The State of Wyoming, Wyoming Department of Corrections, issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for comprehensive medical, dental, mental health, and special services at prison facilities. The RFP was cancelled due to unforeseen circumstances, including the Covid-19 pandemic, which impacted the state's budget and required a reassessment of the scope of services. The department intends to submit a new RFP based on its assessment. Key aspects of the original RFP include:
• Comprehensive medical services
• Dental services
• Mental health services
• Special services
• Prison facilities
The RFP was cancelled, and no contract was awarded. The department's decision to cancel the RFP and reassess its needs may indicate a shift in priorities or a need for more flexible contracting arrangements.
