The proposed Modification No. M009 to Contract No. CW102877 with Gainwell Technologies, LLC seeks to exercise the first option year of the contract, which amounts to $23,430,348. This modification will extend the contract period from December 1, 2025, through November 30, 2026, allowing Gainwell to continue providing a Medicaid Management Information System (MMIS) Core System and Supporting Services for the District of Columbia's Medicaid and Children's Health Insurance Program, as well as other health benefit programs.

The modification is supported by a certification from the Office of the Chief Financial Officer, confirming that the funding is included in the District's Local Budget and Financial Plan for Fiscal Year 2026. Additionally, the Citywide Clean Hands database indicates that Gainwell is current with its District taxes, ensuring compliance with local regulations. All other terms and conditions of the original contract remain unchanged.
