RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE Appropriation and Revenue Adjustment No. 5009 authorizing the reduction of the budget for the Covered California Health Benefit Exchange. The contract originally designated to terminate on June 30, 2017 is now scheduled to terminate on December 31, 2016. As a result of the shortened timespan of the contract, the resulting staff and expenditure savings result in a reduction of the contract from $14,411,997 to a new budget of $4,000,000.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is 100% Federal. There is no additional county cost as a result of this budget adjustment.

BACKGROUND:

The contract for the California Health Benefit Exchange was originally designated to end on June 30, 2017. The deadline has been accelerated on the new deadline for the termination of the contract is December 31, 2016. The new budget amount for FY 16/17 is $4,000,000.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Appropriations will be overstated.
