RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #23-697-5 with Public Health Foundation Enterprises, Inc., a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $904,127 to provide employer of record services for the COVID-19 Adult Ambassador Program, for the period from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in expenditures of up to $904,127 for Fiscal Year 2022/23 and will be funded 100% by the American Rescue Plan Act allocation.

BACKGROUND:

On March 10, 2020, the Board of Supervisors requested that the Governor proclaim a State of Emergency in Contra Costa County (Gov. Code Section 8625) due to COVID-19. The Health Department must use all available preventative measures to combat the spread of COVID-19 which includes testing and vaccine administration. The Department must enter into contracts for these services and competitive bidding requirements are suspended to the extent necessary to address the effects of COVID-19. COVID-19 Adult Ambassador Program promotes testing and community best practices for safety, primarily in areas that are underserved or experiencing a surge in cases. The Program assists the County in meeting State requirements in outreach and testing.

On December 15, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #23-697 with Public Health Foundation Enterprises, Inc., in an amount of $774,212 for the provision of COVID-19 Adult Ambassador Program for the period December 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021.

On April 20, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Extension Agreement #23-697-1 to extend the termination date from June 30, 2021 to October 31, 2021 with no change in the payment limit of $774,212.

On September 7, 2021 the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #23-697-2, effective September 1, 2021, to increase the payment limit by $99,528 to a new payment limit of $873,740 with no change in the term through October 31, 2021.

On October 5, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #23-697-3, effective October 1, 2021, to increase the payment limit by $272,502 to a new payment limit of $1,146,242 and extend the termination date from October 31, 2021 to January 31, 2022.

On February 1, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Amendment Agreement #23-697-4, effective January 31, 2022, to increase the payment limit by $430,153 to a new payment limit of $1,576,395 and extend the termination date from January 31, 2022 to June 30, 2022.

Approval of Contract #23-697-5 will allow the COVID-19 Adult Ambassador Program to continue to promote testing and community best practices through June 30, 2023.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the most vulnerable Contra Costa County residents will continue to be at high risk for health disparities.
