RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #26-732-7 with Christopher John Voscopoulos, M.D., an individual, effective June 1, 2015, to amend Contract #26-732-3 (as amended by Contact Amendments #26-732-4, #26-732-5, and #26-732-6) to increase the payment limit by $135,737, from $1,530,000 to a new payment limit of $1,665,737, with no change in the original term of September 1, 2013 through August 31, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment is funded 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On September 24, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-732-3 (as amended by Amendment Agreements #26-732-4 through #26-732-6) with Christopher John Voscopoulos, M.D. for the provision of anesthesiology services and critical care provider at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers (CCRMC), for the period from September 1, 2013 through August 31, 2016. At the time of negotiations, the payment limit was based on target levels of utilization. However, the utilization during the term of the agreement was higher than originally anticipated due to increased caseload.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-732-7 will allow the Contractor to provide additional anesthesiology services at CCRMC through August 31, 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, Contractor will not be paid for additional services provided in good faith.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
