RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #77-302-1 with Sycamore Healthcare Associates, (dba Legacy Post Acute Care), a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $3,000,000 to provide skilled nursing facility (SNF) services for Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) members for the period September 1, 2022 through August 31, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

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

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide certain specialized SNF health care services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. Members are released from the hospital to recover at an SNF until they are well enough to be sent home. These services include, but are not limited to twenty-four (24) hour medical care, social service and case management coordination, wound care, respiratory therapy, nasogastric and gastric tube feeding, physical and speech therapy services. This contractor has been a part of the CCHP Provider Network since September 1, 2020.

On August 11, 2020, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #77-302 with Sycamore Healthcare Associates, Inc. (dba Legacy Nursing and Rehabilitation), in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000 to provide SNF services for Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) members for the period September 1, 2020 through August 31, 2022.

Approval of Contract #77-302-1 will allow the contractor now known as Sycamore Healthcare Associates, (dba Legacy Post Acute Care), to continue providing SNF services for CCHP members through August 31, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, certain specialized SNF health care services for CCHP members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County will not be provided.
