Explanation
Ordinance number 0529-2014, approved by City Council on March 24, 2014, authorized the Board of Health to enter into a contract with OSU Internal Medicine, LLC in the amount of $53,750.00 to assure quality medical care to eligible persons living with HIV or AIDS in central Ohio (Franklin, Licking, Delaware, Morrow, Union, Madison, Pickaway and Fairfield counties) for the contract period of March 1, 2014 through February 28, 2015. Ordinance 1583-2014 authorized modification 1 for additional outpatient ambulatory funding in the amount of $66,750.00.
This ordinance is needed to further modify and increase contract EL015713 in the amount of $100,000.00 for the total contract amount not to exceed $220,500.00 with OSU Internal Medicine, LLC.
This modification is necessary to provide additional funding for OSU Internal Medicine, LLC for the provision of outpatient ambulatory services for HIV care. These services were advertised through vendor services (SA005137) in October, 2013 according to bidding requirements of the City Code.
The modification amount was determined based on negotiations with the vendor. This ordinance will provide anticipated funding for the remainder of the contract period and it would be manifestly impractical to bid this contract for the remainder of the grant period ending February 28, 2015.
The contract compliance number and expiration dates for this provider are:
OSU Internal Medicine, LLC. - 311369596 - 1/22/15
This ordinance is submitted as an emergency to ensure sufficient funding is available to provide quality medical care to eligible persons living with HIV/AIDS, and to ensure timely payment to this provider.
FISCAL IMPACT: This contract is entirely funded by a grant award from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Health Resources and Services Administration. This ordinance is contingent upon passage of appropriation ordinance 0179-2015.
