An agreement with a qualified vendor is needed to provide health screening services including a comprehensive medical physical/examination for eligible Fire personnel in order to provide the City’s contractually negotiated annual medical examination benefit paid for by the City. The City’s most recent incumbent for health screening services is Life Extension Clinics, Inc. D/B/A Life Scan Wellness Centers, but the one-year contract expired.

The City of Hollywood and Life Extension Clinics, Inc. d/b/a Life Scan Wellness Centers permit other agencies to utilize this contract currently in effect through October 15, 2022.
Upon expiration of the current renewal term, a final 1-year renewal option will remain. |

Cumulative cost for the services may exceed $25,000 but will not exceed the amount authorized in the FY 2022 budget.
