CONCLUSION
The proposal submitted is intended to allow the expansion of services for the county primary
care clinic without adding significant costs. Vocatus Medical Management Services has made
every effort to use its current infrastructure to lessen the expense to the county. The current
positioning of the Vocatus clinic on lmmokalee road will allow an alternative location for county
employees who live and work in that area. By utilizing existing staffVocatus will be able to
implement this program within a short time frame probably not exceeding two months and
possibly within one month. The major limitations to a timely start date would be the hiring of
the provider who will directly provide the patient care.
As stated prcviously we believe in the concept of this clinic and fully embrace its intent to
provide for the long term health of county employccs. Wc havc cvery confidcnce that this
service will be successful in these goals while also being cost effective. We hope to continue
with our excellent partnership with the county and would happily respond to any further
questions.

INTRODUCTION
Vocatus Medical Management Services has been asked to submit a proposal for revision
to the original RFP for the provision of primary medical services. Specifically we have been
asked to submit a proposal for an offsite primary care clinic to supplement the current on site
clinic. The directions given for this proposal were flexible. Therefore the proposal as submitted
is an effort to provide an effective, efficient and cost effective service.
There were several potential options in the structure of this service including types of
providers, locations and intensity. At this time the most logical structure would be to add a 0.5
FTE physician extender with appropriate physician supervision. This emulates the current
structure which has worked well for the county at a reasonable cost. At a later date if there
should be a need the half time FTE could easily be expanded. By this incremental increase
there will be less expense to the county. There is also significant flexibility in the arrangement
allowing for fairly immediate expansion at a later date if needed.
