The Florida Department of Children and Families issued a blanket purchase order (C780B8) effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, for the procurement of copies of medical records required in support of dependency and termination of parental rights (TPR) trials for Child Legal Services cases. The contract is structured on an as-needed basis with an estimated annual value of $1,500.00 and a quantity of 1,500 requests. The primary contact for this procurement is Stefano McGregor at (772) 834-3853.

The fee structure adheres to applicable state and federal regulations, including Florida Department of Health standards and 20 CFR 416.1024, which establish a rate of $14.00 per request for disability-related submissions (inclusive of shipping). Non-disability requests are subject to Florida Statute 92.153 pricing, which includes a basic search fee of $10.00 per hour plus copying charges of $0.15 per page, with no separate postage charges. This purchase order supersedes the prior fiscal year contract (C5C2C5) and establishes the terms for ongoing medical records acquisition support to the state's child welfare litigation proceedings.
