RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a Blanket Purchase Order with Hardy Diagnostics Inc., in the amount of $140,000 to purchase media, reagents and other supplies for the Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and the Contra Costa Health Centers for the period July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

CCRMC’s Clinical Laboratory uses Hardy Diagnostics Inc. for high quality, easily obtainable media and other products that are required to rapidly identify sensitivity to antibiotics so the patient can be treated as soon as possible.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

The CCRMC Clinical Laboratory will not be able to perform patient testing without these supplies.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

No impact.
