RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #72-155-1 with National Labs, Inc., a corporation, to amend Contract #72-155, effective February 1, 2021, to increase the payment limit by $3,000,000, from $8,910,000 to a new payment limit of $11,910,000 with no change in the term of August 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021, to provide additional clinical laboratory services for COVID-19 tests for Contra Costa Health Services (CCHS).

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment will result in an additional $3,000,000 in contractual service expenditures and will be funded 100% by COVID-19 Federal and State emergency funding sources.

BACKGROUND:

This contract will establish a relationship between CCHS and contractor to increase the County's ability to processes laboratory specimens related to COVID-19 testing collected throughout the County and reduce delays in receiving test results.

On August 11, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #72-155 with National Labs, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $8,910,000 to provide clinical laboratory services for COVID-19 tests for CCHS.

Approval of Amendment Agreement #72-155-1 will allow contractor to provide additional clinical laboratory services, including laboratory processing of COVID-19 tests for CCHS through July 31, 2021.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the County will not have access to the contractor’s clinical laboratory services and COVID-19 testing results will continue to be delayed.
