ACTION
Fire Fighter Cancer Screenings. Adopt Resolution 13572 to:
1. authorize, approve and direct the Mayor to execute, on behalf of the city. Professional 
Services Contract No. 2026-004-COS with Vincere Physicians Group, PLLC, to provide fire 
fighter cancer screening services.
2. authorize the City Manager or designee to execute any other documents and take such other 
actions as are necessary to carry out the intent of this Resolution.
BACKGROUND
In 2021, the Scottsdale Fire Department was awarded a grant from the Federal Emergency 
Management Agency (FEMA) to support firefighter cancer screenings. The acceptance of this grant 
was formaliy authorized by Resolution No. 12592 on September 13, 2022. These screenings proved 
to be impactful, identifying significant cancers among those who participated.
In a 2022 report, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (lARC) classified the 
occupational exposure of firefighters as “carcinogenic to humans” (Group 1)—the highest level of 
evidence indicating a substance or exposure causes cancer. This Group 1 classification 
underscores the serious health risks firefighters face and has prompted increased action across the 
fire service. Departments nationwide are now prioritizing further research, advocating for advanced 
cancer detection technologies, and improving access to early diagnosis and treatment options.
ANALYSIS & ASSESSMENT
Cancer is the leading cause of death among firefighters, responsible for approximately one-third of 
firefighter fatalities. Due to occupational exposures, firefighters face significantly higher risks of 
developing various cancers. They are not only more likely to be diagnosed with cancer than the 
general population, but they are also diagnosed at younger ages and experience higher mortality 
rates.

City Council Report | Fire Fighter Medical Examinations
Among male firefighters, prostate cancer is the most common, accounting for nearly one-third of all 
cancer cases. Lung cancer, the leading cause of cancer-related deaths in firefighters, represents 
12.1% of cases. Melanoma accounts for 8%, with firefighters facing more than a 50% increased risk 
compared to the general population. For female firefighters, breast cancer is the most prevalent, 
also making up nearly one-third of cases.
Current national screening guidelines are inadequate for the unique risks firefighters face. Many are 
diagnosed before they even qualify for routine screenings. For example, 10.7% of firefighter lung 
cancer cases occur in individuals under 50—an age below all national screening recommendations. 
Furthermore, several high-risk cancers, such as renal and pancreatic, lack routine screening 
protocols altogether.
Whole-body MRI has emerged as a powerful tool for early cancer detection. It can identify cancers in 
the brain, head and neck, thyroid, lungs, kidneys, bladder, prostate, breast, and uterus—many of 
which are typically diagnosed only at advanced stages. Despite its effectiveness, whole-body MRI is 
not covered by insurance, even though it remains one of the most efficient diagnostic tools available.
The financial burden of cancer is substantial and growing. In the first year after diagnosis, estimated 
spending averages:
• 
$28,108 for prostate cancer*
• 
$34,979 for breast cancer*
• 
$68,293 for lung cancer*
• 
$66,523 for colorectal cancer*
(National Cancer Institute “Cancer Trends Progress Report”, adjusted to the 2020 U.S. dollar)
These figures do not include current healthcare inflation, indirect costs such as time away from work, 
loss of experienced personnel, and the investment in firefighter training. Clearly, a shift 
toward prevention, early detection, and proactive screening is not only a health imperative but also a 
financially sound strategy.
Despite advancements in personal protective equipment and decontamination protocols, cancer 
continues to claim more firefighter lives than any other cause. The Scottsdale Fire Department 
(SFD) prioritizes the health and wellness of its members. However, the only remaining Priority 1 
activity needed to complete a comprehensive Wellness and Fitness Program is a cancer screening 
initiative that aligns with NFPA 1582 standards.
Early detection not only improves outcomes and reduces treatment costs but also allows firefighters 
to return to work sooner. Moreover, with cancer becoming an increasingly common concern, a 
robust screening program can help reduce anxiety, support mental well-being, and enhance 
both recruitment and retention.
The Vincere Cancer Center, located right here in our city, has a proven track record of working with 
fire service organizations. Their expertise in firefighter-related cancers, combined with exceptional 
customer service and case management, makes them an ideal partner. Vincere is also well-versed 
in Arizona’s Presumptive Cancer Laws and collaborates effectively with Risk Management on 
workers’ compensation claims.
Their screening protocols—already in use by other Valley fire departments—have successfully 
detected early-stage cancers in numerous firefighters. The knowledge, experience, and dedication

City Council Report | Fire Fighter Medical Examinations
Vincere brings to this partnership will be a tremendous asset to the health and safety of our 
firefighters.
SFD will use a cooperative contract, as permitted by Sec. 2-191 of Scottsdale's Procurement Code, 
to obtain these services from Vincere. SFD’s contract will be based off of the City of Tempo’s 
Contract Number T23-039-01, which Tempo awarded to Vincere on October 21, 2022, after 
conducting a request for proposals.
RESOURCE IMPACTS
Available funding
There is sufficient funding in the Fire Department’s FY 2025/26 operating budget from savings in 
medical exam fund to screen one-third of eligible firefighters on a staggered three-year rotation. 
Funding availability is dependent on the varying cost of medical exams per individual, based on the 
types of tests required.
Workload Impact
No additional staff required
Future Budget Implications
The Department has requested continuous funding to adopt a three-year rotational screening 
schedule for eligible firefighters, with a portion screened each year. If budget request for firefighter 
cancer screening is denied for future funding, the department will cease the program.
Cost Recovery Options 
None

8. INSURANCE
8.1. 
General. Contractor agrees to comply with all applicable City ordinances and state 
and federal laws and regulations. Without limiting any obligations or liabilities of 
Contractor, Contractor must purchase and maintain, at its own expense, this 
Agreement’s stipulated minimum insurance with insurance companies properly 
licensed by the State of Arizona (admitted insurer) with an AM Best, Inc. rating of 
B ++ 6 or above or an equivalent qualified unlicensed insurer by the State of 
Arizona (non-admitted insurer) with policies and forms satisfactory to the City. 
Failure to maintain insurance as specified may result in termination of this 
Agreement at the City’s option.
8.2. 
Certificates of Insurance. A current Acord Certificate is acceptable. Failure to 
provide an appropriate Certificate of Insurance will result in rejection of your 
certificate, delay in Agreement execution, and/or termination of Agreement. 
Additionally, Certificates of Insurance submitted without referencing a Contract 
number may be subject to rejection and returned or discarded.
8.3. 
No Representation of Coverage Adequacy. By requiring the insurance stated 
in this Agreement, the City does not represent that coverage and limits will be
18810441
Page 3 of 9

adequate to protect Contractor. The City reserves the right to review any and all 
of the insurance policies and/or endorsements required by in this Agreement but 
has no obligation to do so. Failure to demand any evidence of full compliance with 
the insurance requirements stated in this Agreement or failure to identify any 
insurance deficiency does not relieve Contractor from, nor may it be construed or 
considered a waiver of, Contractor’s obligation to maintain the required insurance 
at all times during the performance of this Agreement.
8.4. 
Coverage Term. All insurance required by this Agreement must be maintained in 
full force and effect until all work or services required to be performed under the 
terms of this Agreement are satisfactorily performed, completed, and formally 
accepted by the City, unless otherwise specified in this Agreement.
8.5. 
Claims Made. In the event any insurance policies required by this Agreement are 
written on a “claims made” basis, coverage shall continue uninterrupted throughout 
the term of this Agreement by keeping coverage in force using the effective date 
of this Agreement as the retroactive date on ail “claims made” policies. The 
retroactive date for exclusion of claims must be on or before the effective date of 
this Agreement and can never be after the effective date of this Agreement. Upon 
completion or termination of this Agreement, the “claims made” coverage shall be 
extended for an additional three (3) years using the original retroactive date, either 
through purchasing an extended reporting option, or by continued renewal of the 
original insurance policies. Submission of annual Certificates of Insurance, citing 
the applicable coverages and provisions specified herein, shall continue for three 
(3) years past the completion or termination of this Agreement.
8.6. 
Policy Deductibles and/or Self-Insured Retentions. The policies stated in these 
requirements may provide coverage which contains deductibles or self-insured 
retention amounts. Any deductibles or self-insured retention are not applicable to 
the policy limits provided to the City. Contractor is solely responsible for any 
deductible or self-insured retention amount. The City, at its option, may require 
Contractor to secure payment of any deductible or self-insured retention by a 
surety bond or irrevocable and unconditional Letter of Credit.
8.7. 
Use of Sub-Contractors. If any work under this Agreement is subcontracted in 
any way. Contractor must execute a written agreement with Subcontractor 
containing the same Indemnification Clause and Insurance Requirements stated 
in this Agreement protecting the City and Contractor. Contractor will be 
responsible for executing the agreement with Subcontractor and obtaining 
Certificates of Insurance verifying the insurance requirements.
8.8. 
Evidence of insurance and Requirement Endorsements. Before beginning any 
work or services under this Agreement, Contractor must furnish the City with 
Certificate(s) of Insurance, or formal endorsements as required by this Agreement, 
issued by Contractor’s insurer(s) as evidence that policies are placed with 
acceptable insurers as specified in this Agreement and provide the required 
coverage, conditions, and limits of coverage and that any coverage and provisions 
are in full force and effect. If a Certificate of Insurance is submitted as verification 
of coverage, the City will reasonably rely upon the Certificate of Insurance as 
evidence of coverage, but any acceptance and reliance will not waive or alter in 
any way the insurance requirements or obligations of this agreement. If any of the
18810441
Page 4 of 9

required policies of insurance expire during the life of this Agreement, it will be 
Contractor’s responsibility to forward renewal Certificates within 10 days after the 
renewal date containing all the aforementioned insurance provisions. Certificates
