RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute, on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #26-769-5 with Bryan Ristow, M.D., an individual, effective May 1, 2019, to amend Contract #26-769-4 to decrease the payment limit by $25,000, from $1,656,000 to a new payment limit of $1,631,000, with no change in the term of June 1, 2017 through May 31, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is funded 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On May 2, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-769-4 with Bryan Ristow, M.D., for the the period from June 1, 2017 through May 31, 2020, for the provision of cardiology services including, but not limited to clinic coverage, consultation, inpatient sessions, training, on-call coverage, and reading cardiology studies at CCRMC.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-769-5 will decrease the payment limit by $25,000 to partially offset funding requirements for a new cardiologist who will begin providing services at CCRMC.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract amendment agreement is not approved, CCRMC will not have sufficient funding required to add an additional cardiologist.
