RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #26-721-9 with Minh Nguyen, M.D., an individual, effective July 1, 2021, to amend Contract #26-721-6 (as amended by Contract Amendment Agreement #26-721-7 and #26-721-8) to increase the payment limit by $436,000 from $324,000 to a new payment limit of $760,000, with no change in the original term of June 1, 2020 through May 31, 2023.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract amendment will result in additional contractual service expenditures of up to $436,000 for FY 2021/2022 ($218,000) and FY 2022/2023 ($218,000) and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues.

BACKGROUND:

Due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community, Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers relies on contracts to provide necessary specialty health services to its patients. CCRMC has contracted with Minh Nguyen, M.D. for pulmonary critical care specialty services since June 1, 2012.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In July 2020, the County Administrator approved and Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #26-721-6 with Minh Nguyen, M.D., in an amount of $195,000 to provide pulmonary critical care services including consultation, training, surgical procedures, sleep studies and diagnostic procedures for patients at CCRMC, for the period from June 1, 2020 through May 31, 2023.

On March 2, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract Amendment Agreement #26-721-7 with Minh Nguyen, M.D., to increase the payment limit by $60,000 from $195,000 to a new payment limit of $255,000 to provide additional pulmonary critical care services, including consultation, training, medical and surgical procedures for CCRMC and Health Centers patients with no change in the term of June 1, 2020 through May 31, 2023.

On April 27, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract Amendment Agreement #26-721-8 with Minh Nguyen, M.D., to increase the payment limit by $69,000 from $255,000 to a new payment limit of $324,000 to provide additional pulmonary critical care services, including consultation, training, medical and surgical procedures for CCRMC and Health Centers patients with no change in the term of June 1, 2020 through May 31, 2023.

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-721-9 will allow this contractor to continue to provide additional services including inpatient critical care and pulmonary services through May 31, 2023.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the County will not have access to this contractor’s additional inpatient critical care and pulmonary services at CCRMC.
