RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #74-419-7 with William E. Berlingieri, M.D., an individual, to amend Contract #74-419-6, to increase the payment limit by $14,000 from $313,600 to a new payment limit of $327,600, with no change in the original term of January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment is funded 50% by Mental Health Services Act and 50% by Mental Health Realignment. (No rate increase)

If this amendment is not approved, West Contra Costa County patients will not have access to additional outpatient psychiatric services.
