DATE: July 17, 2018
SUBJECT:
A resolution authorizing payment to Advocate Occupational Health up to the amount of $200,000 annually for providing occupational health services.
PURPOSE:
To obtain approval for payment up to the amount of $200,000 annually to Advocate Occupational Health for occupational health services.
BACKGROUND:
Effective July 25, 2018, Northwestern Medicine will no longer be providing occupational health services and will be closing its facilities. Services include pre-employment physicals, contractual annual exams, statutory drug testing, workers compensation primary and follow up treatment and other required medical services. To date, Northwestern Medicine has been providing these services to the city.
DISCUSSION:
After careful consideration and assessment of several occupational health services facilities, the City determined that Advocate Occupational Health was the best facility to meet the size and scope of the City's operational needs. Advocate Occupational Health has a facility on the east side and west side of Aurora, allowing for a more comprehensive ability to serve the city as well as offering greater convenience to employees.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
N/A
RECOMMENDATIONS:
That the City Council approve the resolution to pay Advocate Occupational Health up to the amount of $200,000 annually for occupational health services.
