    Description

    Seminole County is seeking proposals from qualified physicians to serve as the Medical Director for the Seminole County Emergency Medical Services (EMS) System. The Medical Director will provide medical oversight, clinical leadership, and direction for the County's pre-hospital EMS system while collaborating with County leadership, the Seminole County Fire Chief, and municipal Fire Chiefs to ensure the delivery of high-quality emergency medical care.

    The selected Medical Director will function as an independent contractor responsible for overseeing the clinical aspects of the EMS system, supporting continuous quality improvement, and ensuring compliance with applicable medical standards and protocols. To maintain public confidence and avoid the appearance of preferential treatment, the Medical Director must not have a direct contractual affiliation with any hospital to which Seminole County EMS providers routinely transport patients. The County seeks an experienced, collaborative leader with a demonstrated commitment to excellence in emergency medical services and patient care.

    • Proposer/Bidder’s Responsibility Regarding Confidential or Exempt Information in Proposal/Bid (required)

      Bids and Proposals are considered “public records” and shall be subject to the public disclosure regulations consistent with Chapter 119, Florida Statutes. If Bidder or Proposer considers any portion of its Bid or Proposal to contain material that is confidential or exempt from public inspection or disclosure under Chapter 119, Florida Statues, or other applicable state or federal law, then Bidder or Proposer must, simultaneously with its unredacted Bid or Proposal, provide the County with a complete separate copy of the Bid or Proposal which has redacted the portions the Bidder or Proposer asserts to be confidential and exempt from disclosure.  Only the portions of the Bid or Proposal the Bidder or Proposer claims are confidential or exempt from disclosure should be redacted and no Bid or Proposal may be redacted in its entirety.

      In submitting the redacted copy of the Bid or Proposal, at the same time as the unredacted Bid or Proposal, the Bidder or Proposer must upload it separately under Section 4.15 of this solicitation, “Confidential Files”.  The Bidder or Proposer shall also submit an index under Section 4.15 of the solicitation that specifically lists the confidential portions of the Bid or Proposal along with a thorough written description identifying each reason and statutory basis under which the Bidder or Proposer has claimed such exemption(s). 

      If the Bidder or Proposer fails to properly upload the redacted copy of the Bid or Proposal under Section 4.15 of this solicitation, “Confidential Files”, its claim of confidentiality will be considered waived upon submission of the Bid or Proposal.  If the Bidder or Proposer fails to properly identify the confidential portions of the Bid or Proposal or fails to include the statutory basis for which the claim of exemption is based, such claim of confidentiality will be waived upon submission of the Bid or Proposal.   

      If the County receives a public records request to which materials identified as confidential are responsive, the County will provide the redacted copy to the requestor.  If the public records requestor asserts a right to the redacted portions of the material, the County will notify the Bidder or Proposer that such an assertion has been made.  It is then the Bidder or Proposer’s responsibility to take the appropriate legal action to assert that the portion of the records in question are protected from disclosure under the public records law.   If the Bidder or Proposer fails to take appropriate and timely legal action to defend its claim of confidentiality, the County will release the materials that are responsive, without redaction, to the public records requestor.   

      If the County becomes subject to a demand for discovery or disclosure of materials the Bidder or Proposer claims are confidential, the County will notify the Bidder of Proposer of the demand, and thereafter it will be the responsibility of the Bidder or Proposer to take appropriate legal action to defend its claim of confidentiality.  If the Bidder or Proposer fails to take appropriate and timely legal action to defend its claim of confidentiality, the County will release the materials that are responsive, without redaction, to the public records requestor. 

      By submitting a response to this solicitation, the company agrees to defend the County in the event it is forced to litigate the public records status of the company’s documents.

    • Confidential Files

      In compliance with Chapter 119, Florida Statutes, any Bidder or Proposer that believes any portion of its Bid or Proposal is exempt from public records disclosure shall upload its redacted copy here.  In addition to the redacted copy, the Bidder or Proposer shall also upload an index that specifically lists the confidential portions of the Bid or Proposal, along with a thorough written description identifying each reason and statutory basis under which the Bidder or Proposer has claimed each exemption.

    • Worker’s Compensation Compliance Certification (required)
