RECOMMENDATION(S):

RATIFY the approval of the County Administrator, which approved and authorized the Health Services Department to host the Contra Costa 2020 Learning Session 2 event on October 11 - 12, 2016, which included county resources and estimated expenditure costs of $6,475 and departmental staff time for the event preparations and attendance at the training session, pursuant to Administrative Bulletin No. 114 (County and Non-County Sponsored Events and Activities).

FISCAL IMPACT:

This event was co-chaired by all Health Services Department divisions. Costs associated with the event fall under allowable expenses within the divisions' budgeted funds, and will be entriely funded by Hospital Enterprise Fund I.

BACKGROUND:

Contra Costa Health Services continues to deliver on the Affordable Care Act’s promise to maximize health care quality by actively transforming the County's health care system to better serve the needs of our community. This calls for smart realignment of all of efforts and a heightened level of coordination between disciplines, departments and divisions in Health Services. The department is holding a series of department-wide learning sessions to build understanding of how they work across the system, leveraging the strengths of every division of Health Services, to create optimal health for all.

In May 2016, the department held Contra Costa 2020 Learning Session 1, which brought together over 200 departmental staff, community partners and stakeholders for a day of shared learning and networking.

The second Contra Costa 2020 Learning Session was a two day learning session and supported the department's effort to continue to build cross-divisional collaborative learning and team work. This event was held on October 11 - 12, 2016 and provided a general learning session for a cross section of departmental staff and partners, as well as, more technical improvement team collaboration that will support the PRIME and Waiver teams over the next few years.

Due to the timing of the department's request and the Board not meeting until October 18th, after the event dates, the County Administrator granted the department an exemption to Administrative Bulletin No. 114 (County and Non-County Sponsored Events and Activities), which requires BOS approval prior to the event dates, for county sponsored events with expenditures in excess of $2,500.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the department will not have the appropriate approvals for expenditures related to a County sponsored special event pursuant to Administrative Bulletin No. 114 (County and Non-County Sponsored Events and Activities).
