RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute (1) Software and Services Agreement #23-630 with Henry Schein, Inc., a Delaware corporation, in an amount not to exceed $542,641, for the purchase and installation of dental imaging equipment and software for the period of March 13, 2018 through March 12, 2021, and (2) a Software License and Support Agreement with Medicor Imaging, Inc.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funded by Hospital Enterprise Fund I.
BACKGROUND:
Digital dental x-rays are standard care in the healthcare industry. Contra Costa County Health Services Department has some digital dental equipment but need to continue the implementation throughout the rest of the dental clinics. Switching from manual to digital setup will allow for 30 – 40% less radiation delivered to the patient, an unlimited number of x-rays to be made available rather than incurring the cost of $32 per patient for a full set of x-rays and eliminate real-estate space costs with not having to house file cabinets with paper films. The existing problems with the support and equipment with the current Planmeca x-ray machines will be resolved by switching to Henry Schein, Inc.
