RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #23-704 with Agfa Healthcare Corporation, a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $4,282,363, to provide imaging technology services to the Contra Costa Health Services Department (HSD), for the period from October 5, 2021 through October 4, 2026.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in expenditures of up to $4,282,363 over a five-year period and will be funded by 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues.

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the needs of the County's patient population by providing a radiology imaging system. Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS) Radiology Department provides, reads, interprets, and maintains radiology exams for its patients. To deliver this care, CCHS's Radiology Department has been using the Agfa IMPAX radiology imaging system since 2006 and upgraded the system in 2012. The system reached its end of useful life in December 2016 and needs replacing. In 2017, and 2018 CCHS conducted a search and evaluation of potential replacements for the outdated system.  



BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
  
In addition to considering upgrading Agfa's IMPAX radiology imaging system to the latest version, CCHS also evaluated Fujifilm and Philips, Picture Archiving and Communications Systems (PACS). Of these solutions, considered top tier, CCHS Radiologists chose Agfa's Enterprise Imaging Software system to replace the existing radiology imaging system. Agfa Healthcare Corporation's Enterprise Imaging Software services, including Agfa Patching and Endpoint Managed Services, will be used to assist CCHS in delivering services such as radiology exams and breast imaging exams. Agfa's Radiology PACS will benefit physicians, radiologists, and HSD clinics in the course of patient care. Under this contract, the Radiology PACS replacement system will be implemented and includes Enterprise Imaging production software, test licenses, third-party software, data migration, and hardware.  
  
Under Contract #23-704, this contractor will provide radiology imaging technology services for the period October 5, 2021 through October 4, 2026.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, CCHS’s radiology imaging system will continue to be at its end of useful life and will not receive the needed upgrades and patches necessary to deliver efficient patient care.
