RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #74–417-4 with Gary Scott Nye, M.D., a self-employed individual, in an amount not to exceed $174,720 to provide outpatient psychiatric services, for the period from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% by Mental Health Realignment. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

For a number of years the County has contracted with Medical, Dental and Mental Health Specialists to provide specialized professional services that are not otherwise available in its Hospital and Health Centers.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On December 10, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-417-3 with Gary S. Nye, MD for the period from January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2014, for the provision of professional outpatient psychiatric services for adults in West Contra Costa County.

Approval of Contract #74-417-4 will allow Contractor to continue to provide outpatient psychiatric services for adults in West Contra Costa County through December 31, 2015.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County’s clients will not have access to Contractor’s professional outpatient psychiatric services, which may result in a reduction in the overall level of service to the community.
