Modification Nos. 13 and 14 to Contract No. NFPHC-NSD-21-C-00027 between Not-for-Profit Hospital Corporation and Amergis Healthcare Staffing Inc. Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2024

This emergency act authorizes the District of Columbia to approve two contract modifications between United Medical Center and Amergis Healthcare Staffing Inc. for providing nurse staffing services in the emergency department, intensive care unit, and telemetry areas. The legislation permits the hospital to pay up to $9 million in the third option year and $3.2 million in the fourth option year for these services. By bypassing standard procurement requirements, the bill allows for immediate payment authorization to ensure continued staffing support during a critical period.
