Washington, DC 20004
Dear Chairman Mendelson:
Enclosed for consideration and approvalbythe Councilofthe District ofColumbia is the
“Modification 1 to Contract NFPHC-RAD-23-C-0001 between Not-for-Profit Hospital
Corporation and Washington Imaging Associates ofMaryland, LLC Approval and
Payment Authorization Emergency Act of 2024”, and the “Modification 1 to Contract
NEPHCRAD-23-C-0001 between Not-for-Profit Hospital Corporation and Washington
Imaging Associates ofMaryland, LLC and Payment Authorization Emergency
Declaration Resolution of 2024”, for the provisionofprofessional medical servicesinthe
specific specialty of Radiology (“Contract”).
Council action is necessary to approve proposed Modification 1inthe amount of
$630,000.00 for six (6) months (December 31, 2023 June 30, 2024) because when
combined with the initial six (6) monthbase period contract (July 1, 2023 - December
30, 2023) in the amount of $630,000.00, the total retroactive valueofthe twelve (12)
monthbase year contract (July 1, 2023 — June 30, 2024) would be $1,260,000.00. As
evidenced by the recommendation to change vendors, initial negotiations and
contract/approval planning discussions, and the ongoing uninterrupted performanceofthe
Parties, this vital clinical engagement is intended to continue through the Hospital’s
closure. Unfortunately, there was an inadvertent delay in completing the required
documentation to do so. Once realized, all involved worked as quickly as possible to
rectify the situation and submit the retroactive legislative package to Council for review.
In addition, the Hospital instituted several safeguards tomitigate possible reoccurrence
during this wind down and closure period. It is important that UMC isableto fully pay
this key vendorforthe work that italready has performed because its ongoing services
are essential to the operation ofthe hospital.
As always, I am available to discuss any questions you may have regarding this
submittal. Inorderto facilitate aresponse to any questions you may have, please have
your staff contacmet at (202) 574-6611. I look forward to a favorable consideration on
this contract.

any significant program changes reflected in the proposed contract:
This Contract is for the provision of Radiology services, for a period from July 1, 2023 to
June 30, 2024.
(D) The selection process, including the number of offerors, the evaluation criteria, and the
evaluation results, including price, technical or quality, and past performance
components:
The contract was sole sourced under 27 DCMR 4618 because a prompt change in the
vendor for radiology services was needed to avoid a gap and secure these services during
the wind down/ closure period.
(E) A description of any bid protest related to the award of the contract, including
whether the protest was resolved through litigation, withdrawal of the protest by the
protestor, or voluntary corrective action by the District. Include the identity of the
protestor, the grounds alleged in the protest, and any deficiencies identified by the
District as a result of the protest:
There were no protests associated with this procurement.
(F) The background and qualifications of the proposed contractor, including its
organization, financial stability, personnel, and performance on past or current
government or private sector contracts with requirements similar to those of the
proposed contract:
Washington Imaging Associated of Maryland, LLC d/b/a Progressive Radiology is the
largest radiologist owned and operated medical imaging practice in the Maryland and
Washington, D.C. area. They are the leading provider of outpatient diagnostic imaging
services in Maryland, Virginia, Washington, D.C. and northern Illinois. All of members of
this contract are board-certified radiologists have subspecialty expertise, and many are
nationally renowned educators and authors. Their radiologists have had multiple
fellowships, additional years of post-graduate clinical training, and advanced degrees
outside of medicine. They offer an academic level of expertise in a private practice setting
and have familiarity with UMC.
(G) The period of performance associated with the proposed change, including date as of
which the proposed change is to be made effective:
July 1, 2023 to June 30, 2024, effective July 1, 2023, should Council approve of the

the Council has not provided approval, disaggregated by each proposed change if
more than one proposed change has been aggregated for Council review:

(I) The aggregate dollar value of the proposed changes as compared with the amount of
the contract as awarded:

contract base was exercised for $630,000.00
(J) The date on which the contracting officer was notified of the proposed change:
June 8, 2024
(K) The reason why the proposed change was sent to Council for approval after it is
intended to take effect:
As evidenced by the recommendation to change vendors, initial negotiations and
contract/approval planning discussions, and the ongoing uninterrupted performance of the
Parties, this vital clinical engagement was intended to continue through the Hospital’s
closure. Unfortunately, there was an inadvertent delay in completing the required
corresponding documentation to do so in a timely manner. Once realized, all involved
worked as quickly as possible to rectify the situation and submit this retroactive legislative
package to Council. To mitigate possible reoccurrence, especially for key services during
this wind down and closure period, the Hospital also instituted several safeguards across
various departments. It is important that UMC is able to fully pay this key vendor for the
work that it already has performed because its ongoing services are essential to the operation
of the hospital.
(L) The reason for the proposed change:
To exercise the remaining six (6) months of the base year (Proposed Modification 1)
retroactive to December 31, 2023, as further described herein.

certification that the subcontracting plan meets the minimum requirements of the Act
and the dollar volume of the portion of the contract to be subcontracted, expressed
both in total dollars and as a percentage of the total contract amount:
UMC has worked diligently with DC Department of Small and Local Business
Development (DSLBD) to find local Vendors to provide these services. There wasn’t a
3
 Certified Business Enterprise (CBE) that provides Radiology services. There was not
subcontracting plan due the critical need and highly specialized nature of the services to be
provided under this proposed Contract, so a subcontracting plan and waiver were not
obtained before the contract execution. (Per DSLBD, once a contract is exercised, a waiver
cannot be provided.) UMC continues to make best efforts to create and maintain
opportunities for small, local, and disadvantaged businesses at UMC across all areas of the
hospital and looks forward to working with the community and applicable agencies to
improve in this area until the facility closes
(O) Performance standards and the expected outcome of the proposed contract:
The Contractor's performance will be monitored by the Not-for-Profit Hospital Corporation
CEO and Chief Medical Officer. The performance standards are as outlined in the proposed
Contract and as required by applicable local, federal, industry, and licensing entities.
(P) The amount and date of any expenditure of funds by the District pursuant to the
contract prior to its submission to the Council for approval:
The amount of funds expended under the Contract prior to submission is $1,050,000.00

schedule approved by the District; or (2) a certification that the contractor will be
current with its District taxes after the District recovers any outstanding debt as
provided under D.C. Official Code § 2-353.01(b):

has worked out and is current with a payment schedule approved by the federal
government:
The proposed contractor has certified its compliance.
(U) The status of the proposed contractor as a certified local, small, or disadvantaged
business enterprise as defined in the Small, Local, and Disadvantaged Business
4
 Enterprise Development and Assistance Act of 2005, as amended, D.C. Official Code §
2-218.01 et seq.:
