RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Patricia Tanquary), to execute on behalf of the County, Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-772-19 (State #04-36067, A-06) with the State of California, Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), effective July 1, 2009, to amend Agreement #29-772-13 (as amended by subsequent amendments #29-772-14 through #29-772-18), to make technical and administrative changes to the Agreement with regard to the Local Initiative with no change in the original payment limit of $317,472,000 and to extend the term from December 31, 2009 through December 31, 2010.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will reflect a change in the Budge Act Line Items and make technical and administrative changes to the Agreement for fiscal year 2009-2010 for the Medi-Cal Local Initiative. No County funds required.

BACKGROUND:

On April 26, 2005, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard Agreement #29-772-13 (as amended by subsequent Amendments #29-772-14 through #29-772-18) with the State of California, Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), for the Medi-Cal Local Initiative Health Plan, for the period from April 1, 2005 through December 31, 2009.

Approval of this Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-772-19 will make technical adjustments to the agreement, allowing the County to continue to receive reimbursement from the State and to continue to provide medical services to qualified County recipients for the Medi-Cal Local Initiative, through December 31, 2010.
