RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #27-579-4 with Bay Area Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology Associates Medical Group, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $400,000, to provide Radiology and Oncology services for Contra Costa Health Plan members, for the period from April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded Contra Costa Health Plan Enterprise Fund II. Costs depend upon utilization. As appropriate, patients and/or third-party payors will be billed for services. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

The Health Plan has an obligation to provide certain specialized professional health care services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County.

On April 16, 2013 the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #27-579-3 with Bay Area Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology Associates Medical Group, Inc. for the period from April 1, 2013 through March 31, 2015, for the provision of Radiology and Oncology services for Contra Costa Health Plan members.

Approval of Contract #27-579-4 will allow the Contractor to continue providing radiology and oncology services through March 31, 2017. The County’s standard indemnification provision has been deleted, and the County’s standard insurance provision has been modified to include higher coverage limits.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved Contra Costa Health Plan members and County recipients will not receive services from this contractor.
