Greene County approves licensing agreement with Boundtree Medical for ambulance inventory

The Greene County Board of Commissioners voted to approve a licensing agreement with Boundtree Medical LLC intended to standardize and track medical inventories on the county's ambulance units. Marvin (County Attorney) recommended the agreement and asked the board to authorize the county president to finalize remaining language and sign the contract.

The agreement is designed to maintain exact records of what is on each rolling unit so county crews can verify that trucks meet minimum equipment standards. "This licensing agreement benefits the ambulance service...it's the means by which each of the rolling units' inventories are maintained so that there's always an exact knowledge of what's in, what's out," Marvin said, adding the county has contracted with the company previously and this would be the third contract.

Commissioners raised questions about a rebate arrangement and whether county purchasing would meet any thresholds for a rebate. Ambulance staff explained most routine medical supplies come through the vendor and that better inventory tracking reduces time spent re-stocking trucks and improves disaster readiness. After discussion, Unidentified Speaker 1 moved to approve the agreement, the motion was seconded, and the board approved the measure by voice vote.

The county did not record a roll-call tally in the transcript; approvals were recorded as voice votes. The agreement was described as operational rather than changing service protocols; final language edits were delegated to the county president for signature.
