About this file

This is an Insurance Requirements Exhibit (Exhibit B) document issued by Sacramento County for use in agreements resulting from a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) for correctional healthcare services. The exhibit establishes mandatory insurance coverage requirements that any selected contractor must procure and maintain for the duration of the contract. The contractor must obtain insurance covering claims for injury to persons or damage to property arising from performance of work, with the County Risk Manager having authority to approve self-insurance programs as alternatives to traditional policies.

The minimum scope of insurance required includes Commercial General Liability of $2,000,000 per occurrence and aggregate; Automobile Liability of $1,000,000 per accident; Workers' Compensation with Statutory Limits and Employer's Liability of $1,000,000 per accident; Professional Liability (Errors and Omissions) of $2,000,000 per occurrence and aggregate; and Cyber Liability of $2,000,000 per occurrence and aggregate. All policies must include specific endorsements designating the County and its officials as additional insureds on a primary and non-contributory basis, include notice of cancellation provisions, and contain waivers of subrogation. Insurance must be placed with carriers holding an A.M. Best's rating of A:VII or higher. The contractor must furnish certificates of insurance and required endorsements before work commences and provide renewal evidence ten days prior to each policy anniversary date. Any failure to maintain required insurance constitutes a material breach of the agreement, and the County reserves the right to modify requirements based on the nature of risk or other special circumstances.

EXHIBIT B: INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS

Following this page is a sample of the insurance exhibit included in Sacramento County agreements.

The types of insurance and minimum limits required for any agreement resulting from this RFQ are specified in the sample insurance exhibit. A contract negotiated following this RFQ will include the attached insurance exhibit.

Your organization’s proposal package should include a standard certificate of insurance showing current coverages. If your organization’s current insurance coverage does not conform to the requirements of the attached insurance exhibit, do not obtain additional insurance until a contract is offered. You must, however, provide written evidence, which must be in the form of a letter from your insurance broker or agent that you will be able to have the required insurance in place before a contract is signed and services commence.

If during the proposal screening for this RFQ, the County finds a problem with the proposers’ insurance submission, the proposer will have until the date shown in the RFQ timeline to submit any required documentation to the county. Proposers will be notified via e-mail regarding any deficiencies in the insurance submission.

Certificate holder or additional insured proof is not required as part of this RFQ.

If your organization receives a formal contract offer at the completion of this RFQ process, and your organization’s current insurance coverage does not meet the insurance requirements of the contract, you must provide proof of the required coverage at the time required by the County or the County has the right to enter into negotiations with the proposers who submitted the next highest-rated proposal, or issue a new RFQ.

In general, the best course is to provide the sample exhibit to your organization’s insurance agent or broker and direct him or her to provide a standard certificate of insurance to certify the coverage currently in force.
