RECOMMENDATION(S):
CORRECT the Board Order which was approved by the Board of Supervisors on January 26, 2010, Agenda Item (C.23), contract #29-787 with Financial Marketing Concepts, Inc. (“FMC”) dba Coast2Coast Rx Card, to reflect the intent of the parties to enter into a contract for a term effective January 1, 2010 and automatically renewed every year thereafter through December 31, 2017, with no change in the original payment to County in the amount not to exceed $500,000 for the Pharmacy Discount Prescription Card Program.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this board order will result in no change in the potential estimated income payable to County up to $500,000. Contra Costa County will bear no cost as FMC pays for all expenses for the care and distribution. Implementation of the Pharmacy Discount Prescription Card Program, royalties of $0.75 per filled prescription will be received by the County from FMC and would be directed to the Health Services Department to offset funds used to provide medical services to the uninsured. The royalties will not increase the price of the prescriptions for the residents of the County.
