RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #26-670-6 with Oxford Immunotec, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $10,000 for the provision of outside clinical laboratory services for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers (CCRMC), for the period from June 1, 2016 through May 31, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is 100% funded Hospital Enterprise Fund I. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

In April 2016, the County Administrator approved, and the Purchasing Services Manager executed, Contract #26-670-5 with Oxford Immunotec, Inc., for the provision of outside laboratory services for CCRMC patients for the period from March 1, 2016 through May 31, 2016. Due to lengthy negotiations with the Contractor, the contract renewal was delayed. This Contractor has been providing essential outside laboratory testing services to the County for several years. The Division is requesting this contract be renewed without any disruption in service. Approval of Contract #26-670-6 will allow the Contractor to provide outside clinical laboratory services through May 31, 2017. This contract includes mutual indemnification.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, patients requiring specialized laboratory testing at CCRMC will not have access to Contractor’s services.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
