RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #76-701-1 with EKB Podiatry, Inc, a corporation, effective April 1, 2021, to amend Contract #76-701, to increase the payment limit by $100,000, from $150,000 to a new payment limit of $250,000, with no change in the term of August 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in an additional $100,000 in annual expenditures and will be funded as budgeted by the department in FY 2020-2021, with Hospital Enterprise Fund I funding.

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing podiatry services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Health Centers.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In August 2020, the County Administrator approved and Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #76-701 with EKB Podiatry, Inc., in an amount of $150,000, for the provision of podiatry services at CCRMC and Health Centers, for the period from August 1, 2020 through July 31, 2021.

Based on the current analysis the surgical procedure volumes have been higher than originally anticipated. Therefore, it is recommended that the contract be amended to increase the payment limit by $100,000, from $150,000 to a new total payment limit of $250,000.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #76-701-1 will allow the contractor to provide additional podiatry services including clinic coverage, consultation, training medical and/or surgical procedures, and on-call coverage at CCRMC and Health Centers, through July 31, 2021.
