RECOMMENDATION(S):

RESCIND Board Action of February 7, 2023 (C.89), which pertained to a contract extension agreement with Edward Y. Tang, M.D., Inc.; and APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute Contract Extension Agreement #26-792-8 with Edward Y. Tang, M.D., Inc., effective February 15, 2023, to extend the termination date from February 28, 2023 to March 31, 2023 with no change in the original payment limit of $1,230,000, for orthopedic services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no change in the original payment of $1,230,000 funded by 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

Due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community, CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers relies on contracts to provide necessary specialty health services to its patients. CCRMC has contracted with Edward Y. Tang, M.D., Inc., for orthopedic specialty services since March 2015.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On February 4, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-792-7, with Edward Y. Tang, M.D., Inc., in an amount not to exceed $1,230,000, for the provision of orthopedic services at CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period March 1, 2020 through February 28, 2023

On February 7, 2023, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract Extension Agreement #26-792-8, with Edward Y. Tang, M.D., Inc., effective February 15, 2023, to extend the termination date from February 28, 2023 to May 31, 2023 with no change in the original payment limit of $1,230,000, for orthopedic services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers.

Due to an administrative oversight, the contract term was incorrectly stated in the department's February 7, 2023 request to the Board. The purpose of this Board Order is to correct the contract term end date to March 31, 2023, to match the contract signed by the County and the contractor.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this correction is not approved, the Board Order would not reflect the intent of the parties for contractor’s orthopedic services at CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers.
