RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent to execute, on behalf of the Health Services Department, an amendment to purchase order #F02871 with Avella of Deer Valley Inc., to increase the payment limit by $250,000 to a new payment limit of $3,750,000 for the compounding of chemotherapy regimens for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and to extend the term from May 31, 2019 through June 30, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

Avella of Deer Valley, Inc. is the only Compounding Pharmacy that can provide CCRMC and Clinic patients with certain compounded medications at this time. Due to State and Federal requirements already in place, the Martinez Infusion Pharmacy is currently under construction to assure compliance with these regulatory requirements. To continue providing services to our cancer patients during this construction work, we need to extend the services provided by Avella of Deer Valley, Inc. until the anticipated construction completion date of June 30, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this Purchase Order amendment is not approved, we will not be able to take care of our most vulnerable patient population at the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center.
