A-4. SETTLEMENT REGARDING NOTICE OF CLAIM FILED BY ARIZONA PHARMACY ALLIANCE Approve settlement of notice of claim filed by Arizona Pharmacy Alliance on July 15, 2011 in the amount of $172,000. A contract with Arizona Pharmacy Alliance was approved April 27, 2011 (C-86-11-077-3-00) to provide immunization training for pharmacists. That contract was later rescinded by board action on June 8, 2011 (C-86-11-093-M-00) upon discovering the contract was not properly solicited under the Maricopa County Procurement Code. However, by the time the error was discovered, Arizona Pharmacy Alliance had conducted several training classes, and had scheduled additional classes with enrollees. Arizona Pharmacy Alliance submitted an invoice for payment of providing training to pharmacist that occurred before the contract was rescinded, but those invoices could be paid. Arizona Pharmacy Alliance submitted a notice of claim for payment. This item was discussed in executive session on August 1, 2011. (C-86-12-015-S-00)
