Description
The District seeks a qualified provider to deliver in‑person audiology services to K‑12 students on an as‑needed basis, supporting individual education plans (IEPs). Services include hearing screenings, comprehensive assessments, classroom observations, recommendations for assistive devices, and reporting. The contractor must hold a Florida audiology license, supply all assessment tools, bill third‑party payors directly, and respond to emergencies within two hours. The contract is hourly (historical rate $45/hr), runs for an initial three‑year term (with one optional three‑year renewal), and requires compliance with numerous insurance, background‑screening, and record‑keeping mandates.
• Provide in‑person audiology evaluations, hearing‑aid recommendations, and classroom acoustic assessments for students with IEP‑identified needs.
• Supply all testing equipment and materials; the District only provides laptops and general supplies.
• Bill Medicaid, private insurers, or other payors directly; no reimbursement from the District for materials or travel.
• Meet licensing, staffing (Doctoral‑level audiologist), and background‑screening requirements; submit full technical and cost proposals by the April 2, 2026 deadline.
