EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Request that the Board of County Commissioners approves the final payment in the
amount of $12,163.75 to Sunshine Pharmacy for prescription medication to medically
needy clients in the Social Services Program.
OBJECTIVE: To make final payment to Sunshine Pharmacy in the amount of $12,163,75 for
prescription services rendered to qualified medically needy clients in the Social Services
Program,
CONSIDERATIONS: The Housing and Human Services Department's Social Services
Program assists citizens of Collier County with the purchase of medically prescribed drugs,
Clients must meet stringent eligibility criteria including income, asset limits, legal status, and
County residency before assistance is given, Most clients are frail and chronically ill with little
or no Income.
On April 14, 2008, the County began a contract with Albertson's LLC for prescription services.
This required a transition period from the previous provider, Sunshine Pharmacy, The
implementation timeframe was estimated to be 90 days, and during this transition period, the
Board approved a waiver of bid process for payment to Sunshine Pharmacy in the amount of
$50,000. This was approved April 8, 2008, as item l6E3, The final invoice has been received
and has exceeded the previously approved limit by $3,526,89, The overage is due to the fact that
nearly 70% of the prescription renewals were filled during the first week of the month and
therefore did not go to the new vendor which began April 14, Staff is seeking approval to pay
the April 2008 invoice for pharmaceutical expenses incurred from Sunshine Pharmacy from
April], 2008 through April 13, 2008, in amount of $]2,163,75, which includes the $3,526,89
overage referenced above.
Approval of this document by the County Manager is subject to formal ratification by the Board
of County Commissioners. If the decision by the County Manager is not ratified by that Board,
this document shall be enforceable against Collier County only to the extent authorized by law in
the absence of such rati fication by that Board,
FISCAL IMPACT: Funding for pharmaceutical expenditures in the amount of $575,000 was
approved in the FY 2008 Department of Housing and Human Services Client Assistance budget
001-155930,
LEGAL CONSIDERATION: This matter is legally sufficient for Board action. It should be
noted that failure by the County to pay this matter would subject the County to a claim by
Sunshine, who provided the prescriptions, -JAK
GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no impact on the Growth Management Plan.
RECOMMENDATION: That the Board of County Commissioners approves the final payment
to Sunshine Pharmacy in the amount of$12,163.75,
