On February 26, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #27-791-2 (as amended by Contract Amendment Agreements #27-791-3 and #27-791-4), with Verisk Health, Inc., for the provision of consultation and technical assistance with regard to data analysis services for Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) projects and annual reports for the period from November 1, 2012 through October 31, 2015. The Department and Contractor agreed to modifications to the County’s Standard Indemnification and General Conditions language.
