RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or his designee (Patricia Tanquary), to execute on behalf of the County, the following:
A. Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-765-20 (State #04MP010, A6) with the State of California, Managed Risk Medical Insurance Board, effective January 1, 2009, to increase the Payment Limit by $565,045 from $4,536,350 to a new total Payment Limit of $5,101,395 with no change in the original term of July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2009, for County’s participation in the Access for Infants and Mothers (AIM) Program; and

B. Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-765-21 (State #06MP002, A3) with the State of California, Managed Risk Medical Insurance Board, effective January 1, 2009, to increase the Payment Limit by $616 from $2,660 to a new total Payment Limit of $3,276 with no change in the original term of July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2009, for County’s participation in the Access for Infants and Mothers (AIM) Program.

FISCAL IMPACT:

These Agreements will provide a total increase in revenue of $565,661 from the State of California, Managed Risk Medical Insurance Board, for the Access for Infants and Mothers (AIM) Program, for the period from July 1, 2004 through June 30, 2009. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

The County has participated in the State-funded AIM Program since January 1992. This Program provides increased access to maternity, delivery and infant care services for low income women who have neither Medi-Cal nor private health insurance coverage.

Under this Agreement, the Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) provides comprehensive medical care during a woman's pregnancy and delivery, and for sixty days post-partum. The AIM Program also provides comprehensive medical care to the baby during their first two years of life.

Approval of Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-765-20 and #29-765-21 will add funding to allow CCHP to continue participating in the AIM Program, through June 30, 2009.
