FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this action will result in expenditures of up to $632,000 and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues.

BACKGROUND:

Previously, the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) went through bid process for the selection of their Prime Medical/Surgical distributor. One of the bid requirements was for the selected vendor to provide a product distribution channel from their distribution center to the point of use at the hospital and clinics. Professional Hospital Supply (PHS) was the only distributor that provided their customers with end-to-end distribution. In 2014, Medline Industries purchased PHS. Both PHS and Medline were awarded Medical/Surgical distribution agreements through Vizient (formerly VHA/UHC/Med Assets).

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Included with the End-to-End Distribution Services is the Medline on-site team. They are responsible for providing supply inventory management and maintenance on the PAR carts seven (7) days per week, three-hundred sixty-five (365) days per year.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this purchase order is not approved, The Medline on-site team will no longer be available to distribute medical supplies to units within CCRMC and Health Centers.
