RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Agreement #28-528-49 with the County of Alameda Health Care Services Agency, to pay County an amount not to exceed $1,378,948 for coordination of essential services to Contra Costa County residents with HIV Disease and their families, for the period from March 1, 2015 through February 29, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this agreement will result in a total of $1,378,948 from the County of Alameda, as the Grantee of federal funds under the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Modernization Act of 2009, Part A. No County match is required.

BACKGROUND:

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has designated the County of Alameda as “Grantee” for the purpose of administering the Ryan White HIV/AIDS Treatment Modernization Act of 2006, Part A, funds for coordination of essential services to Contra Costa County residents with HIV Disease and their families. On June 24, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #28-528-47 (as amended by Amendment Agreement #28-528-48) with the County of Alameda Health Care Services Agency, as the fiscal agent for Ryan White CARE Act, Title I and Minority AIDS Initiative funds, for coordination of services to Contra Costa residents with HIV disease and their families, for the period from March 1, 2014 through February 28, 2015.

Approval of Agreement #28-528-49 will provide continuation of funding for coordination of services through February 29, 2016, including mutual indemnification to hold harmless both parties for any claims arising out of the performance of this agreement.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this agreement is not approved, County will not receive funds to provide coordination of essential services to Contra Costa County residents with HIV Disease and their families.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
