RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #77-289 containing mutual indemnification with Council For Affordable Quality Healthcare, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $60,000, to provide software implementation and administration services for their online repository database to Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP), for the period from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2023.

This Contract is funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund II.

BACKGROUND:

Council For Affordable Quality Healthcare, Inc. (CAQH), has developed an online repository of health care provider information. That database, CAQH ProView (“ProView”), is currently supported by two modules through which health care providers submit information to ProView via an Internet-based service; and through which participating organizations are able to access information in ProView electronically. CCHP will access the database through a web portal which CAQH operates, to obtain electronic provider credential applications.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Under Contract #77-289, Contractor and County will execute a Master Service Agreement under which Contractor will provide software implementation and administrative services for the period from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2023. This Contract includes mutual indemnification.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, the County will not have access to this database that allows Contra Costa Health Plan to obtain electronic provider credential applications.
