Title
A Resolution of the City Commission accepting the recommendation of the Fire Department to extend the contract with InPhynet South Broward, LLC for Medical Director Services until a new RFP can be issued and a new contract can be executed.
Body
The current contract RFP 2015.07.20 was executed in 2015 with Inphynet South Broward, LLC for Medical Director services that have been carried out through Frederick Keroff, M.D.
The purpose of the contract is to provide supervision and accepting responsibility for the medical performance of Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT)’s and Paramedics functioning in the Fire Department and Emergency Medical Service Department under applicable provisions of the Florida Statutes, including training, oversight, and quality assurance review services.
These services have allowed the City to appropriately respond to situations like the COVID-19 pandemic and to remain consistent with the medical guidance and advice being received in order to address our City’s needs. This extension will allow the time needed for an RFP process to be completed, and a new contract to be executed.
Pursuant to Section 2-764 of the Procurement Code entitled “Approval of Change orders and Contract Modifications.”
