RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute, on behalf of County Contract Amendment #27-814-9 with Credentals Services, Inc. (dba Verifpoint), a corporation, effective June 1, 2023, to amend Contract #27-814-8 to increase the payment limit by $120,000 from $120,000 to a new payment limit of $240,000, with no change in the term October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will result in additional contractual service expenditures of up to $120,000 during the contract's three-year period and is funded 100% by CCHP Enterprise Fund II revenues.n This amendment does not include a rate increase.

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide credentialed providers for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. This contractor provides credentialing services for CCHP Provider Network, and has been providing credentialing services since October 1, 2010.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On October 5, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #27-814-8 with Credentals Services, Inc. (dba Verifpoint), in the amount of $120,000 for the provision of credentialing services for CCHP Provider Network, for the period October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2024.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #27-814-9, effective June 1, 2023, will increase the contract payment limit by $120,000 to a new payment limit of $240,000, to allow this contractor to provide additional credentialing services for the CCHP Provider Network since utilization has surpassed the original expectation set forth at the commencement of the contract term, with no change in the original term of October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2024.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, additional credentialing services for the CCHP Provider Network will not be provided, which may impact members by delaying required provider credentialing services.
