RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #26-604-11 with Michael Gynn, M.D., a self-employed individual, in an amount not to exceed $1,830,000, for the provision of general surgery services for patients at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period from January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded by Enterprise Fund I. Cost to the County depends upon utilization. As appropriate, patients and/or third party payors will be billed for services. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On January 7, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-604-9 (as amended by Amendment Agreement #26-604-10) with Michael Gynn, M.D., to provide general surgery services including consultation, training, on-call, medical and/or surgical procedures, for patients at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers (CCRMC), for the period from January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014. Approval of Contract #26-604-11 will allow the Contractor to continue to provide general surgery services, through December 31, 2017.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County’s clients will not have access to Contractor’s general surgery services, which may result in a reduction in the overall levels of service to the community.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
