RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Extension Agreement #23-706-2 with La Clinica De La Raza, Inc., a non-profit corporation, to extend the termination date from December 31, 2021 to June 30, 2022 with no change in the original payment limit of $780,280, to continue to provide COVID-19 outreach, mobile testing and vaccine administration in underserved areas of the County.

FISCAL IMPACT:

None, there is no change in the original payment limit of $780,280 and is funded 100% by the Federal American Rescue Plan Act.

BACKGROUND:

On March 10, 2020, the Board of Supervisors requested that the Governor proclaim a State of Emergency in Contra Costa County (Gov. Code Section 8625) due to COVID-19. The Health Department must use all available preventative measures to combat the spread of COVID-19 which includes outreach, testing and vaccine administration. The Department must enter into contracts for these services and competitive bidding requirements are suspended to the extent necessary to address the effects of COVID-19.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

This contract establishes a relationship between Contra Costa County Health Services Department (HSD) and La Clinica De La Raza that will enable COVID-19 mobile testing and vaccine administration as well as outreach program support to provide services to underserviced and/or unisured Contra Costa County community members.

On February 9, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-706 with La Clinica De La Raza, Inc.. in an amount not to exceed $780,280, for the provision of COVID-19 outreach, mobile testing and vaccine administration for residents of Contra Costa County, for the period from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021. In August 2021, the County Administrator approved Administrative Amendment #23-706-1 to correct a typo in the dosage rate.

Approval of Contract Extension Agreement #23-706-2 will allow the contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this extension is not approved, the contractor will not continue to provide services and the most vulnerable Contra Costa County residents will continue to be at risk for COVID-19.
