RECOMMENDATION(S):

ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21207 to add one (40/40) Account Clerk - Advanced Level (JDTD) position to the Emergency Medical Services Division of the Health Services Department.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Upon approval, this action would result in a total annual cost of $84,819.78 associated with adding one position of Account Clerk - Advanced Level. This action will be offset by the increase in fees and absorbed by the Hospital Enterprise Fund EMS 6543.

BACKGROUND:

The Emergency Medical Services Division (EMS) is requesting to create one permanent full-time Account Clerk - Advanced Level position. This position will be utilized to create and support Finance, Purchasing and grant tracking procedures relative to the operations of the EMS agency and its various programs. The incumbent will use accounting principles to assist the EMS Director in budget tracking and reporting. Assignments will include: collection and reporting of Measure H funds; implementation and maintenance of QuickBooks accounting software for office expenditures and tracking of purchases for Hospital Preparedness Program and other grants, as well as purchases for the Contra Costa Medical Reserve Corps; preparation of fiscal reports for revenues, expenditures, pre-audit and audit purposes; and analyzing current budget and purchasing procedures and developing improved intra-unit processes.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this action is not approved, support to Finance, Purchasing, grant tracking, the Hospital Preparedness Program, and the Contra Costa Medical Reserve Corps will be limited. Budget tracking and reporting, fiscal reports on revenues, expenditures, pre-audits and audits, and analyzing the current budget will be delayed.
