Agreement A177032 with Availity LLC is to provide electronic data interchange (EDI) transactions services. Due to an incident with a Hennepin Health pre-processing vendor, the number of Hennepin Health transactions going through Availity has increased.
This Amendment 4 increases the NTE by $126,000. The new NTE is $258,000.
This board action request aligns with Hennepin County disparity reduction efforts to improve access to culturally specific/sensitive health services and increase community well-being.
