On November 3, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #77-255-1 with Suncrest Hospice San Jose, LLC in an amount not to exceed $900,000 for the provision of hospice services for CCHP members for the period December 1, 2020 through November 30, 2023.

If this contract is not approved, certain specialized hospice health care services for CCHP members will not be provided by this contractor, which may delay services to CCHP members.
