RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #76-605-3 with First Choice Anesthesia Consultants of Northern California PC, a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $850,000, to provide anesthesia services for the period from March 1, 2022 through February 28, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $850,000 and is funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

This contract meets the social needs of the County’s population by providing anesthesia services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Health Centers for general surgery, obstetrics, intensive care and radiology units and has been contracting with the County since November 2017.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On March 30, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #76-605-2 with First Choice Anesthesia Consultants of Northern California, PC, in an amount not to exceed $850,000 to provide anesthesia services at CCRMC and Health Centers for the period March 1, 2021 through February 28, 2022.

Approval of Contract #76-605-3 will allow the contractor to continue providing anesthesia services through February 28, 2023. The delay in processing this contract was due to ongoing negotiations between the department and the contractor.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County will not be able to provide anesthesia services to CCRMC patients.
