AM 7 to Contract 163-23.pdf

This Addendum 7 to Contract 163-23 pertains to the Idaho Division of Juvenile Corrections (IDJC) and its procurement through the MMCAP purchasing consortium for Prescription Filling & Pharmacy Services and Enhanced Clinical Services. The contract provides ongoing pharmacy services including prescription filling, chart review services, and enhanced clinical support for IDJC's Juvenile Correction Centers. The procurement was time-sensitive due to the expiration of an interim contract with Correct Rx Pharmacy Services, Inc. on September 30, 2023, with proposals originally due on September 15, 2023. The requested exemption from competitive procurement was intended to provide a six-month contract extension or until a new contract could be established through the MMCAP consortium.

The anticipated cost for the six-month extension is approximately $66,000, comprising base prescription filling services plus enhanced clinical services at an additional $1,000 per month. The incumbent vendor is Correct Rx Pharmacy Services, Inc. The State of Idaho requires all contractors to maintain commercial general liability, commercial automobile liability, and workers' compensation insurance, with the State named as an additional insured on all liability policies. The procurement method involved requesting an exemption from competitive bidding, with the Division of Purchasing Administrator retaining full discretionary authority to approve or deny the exemption request. The decision was not subject to supplier appeal, though the State offered suppliers the opportunity to submit information supporting or contradicting the exemption claim prior to the Administrator's final determination.
