The Florida Department of Children and Families awarded contract C78FF7 for on-site clinical and medical coverage services across three state-operated mental health facilities. The contract, valued at $3.22 million, covers the period from July 1, 2026 through June 30, 2027, and represents a continuation of services previously provided under related purchase orders. Services are to be delivered at Florida State Hospital, Northeast Florida State Hospital, and North Florida Evaluation and Treatment Center.

The contract encompasses blanket purchase orders for multiple clinical disciplines, including psychiatric coverage, psychology services, primary care physician support, nurse practitioner services, and clinical counseling. Authorization for purchases against these orders has been granted to Dr. Oquendo, Dr. Thomas, Dr. Chan, and in one instance, Tony Reed and Mary Baker. The contract structure consolidates ten separate line items addressing specialized staffing needs across the three facilities, with quantities measured in service units and unit pricing established at one dollar per unit, resulting in a combined contract value of $3,220,000.
