RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE clarification of Board Action of March 1, 2022, (Item C.37) which authorized the Health Services Director to execute Contract #26-584-8 with the Diablo Nephrology Medical Group, Inc., a corporation, to reflect the intent of the parties in which the Payment Limit should read an amount not to exceed $900,000 instead of $804,000, for nephrology services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers, with no change in term November 1, 2021 through October 31, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in contractual expenditures of up to $900,000 over a 3-year period and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (No rate increase)

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this correction is not approved, the Board Order will not match the contract signed by the contractor and county and services would not be able to be provided throughout the term of the contract.

BACKGROUND:

Due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community, CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers relies on contracts to provide necessary specialty health services to its patients. The county has been contracting with Diablo Nephrology Medical Group, Inc., since November 2006 to provide nephrology services, including clinic coverage, consultation, training, medical and/or surgical procedures and on-call coverage.

On March 1, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-584-8 with Diablo Nephrology Medical Group, Inc., in an amount of $804,000, for the provision of nephrology services at CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers for the period November 1, 2021 through October 31, 2024.

Due to an oversight the Payment Limit specified on the Board Order did not match the contract. The purpose of this Board Order is to correct the Payment Limit from $804,000 to $900,000, to reflect the intent of the department and contractor.
