Wexford Addendum 1 - executed.pdf

This is a Contract Addendum #1 for Medical Services Program between the Southwest Virginia Regional Jail Authority (SWVRJA) located in Abingdon, VA, and Wexford Health Sources, Inc. The addendum, dated January 2022, modifies the scope of Comprehensive Health Care Services contract to expand responsibilities. The agreement outlines that all healthcare services must be clinically appropriate and provided in accordance with generally accepted healthcare practices, industry standards, and applicable laws governing minimum standards as promulgated by the Board of Corrections and Virginia Department of Corrections Compliance Documentation for Jails.

A key provision of the addendum specifies that Wexford Health will be responsible for providing a Hepatitis B Inoculation program for SWVRJA facility staff, including administration and record keeping, at no additional cost to SWVRJA. While Wexford Health provides the testing service, SWVRJA is responsible for the cost of testing supplies and materials. Upon vaccination completion, employee medical records must be forwarded to SWVRJA Human Resources department, with Wexford Health billing SWVRJA quarterly and providing appropriate documentation for services rendered.
