RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21781 to add one (1) permanent full-time Health Services Administrator Level C (VANH) position at salary plan grade and level ZB2-1723 ($6,315 - $7,694) in the Health Services Department. (Represented)

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this request has an annual cost of approximately $149,880 with estimated pension costs of $32,777 already included. The entire cost is 100% offset by Medi-Cal Waiver funds.

BACKGROUND:

The Department of Health Care Services and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services reached a conceptual agreement on the California Medicaid Waiver Program which will result in the strengthening of public health care. The core elements of the agreement include delivery system transformation and alignment incentive programs for district/municipal hospitals known as PRIME (Public hospital Redesign and Incentives in Medi-Cal) and Whole Person Care Pilot Program which is a county-based voluntary program which is designed to provide a more integrated care and improved health outcomes for high risk populations. The Heath Services Department is requesting to add a Health Services Administrator Level C position to manage and coordinate these multi-million dollar programs by building upon the success of the 2010 Delivery System Reform Incentive Program (DSRIP) and launching the Whole Person Care Program (WPCP).

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, there will not be adequate staff to manage the DSRIP and WPCP programs which will impact patient care services to vulnerable population, and the Department will also lose the funding available for these programs.
