RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, a purchase order with Agiliti Health, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 for the rental of medical devices and equipment for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC), for the period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This contract will result in annual contractual service expenditures in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000 and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues.
BACKGROUND:
The CCRMC rents hospital beds, infusion pumps, and other medical equipment and devices from this vendor. Agiliti Health, Inc., has provided competitive pricing through the Vizient Group Purchasing Contract, and it has proven more cost effective to rent than to purchase some medical equipment. Agiliti Health Inc. has continued to service the hospital even through its name change from Universal Hospital Services and a significant gap of time in which they were not paid when said name change occurred and a new purchase order could be approved. CCRMC has been using this vendor since 2007.
