Bids opened for jail health services; multiple proposals forwarded to administration and sheriff
Summary
The county opened sealed proposals for jail health services and received proposals from Southern Health Partners, Core Care Incorporated and JK Services; the board referred the bids to administration and the sheriff for review.
Hart County opened sealed proposals July 22 for inmate health services at the county jail. Presenters read summaries of three proposals: Southern Health Partners (annual base price reported in the bid summary), Core Care Incorporated (detailed line‑item budget), and JK Services (hourly‑rate proposal).
Southern Health Partners submitted a proposal describing 12‑hour nursing coverage seven days per week, telehealth support and a listed annual base price in its cover summary. Core Care provided a full line‑item annual budget including personnel, medical supplies, pharmaceuticals and management fees. JK Services submitted hourly rates for medical staff and ancillary services.
The chair moved and the commission voted to forward the proposals to county administration and the sheriff’s office for evaluation and recommendation.
What happens next: Administration and the sheriff’s office will review the proposals, check references and deliver a recommendation to the board for contract award at a future meeting.
