RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #26-294-41 with Staff Care, Inc., a corporation, effective February 1, 2019, to amend Contract #26-294-40, to increase the payment limit by $3,564,000, from $5,469,000 to a new payment limit of $9,033,000, with no change in the original term of January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

On March 28, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-294-40 with Staff Care, Inc. for the provision of locum tenens temporary physician services at Contra Costa Regional Medical and Contra Costa Health Centers (CCRMC), for the period from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2019.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

At the time of negotiations, the payment limit was based on target levels of utilization. However, the utilization during the term of the agreement was higher than originally anticipated.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-294-41 will allow the Contractor to provide additional hours of locum tenens temporary physician services through December 31, 2019.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, Contractor will not be reimbursed for additional hours of locum tenens temporary physician services rendered.
