RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Health Services Director, a purchase order with Sleep and Brain Inc., in an amount not to exceed $507,400 for the purchase of home sleep study devices for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Health Centers for the period from October 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this purchase order will result in expenditures of up to $507,400 and will be funded by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues.

BACKGROUND:

CCRMC and Health Centers use home sleep study devices to assist providers in diagnosing and treating sleep-related disorders to minimize the exacerbation of Chronic Heart Failure, Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, Obstructive Sleep Apnea, and Obesity Hypoventilation Syndrome.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Sleep and Brain Inc. will supply both the WatchPAT One and WatchPAT 300 devices for home sleep studies for the Cardiopulmonary Department. These devices offer an innovative testing method that is more accurate and comfortable for patients. The WatchPAT One device is single-use and disposable, unlike the current tests used, which makes for lower infection control issues.

Approval of this purchase order will allow CCRMC and Health Centers to purchase both the WatchPAT One and WatchPAT 300 home sleep study devices for the Cardiopulmonary Department through September 30, 2024.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order is not approved, CCRMC and Health Centers will be unable to purchase the home sleep study devices needed for diagnosing sleep-related disorders, directly affecting patient care.
