RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #26-968-19 with Thomas N. Paige, M.D., an individual, in an amount not to exceed $510,000, to provide dermatology services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the period from October 1, 2022 through September 30, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $510,000 over a 3-year period and will be funded 100% by Hospital Enterprise Fund I revenues. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

Due to the limited number of specialty providers available within the community, CCRMC and Health Centers rely on contractors to provide necessary specialty health services to their patients. The County has been contracting with this contractor for dermatology services since October 1999, which include clinic coverage, on-call services, and medical and surgical procedures.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On October 22, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-968-17 with Thomas N. Paige, M.D, in an amount not to exceed $390,000, to provide dermatology services at CCRMC and Health Centers, for the period October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2022.

On July 13, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract Amendment Agreement #26-968-18, effective July 1, 2021, to increase the payment limit by $60,000 to a new payment limit of $450,000 for additional hours of dermatology services, with no change in the original term of October 1, 2019 through September 30, 2022.

Approval of Contract #26-968-19 will allow this contractor to continue to provide dermatology services at CCRMC and Health Centers through September 30, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, patients requiring dermatology services will not have access to this contractor’s services.
