available. HHS, the Department of Labor, the Department of the Treasury's Internal Revenue Service, and OPM reviewed a draft of this report. HHS and the Department of Labor provided technical comments, which we have incorporated as appropriate. We are sending copies of this report to the Secretaries of HHS and Labor, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, and the Director of OPM, as well as interested congressional committees. In addition, the report will be available at no charge on the GAO Web site at [hyperlink, http://www.gao.gov].
