PORT ANGELES — Olympic Medical Center commissioners approved capital equipment purchases and maintenance agreements totaling just more than $732,200 at their monthly work session Wednesday.

They also authorized a three-year, $145,000 contract that would cut costs for licensing Microsoft software programs installed on all hospital computers.

The equipment purchases and maintenance agreements, all of which had been budgeted for 2004, include:

* Six anesthesia machines for operating rooms, totaling $180,098.

* Three computed radiography readers, targeted for the imaging centers, for a total cost of $425,989.

* A three-year maintenance agreement for linear accelerator machines, to be used in radiography, totaling $52,080.

* A five-year, $74,090 maintenance agreement for three imaging/ultrasound machines, and software to operate the imaging systems.

The board also voted to authorize Chief Executive Officer Mike Glenn to sign a $507,777 contract with Stirret & Johnson Inc. for a water supply and distribution modification project.

The project had received the commissioners’ approval when they adopted their 2004 operating budget.
