RECOMMENDATION(S):
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Fire Chief, or designee, to execute an Ambulance Services Pre-Award Agreement between Contra Costa County Fire Protection District (District) and American Medical Response West, Inc. (AMR) establishing the form of emergency ambulance services subcontract that the District and AMR will execute if the County emergency ambulance services contract is awarded to the District, for the period of May 5, 2015, through March 31, 2016.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Ambulance Services Pre-Award Agreement does not provide for any payments to be made by either party.
BACKGROUND:
At its September 9, 2014 meeting, the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District Board of Directors (the Board) received a report from District consultant The Ludwig Group that analyzed whether it would be financially feasible for the District to provide 911 emergency ambulance services under the County emergency ambulance services contract. The study concluded that the concept was feasible.
