B 26-0357 Legislature · 26th Council Period (2025-2026)

Modification Nos. 1, 2, and 3 to Contract NFPHC-OPS-23-C-00059 between the Not-for-Profit Hospital Corporation and Morrison Management Specialists, Inc. Approval and Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2025

This bill (B 26-0357) approves three contract modifications totaling $1,144,733 for food and nutrition services provided by Morrison Management Specialists, Inc. to United Medical Center (the Not-for-Profit Hospital Corporation). The modifications cover retroactive payments for services from August 2024 through April 2025, addressing delays in Cedar Hill's opening ($53,618), inflation-driven food costs ($93,466), and extending the contract period. The emergency approval is required because United Medical Center must dissolve by September 30, 2025, and needs Council authorization before that deadline to settle payments. The bill does not create new policy but authorizes payment for existing services under the contract.
