RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #26-641-18 with Advanced Medical Personnel Services, Inc., a corporation, effective June 1, 2015, to amend Contract #26-641-14, (as amended by Amendment Agreements #26-641-16 and #26-641-17) to increase the payment limit by $100,000, from $1,073,000 to a new payment limit of $1,173,000, with no change in the original term of July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

On July 8, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-641-14 (as amended by Amendment Agreements #26-641-16 and #26-641-17) with Advanced Medical Personnel Services, Inc., for the provision of temporary therapists at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers (CCRMC), for the period from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. Due to several unexpected resignations of staff, the Division has had an increase in utilization, whereby the County requested, and the Contractor agreed to provide additional temporary therapy services at CCRMC.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-641-18 will allow the Contractor to provide additional temporary help services at CCRMC through June 30, 2015.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, patients requiring therapy services will not have access to Contractor’s services, which may result in a reduction in the levels of service to the community.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
