HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 06212011 - C.81RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department,
to execute a Purchase Order with Philips Medical Systems in the amount of $128,950.70 for
a Digital Mobile Imaging System at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% Enterprise Fund I.
BACKGROUND:
As equipment ages and technology advances many parts and components are no longer
produced thereby rendering a change in status of equipment. Contra Costa Regional Medical
Center has equipment that falls into this category. Based on the change in status letter
(effective Dec. 31, 2010) Philips Healthcare will no longer be able to offer full service
support for the BV300 Mobile Imaging unit. The proposed replacement system will provide
improved image quality, reduced radiation dose and a wide range of clinical, surgical and
vascular applications. This system is ideal for the OR, ER, ICU or surgical imaging.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Due to the change in status this unit will no longer be supported by Philips Healthcare.
Without the ability to have parts and other components available, service becomes
unattainable. The OR/Surgery department is the primary user of this system, therefore not
replacing the current unit will seriously impact surgical service and overall patient care.
