FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this action has an annual cost of approximately $4,070,099 which includes pension costs of $868,910. The costs will be completely offset by Federally Qualified Health Care and third party revenues.
BACKGROUND:
The Health Services Department is requesting to add these 34 positions allocated to the newly expanded Antioch Health Center. Currently, the clinic is providing 216 hours of ambulatory care to our Contra Costa Health Plan members and County residents. Expanded services are necessary due to the increased volume and demand associated with the Affordable Care Act and the resulting increased membership in the Contra Costa Health Plan. The expansion will provide an additional 152 weekly hours equivalent to 38 four-hours of Family Practice clinics and Group clinics.
The increased capacity will allow a total of 1,386 patient visits per week with full capacity which will be implemented in thee (3) phases. These 34 positions are include in Phase One, and a subsequent request for Phase Two and Phase Three will be submitted at a later date.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this action is not approved, the Antioch Health Center will not have adequate staffing to provide increased patient care services.
