By: Jacqueline Pigg, Contracts Administrator
DATE: December 20, 2007 County
SUBJECT: Approval of Contract#23-420 with RadicaLogic Technologies Inc.
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Pat Godley) to execute on
behalf of the County, Contract #23-420 with RadicaLogic Technologies Inc., dba R L Solutions,
a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $177,000, to provide an automated incident reporting
system, for the period from January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2010.
FISCAL IMPACT:
This Contract is funded 100% by Enterprise Fund I.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATION(S):
Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers (CCRMC) is required by
SB1301 (Reporting of Adverse Events) to report adverse events to Department of Health Services
within 5 days after the event has been detected. SB 1312 (Financial Penalties for Hospital
Licensing Violations Financial) has already increased financial penalties for non-compliance
effective January 1, 2007. CCRMC received a report from Department of Health Services citing
various areas of non-compliance. One of the deficiencies cited was: 482.21 (a) (1) QAPI Medical
Errors. CCRMC failed to identify and reduce medical errors "because there has been no analysis
of medication errors for 2005 and 2006".
R L Solutions' Risk Monitor Pro software was selected through a competitive bid process. Using
Risk Monitor Pro, CCRMC will be able to comply with the regulatory requirements of the
Department of Health Services regarding timely reporting of adverse incidents and medication
errors.
Under Contract #23-420 the Contractor will provide an automated incident reporting system,
including installation, maintenance, and license of Risk Monitor Pro software, through December
31, 2010.
