RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #76-794-1 with Amir Manuchehry, M.D., an individual, effective February 1, 2023, to amend Contract #76-794, to increase the payment limit by $60,000, from $190,000 to a new payment limit of $250,000, with no change in the original term of September 1, 2022 through February 28, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in additional annual expenditures of up to $60,000 and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

Due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community, Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers relies on contractors to provide necessary specialty health services to its patients. CCRMC has contracted with Amir Manuchehry, M.D. for anesthesiology specialty services since September 2022.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In August 2022, the County Administrator approved and the Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #76-794 with Amir Manuchehry, M.D., in an amount not to exceed $190,000, for the provision of anesthesiology services at CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period from September 1, 2022 through February 28, 2023.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #76-794-1 will allow the contractor to be paid for additional services provided in good faith during the month of February 2023.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the necessary specialty anesthesiology services needed for patient care will not be available or will create increased wait times due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community.
