RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Amendment Agreement #23-391-20 with Laura Swafford, an individual, to amend Contract #23-391-18, effective May 1, 2022, to increase the payment limit by $50,000, from $250,000 to a new payment limit of $300,000 with no change in the term of July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022, for consultation, technical support, and training services for the Health Service Department’s ccLink System.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in additional budgeted expenditures of up to $50,000 for FY 2021-2022 and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This contractor has been providing technical support and training services for the Health Services Department for the ccLink System to enhance utilization of the EPIC Billing System since 2006. Approval of this contract will allow the contractor to continue to work on data and financial analysis, partner with department leaders to understand current workflows and develop future workflows that will result in operations improvements, investigate complex billing issues and recommend both operational and technical solutions that align with the department’s business strategy.

On April 27, 2021 the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-391-18 with Laura Swafford, in an amount not to exceed $250,000, to provide technical support and training services to the Health Services Department’s billing office work processes and creating work queues in ccLink for the period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022.

Approval of County Amendment Agreement #23-391-20 will allow this contractor to provide additional technical support and training services effective May 1, 2022 through June 30, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the contractor will not provide services to the Department for work queues and billing in ccLink System.
