RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #77-314-1 with East Bay Cardiovascular and Thoracic Associates Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $4,000,000, to provide cardiothoracic and vascular surgery services to Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) members and County recipients for the period April 1, 2023 through March 31, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $4,000,000 over a two-year period and will be funded 100% by CCHP Enterprise Fund II revenues. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide certain specialized cardiothoracic and vascular surgery health care services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. This contractor has been a part of the CCHP Provider Network for several years providing cardiothoracic and vascular surgery services through a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) and was required to convert the existing MOU into a County contract in April of 2021.

On February 2, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #77-314 with East Bay Cardiovascular and Thoracic Associates Inc., in an amount not to exceed $1,600,000, for the provision of cardiothoracic and vascular surgery services for CCHP members for the period April 1, 2021 through March 31, 2023.

On April 27, 2021, a clarification Board action (item,pC.62), was approved to reflect the intended payment limit of $2,400,000 as agreed upon by the County and the contractor.

Approval of Contract #77-314-1, will allow the contractor to continue providing cardiothoracic and vascular surgery services to CCHP members and County recipients through March 31, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, certain specialized cardiothoracic and vascular surgery health care services for CCHP members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County will not be provided.
