RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #23-218-11 with Firstsource Solutions USA, LLC, a limited liability company, effective August 1, 2012, to amend Contract #23-218-10, to increase the payment limit by $700,000, from $700,000 to a new payment limit of $1,400,000, with no change in the original term of July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2013.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment is funded 100% by Enterprise Fund I. Contractor is paid on a commission basis for amounts it actually collects on inpatient and outpatient Medi-Cal claims. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On July 26, 2011, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-218-10 with Firstsource Solutions USA, LLC, for the period from July 1, 2011 through June 30, 2013, for consultation and technical assistance with regard to Medi-Cal eligibility, collection issues, and administrative appeals for inpatient and outpatient Medi-Cal claims.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #23-218-11 will allow the Contractor to provide additional services through June 30, 2013.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the County would lose money from not collecting on additional inpatient and outpatient Medi-Cal claims.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
