RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #77-015-5 with Golden State Dermatology Associates Inc., a corporation, effective April 1, 2023, to amend Contract Agreement #77-015-4, to include facial gender affirming surgery rates to the compensation page, with no change in the original payment limit of $1,200,000, and no change in the original term of April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will not impact the payment limit of the contract; however, the compensation page will be modified to include new rates for the additional services.

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide certain specialized dermatology and otolaryngology services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. This contractor has been in the CCHP Provider Network providing these services since April 1, 2016.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On March 8, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #77-015-4 with Golden State Dermatology Associates Inc., in an amount not to exceed $1,200,000 for the provision of dermatology and otolaryngology medical specialty services for the CCHP members and County recipients for the period April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2025.

Due to an increased need for facial gender affirming surgery services, the Division is requesting this contract be amended to allow for an additional level of medical specialty services for CCHP members and County recipients.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #77-015-5 will allow the contractor to provide facial gender affirming services through March 31, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract amendment is not approved, CCHP members would not have access to additional levels of specialty services in Contra Costa County under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan memberships.
