CODE: C TYPE: CONSENT PUBLIC NO
HEARING:
SUBJECT: (ALL)Authorize an Amendment to City Secretary Contract 54108 with Front Line Mobile
Health, PLLC to Provide Comprehensive Post COVID-19 Physicals for City Employees to
Increase the Total Amount of Compensation from $471,750.00 to$589,687.00 for the
Initial Term Only
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize an amendment to City Secretary Contract 54108 with
Front Line Mobile Health, PLLC to provide comprehensive post COVID-19 physicals for all city employees
to increase the total amount of compensation from $471,750.00 to$589,687.00 for the initial term only.
DISCUSSION:
The Fire and Human Resources Departments request funds to provide post COVID-19 physicals for all city
employees to assess and identify any lingering or chronic effects of the infection after recovery from the
acute phase. Fire currently has Frontline Mobile Health under contract to provide health services for
firefighters such as physicals, workers compensation return to work evaluations, etc.As we continue to
learn about lingering and possible long-term effects of COVID-19, it is important to ensure adequate
recovery prior to the often stressful and strenuous duties required of many occupations.
Studies have shown that COVID-19 can lead to a heart inflammation condition known as Myocarditis, which
can decrease the ability of the heart to pump blood. This condition can cause heartbeat abnormalities, heart
failure, and even sudden death. People in strenuous occupations are much more susceptible to the health
effects of Myocarditis.
To date, a total of 307 personnel city-wide have tested positive for COVID-19, we anticipate sixty percent of
those testing positive will be interested in a post COVID-19 physical exam, approximately 181 exams. The
components of this exam as well as the cost is outlined below.
Post COVID-19 physical exams will consist of:
Cardiopulmonary Exercise Test
Chest X-Ray
Lung Ultrasound looking for pleural effusion
Blood Biomarkers:
Complete Blood Count
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel
Troponin
C-Reactive Protein
Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate
Serum Uric Acid
SARS-CoV2 Total Antibody test
Medical Questionnaire
Physical Exam and medical recommendation
Cost per exam is$650.00.
Physicals would be completed through December 18, 2020. CARES Act Funding ends December 30,
2020.
An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager up to the amount allowed by
relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does not require specific City Council approval as long as
sufficient funds have been appropriated.

FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as previously
appropriated, in the Grants Operating Federal Fund for the 2020 Disaster Assistance COVID project to
support the approval of the above recommendation and authorization of the amendment. Prior to any
expenditure being incurred, the Human Resources Department has the responsibility to validate the
availability of funds.

HEARING:
SUBJECT: Authorize an Agreement with Front Line Mobile Health, PLLC to Provide Comprehensive
Health and Wellness Services in the Annual Amount Up to$471,750.00 for a One-year
Initial Term with Option to Renew Up to an Additional Four One-year Term at the City's
Sole Discretion for the Fort Worth Fire Department(ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of an agreement with Front Line Mobile
Health, PLLC to provide comprehensive health and wellness services in the annual amount up to
$471,750.00 for a one-year initial term with option to renew up to an additional four one-year term at the
City's sole discretion for the Fort Worth Fire Department.
DISCUSSION:
The Fort Worth Fire (Fire) Department approached the Purchasing Division to issue a Request for
Proposals (RFP)for comprehensive health and wellness services to the Fire Department. Specifically, The
Fire Department sought a Vendor who would provide annual physicals, medical and psychological exams
for Fire Candidates, Behavioral Health Assessments and training on health Issues and ancillary medical
services. In addition, the RFP required that the Vendor have experience providing these types of services
to Fire and Law Enforcement agencies and that their staff be appropriately licensed.
The RFP was issued on January 1, 2020, with proposals due by January 30, 2020. The RFP was
advertised in the Fort Worth Star-Telegram every Wednesday from January 1 st, 2020 through January 29,
2020. Ten (10)vendors were solicited from the purchasing vendor database system; two responses were
received.
An evaluation panel evaluated proposals received and scored the proposals based on pre-defined factors.
The evaluation team determined Front Line Mobile Health, PLLC provides the best overall solution and
recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of agreement for an initial one-year period term
with option to renew up to an additional four one-year term at the City's sole discretion.
Front Line Mobile Health, PLLC has considerable experience with providing similar services to other fire/
emergency management services departments throughout Texas including but not limited to Pflugerville,
Georgetown, Travis County, and Williamson County.
The Fire Department proposes to use grant funds (M&C 20-0090)from a 2018 Assistance to Firefighters
Grant(AFG)to pay for the initial year services, and then pay for subsequent years using General
Operations and Maintenance (O&M)funds that are currently budgeted for annual physicals with Texas
Health Huguley Inc. (M&C P-12113). The Fire Department plans to discontinue its contract with Texas
Health Huguley Inc. for annual physicals no later than the end of FY2020, in order to transition all services
to Front Line Mobile Health, PLLC as outlined above. No guarantee was made that a specific amount of
services would be required.
An administrative change order or increase may be made by the City Manager up to the amount allowed by
relevant law and the Fort Worth City Code and does not require specific City Council approval as long as
sufficient funds have been appropriated.
A waiver of the goal for MBE/SBE subcontracting requirements was requested by the Department and
approved by the M/WBE Office, in accordance with the BIDE Ordinance, because the purchase of goods or
services from source(s)where subcontracting or supplier opportunities are negligible.
Upon City Council approval, the agreement will begin upon execution and will end one year from that date.

The contract may be renewed for up to four successive one-year term at the City's option. This action does
not require specific City Council approval, provided that the City has appropriated sufficient funds to satisfy
the City's obligations during the renewal term.
This services will serve ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Director of Finance certifies that funds are available in the current operating budget, as previously
appropriated, in the Grants Operating Federal Fund to support the approval of the above recommendation
and authorization of the agreement. Prior to any expenditure being incurred, the Fire Department has the
responsibility to validate the availability of funds.
