RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Director, a Purchase Order with American Messaging Services, LLC., a limited liability company, in an amount not to exceed $265,000 for the rental of at least 900 pagers for use by the medical staff at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period from January 7, 2019 through January 6, 2021.  

FISCAL IMPACT:

100% funding is included in the Hospital Enterprise Fund I budget.  


BACKGROUND:

American Messaging Services, LLC provides pagers used by the medical staff at CCRMC and the Health Centers. Cell phones do not get service in certain areas of the hospital, so pagers are essential to being able to quickly locate medical staff during emergencies. Contractor also handles the paging services for every County agency, thus enabling the County to standardize communication needs in the event of a disaster.  

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Purchase Order is not approved the Health Services Department will not have pagers, which could result in patient care issues or difficulty communicating with other County departments in the event of a disaster.
