RECOMMENDATION(S):

RESCIND Board action of April 12, 2022 (C.84) which pertained to a contract with John Muir Health; and APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute Contract #26-361-2, containing mutual indemnification, with John Muir Health, (dba John Muir Medical Center-Walnut Creek), a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $50,000 to provide back-up laboratory services for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers for the period January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in expenditures of up to $50,000 over a three-year period and will be funded as budgeted by the Department in FY 2021-2022, 2022-2023 and projected in 2023-2024 by 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I allocations. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

CCRMC has an obligation to provide outside laboratory testing services to its patients in the event testing services are unavailable due to planned down time or unscheduled down time affecting patient care, the County contracts with other outside laboratory service contractors should the need arise, in order to avoid any delay in patient care. The County has been contracting with this provider since January 1, 2016.

On February 12, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-361-1 with John Muir Health, in an amount not to exceed $50,000 to provide outside laboratory testing services for scheduled and non-scheduled down time at CCRMC for the period from January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2021.

Approval of Contract #26-361-2 will allow the contractor to continue to provide outside laboratory testing services through December 31, 2024. This contract includes mutual indemnification.

This Board Order will rescind the incorrect board order with the incorrect name of the contractor. Approval of this item will allow the department to fully execute a contract with John Muir Health with the appropriate legal name.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If the recommendation is not approved, the prior incorrect Board action will not be corrected and the contract will not be fully executed.
