RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director or designee to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #76-558-1 with Neogenomics Laboratories, Inc., a corporation, effective February 1, 2017, to amend Contract #76-558 to increase the payment limit by $100,000, from $50,000 to a new payment limit of $150,000 with no change to the term of September 1, 2016 through August 31, 2019, to provide additional outside laboratory testing services

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I.

BACKGROUND:

In January 2017, the County Administrator approved and Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #76-558 to provide outside laboratory testing services including renal biopsies and various histology tests not provided at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Health Centers for the period from September 1, 2016 through August 31, 2019.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

CCRMC recently received corrected invoices dating back to February 2017 from the contractor. CCRMC's clinical laboratory uses this contractor for specialized testing that can only be done at this laboratory due to special equipment needed.

Approval of Amendment Agreement #76-558-1 will allow the contractor to provide additional outside laboratory testing services due to an increase in patients and patient testing through August 31, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, patients requiring outside laboratory testing services will not have access to the contractor’s services.
