RECOMMENDATION(S):

RESCIND Board Action of April 12, 2022 (C.88), which pertained to a contract with Shaista Rauf, M.D.; and APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County, as follows: (1) Cancellation Agreement #26-673-6 with Shaista Rauf, M.D., an individual, effective on the close of business on June 30, 2022; and (2) Contract #26-673-7 with Shaista Rauf, M.D., an individual, in an amount not to exceed $1,220,000, to provide neurology services for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers patients, for the period from July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $1,220,000 over a 3-year period and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

CCRMC has been contracting with Shaista Rauf, M.D., since September 2010 to provide neurology services for CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers patients.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On April 12, 2022, the Board of Supervisors approved (1) Cancellation Agreement #26-673-6 with Shaista Rauf, M.D., effective on the close of business on January 31, 2022; and (2) Contract #26-673-7 with Shaista Rauf, M.D., in an amount not to exceed $1,220,000, to provide neurology services for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers patients, for the period from February 1, 2022 through January 31, 2025.

The cancellation date of January 31, 2022 as previously requested for Cancellation Agreement #26-673-6 was incorrectly stated and should have stated June 30, 2022. Additionally, the term as previously requested for Contract #26-673-7 from February 1, 2022 through January 31, 2025 was incorrectly stated and should have stated July 1, 2022 through June 30, 2025. Therefore, the requested action to rescind the prior Board Order is needed.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this recommendation is not approved, the prior Board action with an incorrect cancellation date and incorrect term dates for the contract renewal will not be corrected, and the Health Services Department will not have authority to execute contracts with this contractor that reflect the effective dates agreed upon.
