The document contains information about the requirements and terms for a contract with Baltimore County. The document states that the successful offeror must comply with the requirements within 15 calendar days, excluding County holidays and non-work days. The provider is also required to maintain insurance coverage and provide documentation of such insurance to the County. The document lists the County holidays, including New Year's Day, MLK Jr. Birthday, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, General Election Day (each even year), Veterans' Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. It is mentioned that Baltimore County reserves the right to extend the terms and conditions of the contract to other County agencies requiring the same commodities and services. A sub-order release will be issued against the original purchase order for confirmation of pricing, quantity, and delivery requirements. The County also reserves the right to extend the contract to public bodies, subdivisions, school districts, community colleges, colleges, and universities, including non-public schools, with mutual agreement and special requirements. However, the County assumes no authority, liability, or obligation on behalf of these entities, and all purchases and payment transactions will be made directly between the Contractor and the requesting entity. The document includes a section on compliance with the federal Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) and the Maryland Confidentiality of Medical Records Act. The Contractor is required to adhere to privacy and security requirements for protected health information and medical records under HIPAA and provide good management practices regarding health information and medical records. If the functions performed by the Contractor constitute business associate functions as defined in HIPAA, a business associate agreement must be executed. The document also mentions that the County's form contract is attached, and by submitting a proposal, the offeror accepts the terms and conditions stated in the form contract unless exceptions are submitted in writing. The offeror's acceptance or deviations from the form contract terms and conditions are considered during the evaluation and award process. If an exception alters the County's risk, liability, exposure, or the intent of the procurement, the County reserves the right to deem the offeror non-responsive.
