Title
Custom X-Ray Service, Inc.
Description
For $80,000.00 in payment authority for a new contract, entered on or about Feb. 1, 2020, for a term of five years, to purchase a Digital Radiology Suite for the Fire Department. The equipment is needed to remain in compliance and is used to assist Fire Department members who are required by the National Fire Protection Association's 1582 Standards on Comprehensive Occupational Program for Firefighters, to have chest radiographs taken for their physicals. The Phoenix Fire Department Health Center's current X-Ray machine is an older model and is no longer supported. Custom X-Ray Service will provide the installation, set up and training of new digital x-ray system, along with the removal of existing digital x-ray equipment. The ability to perform inhouse radiographs, for firefighter physicals and for the diagnosis and treatment of firefighter injuries, drastically reduces out of service times for our first responders and helps in expediting diagnosis, allowing firefighters to receive the treatment needed for their injuries and assisting to speed recovery.
