RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #76-640-3 with Key MD Consulting, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $930,000, to provide part-time emergency medicine services for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) for the period from April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $930,000 over a 3-year period and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

Key MD Consulting, Inc. has been providing part-time emergency medicine services at CCRMC since April 10, 2019. In January 2020, the County received notice the legal status for this contractor changed from an individual to a for-profit corporation.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In March 2020, the County Administrator approved and Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #76-640-1 with Key MD Consulting, Inc. (formerly known as Andrew Keyser, M.D.), in an amount of $125,000 to provide part-time emergency medicine services at CCRMC, for the period April 1, 2020 through March 31, 2021.

In November 2020, the County Administrator approved and the Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract Amendment Agreement #76-640-2 with Key MD Consulting, Inc., to increase the payment limit by $75,000 from $125,000 to a new payment limit of $200,000, due to a higher volume in Emergency Room services.

Approval of Contract #76-640-3 will allow the contractor to continue to provide emergency medicine services through March 31, 2024.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, needed emergency medicine services to CCRMC patients will not be provided by this contractor.
