Centers for Disease Control (CDC) intends on entering into a follow-on sole source contract with Open Medicine Institute (OMI). The nature of this acquisition is to collect clinical follow-up and additional data on CFS patients. This requires that the contractor has the required expertise in diagnosis and management of CFS and the infrastructure for clinical research.... OMI is the only contractor who can meet the above requirements.
Has Dr. Klimas failed to qualify? At the November CFSAC meeting, the CDC reported having:
Issued three contracts for clinical assessment of CFS to try to collect clinical data to inform decision making and revisions to the CFS case definition. CDC believes that the process has to be data driven. The data will be collected from seven different clinics. The organizations are:

• Neuro Immune Disorders ‐ Nancy Klimas, PI
• Open Medical Institute – A. Koglenik, D. Peterson, C. Lapp, L. Bateman, R. Podell, PIs
