Summary
This report requests authority to award a proprietary sole source contract to KCI Medical Canada Inc. for the supply and delivery of Vacuum Assisted Closure (V.A.C.) Therapy Systems and Services for the Long-Term Care Homes and Services Division (LTCHS) in the amount of $600,000.00 (net of all taxes) for a three (3) year period with an option to renew for two (2) additional one-year periods in the amount of $200,000.00 per year for a total of $1,000,000.00, net of all taxes. The $200,000.00 (net of all taxes) per year estimated amount is based on average past utilization and forecasted utilization.
KCI Medical Canada Inc. is the sole proprietary distributor of V.A.C. Therapy Systems and Services in Canada. KCI Medical Canada Inc. has provided fair market pricing for both product purchase and rental of V.A.C. Therapy Systems and Services.
V.A.C. Therapy Systems and Services is a medical treatment modality for treating and healing serious skin and wound conditions. V.A.C. Therapy Systems and Services is a fully funded healthcare service from the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care (MOHLTC), requiring specific, individual MOHLTC approval for each resident requiring the treatment. There is a MOHLTC requirement for long-term care homes to be able to access this treatment modality for residents who have a bona fide medical requirement. If an attending physician orders V.A.C. Therapy Systems and Services as the best possible clinical response to a skin and wound care problem, then the long-term care home is obligated to provide it. Incrementally over the last number of years, the LTCHS long-term care homes have been admitting residents with significantly more complex healthcare needs, including the need for specialized skin and wound care. As a result, the medical need for V.A.C. Therapy Systems and Services has increased.
