English term or phrase: are of a type that has contracted in sufficient numbers
Quelque chose m'échappe dans cette phrase...

However, if the providers of services or supplies for which expenses are incurred are of a type that has contracted in sufficient numbers, as determined by the insurance company, to furnish services or supplies for a Negotiated Charge, then the Payment Percentage will be the applicable Preferred Care or Non-Preferred Care Payment Percentage as specified above for Hospital Expenses

Explanation:
Si les prestataires ou les fournisseurs ayant encouru des frais ont réalisé une quantité suffisante de soumissions....

As kashew said, the context seems to indicate we are dealing with a tender.
However, it may mean too "enter into a contract". But that doesn't seem to be a problem since submiting a tender implies that the person has necessarily (though not always) signed a contract.

I have simplified the structure of the original sentence in the French version because it's too wordy and misleading.

Hope this helps.
