RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Department, an amendment to Purchase Order #F05287 with Coopersurgical, Inc., to increase the payment limit by $99,000 to a new payment limit of $198,000 for the purchase of obstetrical and gynecological medical equipment, and supplies for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Health Centers, with no change in the original term of July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2018.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funded in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.
BACKGROUND:
Coopersurgical, Inc., has been providing obstetrical and gynecological equipment and supplies to CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Clinics for more than ten years. The 2017 surveys by the Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and the major increase in patients has necessitated the addition of more money to this Purchase Order.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this amendment is not approved, the Health Services Department will be unable to continue caring for pregnant women and infants at CCRMC.
