Blanket purchase order is to cover services ordered by the Department of Health-Cahoun County…

The Florida Department of Health, Calhoun County, has awarded a blanket purchase order (Contract C78AE7) to LabCorp for laboratory testing services. The contract, effective July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027, carries a total contract value of $1,500.00 and authorizes 1,500 individual service units. The arrangement establishes a mechanism for the Department to submit laboratory test orders to LabCorp on behalf of Department clients, with the expectation that clients' insurance providers will cover the associated costs.

Under the terms of this agreement, LabCorp will bill the Department of Health at prevailing market rates applicable at the time services are rendered, with the insurance provider designated as the primary payer. Should an insurance claim be validly denied, the Department assumes secondary liability for the charges. LabCorp is required to provide documentation with each invoice substantiating the market rate at the time of service delivery, ensuring compliance with billing accuracy and transparency requirements.
