Health Department to adopt Bonterra Apricot case-management software

The Harford County Board of Estimates approved Solicitation No. HCHD 27-001 to purchase Bonterra Apricot Impact Management Enterprise case-management software and associated implementation, training and support services.

Lauren Levy of the Harford County Health Department described the software as a tool to standardize data collection, participant and service tracking, communications and outcome reporting for the department's case-management programs. The department recommended award to HCGi Hartford, Inc. (d/b/a HCGi) of Columbia, Maryland not to exceed $76,236 in year one and $48,337 for each of option years 1–3. The motion was moved by Robert Sandlass, seconded by William Bettin and approved unanimously.

The purchase is intended to centralize case-management workflows and reporting across health programs; implementation timelines and specific modules to be deployed were not detailed in the minutes.
