RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #76-726-1 with Jessica C. Standish, M.D., an individual, in an amount not to exceed $650,000, to provide primary care physician services at adult and juvenile detention facilities in Contra Costa County, for the period from February 1, 2023 through January 31, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $650,000 over a 2-year period and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise fund I revenues.

BACKGROUND:

Due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community, the Health Services Department relies on contracts to provide necessary primary care physician services at its detention facilities. The County has been contracting with Jessica C. Standish, M.D., since February 2021 to provide medical care services at adult and juvenile detention facilities.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On February 9, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #76-726 with Jessica C. Standish, M.D., in an amount not to exceed $600,000, for the provision of primary care physician services at adult and juvenile detention facilities in Contra Costa County, for the period from February 1, 2021 through January 31, 2023.

Approval of Contract #76-726-1 will allow the contractor to continue providing primary care physician services through January 31, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the necessary medical care services needed for incarcerated patient care will not be available or will create increased wait times due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community.
