RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #26-644-21 with MGA Healthcare, Inc., a corporation, effective October 1, 2018, to amend Contract #26-644-20, to increase the payment limit by $100,000, from $300,000 to a new payment limit of $400,000, with no change in the original term of January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment is funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On January 9, 2018, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-644-20 with MGA Healthcare, Inc. to provide temporary medical staffing services including pharmacists, laboratory and radiology technicians, specialty registered nurses, other ancillary classifications and permanent placement recruitment services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Due to an increase in laboratory staffing needs the Division has requested an increase in the contract payment limit to provide additional temporary laboratory services.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-644-21 will allow the Contractor to provide additional temporary laboratory services through December 31, 2018.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers will not have access to additional temporary laboratory services.
