Recommendation of the County Administrator Recommendation of Board Committee

 

RECOMMENDATIONS:

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Purchasing Agent, or designee, to execute on behalf of the Health Services Director, (1) an amendment to purchase order #27466 with Doximity, Inc. to increase the payment limit by $40,000 to a new payment limit of $130,000 and extend term through May 31, 2027; and (2) a software subscription agreement with Doximity, Inc. for staff scheduling software and services.

 

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this action will result in an additional $40,000 in expenditures for staff scheduling software and services and will be funded by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues.

 

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa Health (CCH) has been utilizing Doximity’s Amion platform for staff scheduling for over 20 years. The software provides 24/7 online viewing of daily, monthly, and specialty schedules on a web-based platform that can be accessed via computer or phone app.

 

The agreement obligates the County to indemnify Doximity, Inc. and its affiliates from and against any claims, brought against Doximity, Inc. by a third party for County’s unauthorized use of the service. The vendor’s liability under this agreement is limited to the amount paid by the County in the twelve months preceding the claim, except for breaches of confidentiality, which are capped at $2,000,000.

 

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to approve this purchase would disrupt the daily work of many users relying on the scheduling software to manage their work schedule.
