The University awarded a contract for contrast injection products.
Bayer Healthcare LLC offers contrast injection products and accessories. Patients are injected with a contrast liquid into a vein to enhance their CT scan or x-ray examination. Contrast is commonly described as a 'dye' as it allows veins, arteries and internal organs to show up more clearly on scan images.
This purchase is exempt from the usual selection processes of the Procurement Code because the procurement expenditure is for medical supplies or medical services necessary for the delivery of care and treatment at medical, dental, or veterinary teaching facilities utilized by SIU or U of I (30 ILCS 500 / 1-13(b-5)) The medical supplies provided by Bayer HealthCare LLC have to do with direct patient care and testing. Without these types of supplies the hospital will not be able to provide the proper surgical treatment and patient care. This will result in the patient going else causing the hospital to take a loss in revenue.
