RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-765-38 (State #14-90289, A01), with the Department of Health Care Services, effective September 29, 2014, to amend Standard Agreement #29-765-10 (as amended by Amendment Agreements #29-765-11 through #29-765-37), to increase the amount payable to County by $296,920 from $7,890,751, to a new total Payment Limit of $8,187,671 to make technical adjustments to the budget, and to extend the term of the agreement from September 30, 2014 through September 30, 2015.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this (Amendment) Agreement will result in an increase in funds to County from the State of California Managed Risk Medical Insurance Board, (now known as the Department of Health Care Services) for fiscal year 2014-2015. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

The County has participated in the State-funded AIM Program since January 1992. This Program provides increased access to maternity, delivery and infant care services for low income women who have neither Medi-Cal nor private health insurance coverage. Under the Agreement, the Contra Health Plan (CCHP) provides comprehensive medical care during a woman’s pregnancy and delivery, and for sixty days post-partum. The AIM Program also provides com-prehensive medical care to the baby during their first two years of life.

Approval of Standard Amendment (Agreement) #29-765-38 will allow continuous funding and extend services to Contra Costa Health Plan members and County recipients through September 30, 2015.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved the County will not be able to receive funds to support continuation of the Contra Costa Health Plan-Community Plan.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
