The Acadia Parish Police Jury voted Feb. 10 to issue a request for proposals (RFP) for 24-hour health services at the Acadia Parish Jail. The chair said the current contract costs run "about $1,000,000 close to $1000000 dollars a year," and the RFP is intended to compare options and ensure inmates receive appropriate care at responsible cost.
The motion to solicit RFPs passed following a second; the chair framed the action as due diligence on a significant annual expenditure. No vendor names, contract terms, or procurement timeline were specified during the meeting.
The jury asked staff to proceed with the solicitation process so that potential providers can compete for the contract and jurors can later review bids as part of the contract award process.
