RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 22538 to increase the hours of one Senior Health Education Specialist (VMWE) position #9703 from 32/40 to 40/40 at salary plan and grade level TC5-1543 ($5,885-$7,153) in Health Services Department. (Represented)

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action has an annual increase cost of approximately $28,322 with $6,539 in pension costs already included. The cost is entirely supported with CCHP Member Premium Revenues.

BACKGROUND:

The Health Services Department is requesting to increase the hours of Senior Health Education Specialist position #9703 from 32/40 to 40/40 in the Health Services Department. The increased hours will be used to complete special projects which involve the design and execution of improvement efforts, specifically ensuring that the materials developed are culturally appropriate and offering strategies for different subsets of the target groups. This incumbent has a large role in the upcoming Disparity Performance Improvement Project assigned by California Department of Health Care Services.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, the Contra Costa Health Plan within Health Services will not have adequate professional staffing to ensure state improvement plans are completed.
