<p>The New York City Health Department ('Health Department') continues to seek proposals for the School Based Health Centers (Open-Ended) Request for Proposals (RFP) through the City's Procurement and Sourcing Solutions Portal ('PASSPort' system).</p><p>School Based Health Centers (SBHC) were established by Chapter 198 of the NYS Laws of 1978 to improve the accessibility and availability of quality comprehensive and preventive physical and mental health services to preschool, elementary, middle and secondary school students in high-risk areas of New York State. As a result of this Law, NYS Department of Health approves, licenses and monitors every SBHC in NYS. School Based Health Centers are medical health centers within the schools. They help students manage their illnesses during the school day. Because of the location, School Based Health Centers are an easy health care option for busy students with busy parents who cannot always make it to their doctors office. School-Based Health Centers have been providing primary care to students in NYC schools for over 30 years. Its been proven that School-Based Health Centers lower school absences and parents time away from work. They also lower the chance of an emergency room or hospital visit. If a child has a chronic illness, or suddenly gets sick, a School-Based Health Center at their school can assist the child with needed care.</p><p>RFP documents and additional details can be found by visiting the PASSPort Procurement Navigator at https://nyc.gov/businessopportunities and searching by EPIN: '81622P0003'.
