RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Director of Risk Management, or designee, to execute a contract with Contra Costa County Schools Insurance Group in an amount not to exceed $210,410 to perform medical billing reviews for the period effective January 1, 2023 through December 31, 2023.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% funded by the Workers' Compensation Internal Service Fund.
BACKGROUND:
Contra Costa County Schools Insurance Group (CCCSIG) and Contra Costa County Risk Management created a joint partnership public entity in 2003 so that CCCSIG could provide workers' compensation medical billing reviews for Risk Management at a lower annual review cost than other providers. This contract allows the County to continue receiving the same services at the lowest cost.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
The County would not be able to maintain compliance of the California Department of Industrial Relations.
