Approve and authorize the Purchasing Agent, on behalf of the Health Services Department, to execute a Purchase
Order with Henry Schein, Inc., in the amount of $300,000, for dental supplies, equipment and repairs at Contra Costa
Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period from May 1, 2012 through April 30, 2014.

BACKGROUND:
Contra Costa Regional Medical Center’s Dental Clinics have purchased dental supplies and equipment from Henry
Schein, Inc. for many years. The Dental Clinics and Jail Facilities receive institutional discount price and prompt
personal service. The special nature of dental equipment and supplies requires a vendor who specializes in dentistry.
Due to the Department’s long standing business relationship with Henry Schein, Inc., the County’s Dental Clinics and
Jail Facilities receive additional benefits including free loaner equipment during repairs and special discounts. This
Purchase Order covers the Richmond, Martinez, Pittsburg and Baypoint Clinics and the Jail Facilities.
