Test kit, syphilis clia waived(20/BX)

The Florida Department of Health awarded a contract (C61A3E) on August 25, 2025, for the procurement of syphilis test kits classified as CLIA waived. The contract, valued at $946, covers the acquisition of 4 boxes of test kits, with each box containing 20 test units. The unit price is $236.72 per box, and the contract is set to be completed by June 30, 2026.

The contract appears to be focused on medical diagnostic supplies, specifically syphilis testing kits that can be used in a wide range of clinical settings with minimal complexity. The Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) waived designation indicates these test kits meet specific criteria for simplified testing protocols, allowing for use in non-laboratory environments such as physician offices, community health centers, and other point-of-care facilities. The relatively modest contract value suggests this may be a supplemental or targeted procurement to support ongoing public health screening and diagnostic efforts within the state of Florida.
