Description
The South Carolina Commission for the Blind (SCCB) is issuing a Request for Information (RFI) to identify qualified physicians or optometrists capable of providing individual eye examinations across the state. The purpose is to determine whether individuals meet the federal definition of “blind” for SCCB program eligibility. Respondents must supply capability statements, cost estimates per examination, and service area coverage. No contract award or payment is attached to this RFI; the agency only seeks planning data.
• Scope: Perform individual eye exams to assess visual acuity ≤ 20/200 or visual‑field ≤ 20° for SCCB clientele.
• Target providers: Optometrists or ophthalmologists willing to travel statewide.
• Required response: Cover letter, company overview, answers to five specific questions (including estimated cost per exam), and any additional relevant information, submitted via email by the deadline.
