RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #76-519-10 with Steven Harrison, M.D., a Professional Corporation, to amend Contract #76-519-9, to reduce the payment limit by $50,000, from $1,050,000 to a new payment limit of $1,000,000, with no change in the original term of May 1, 2017 through April 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment is funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I.

BACKGROUND:

On April 25, 2017, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #76-519-9 with Steven Harrison, M.D., a professional corporation, for the provision of ophthalmology services, including: clinic and on-call coverage, consultation, training and medical procedures at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Health Centers for the period May 1, 2017 through April 30, 2020. Due to the elimination of Section Chief duties, the County and contractor agreed to reduce the contract payment limit and allow the contractor to continue to provide all other ophthalmology services through April 30, 2020.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #76-519-10 will allow the contractor to continue to provide ophthalmology services through April 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, the contractor’s contract will not match the oral agreement to eliminate Section Chief duties.
