SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Chair to execute on behalf of the
County, Contract" Amendment Agreement 426-150-1 with Ultrascan
effective May 1, 1987 to amend Contract 426-150 (effective
October 1 , 1986 ) for the provision 'of ultrasound diagnostic
testing and interpretation with a $12 , 000 increase in the
contract payment limit .

Approval of this amendment will result in an increase in the
contract payment limit of $12 , 000, from $15, 000 to a new total
payment limit of $27 , 000.
Source of funding for this service is the County, and patients
and third party . payors will be billed as appropriate .
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND :
Contract #26-150 (effective October 1 , 1986 - September 30 ,
1987 ) was approved by the Purchasing Agent . This Contract for
ultrasound diagnostic testing and interpretation added a new
service to the medical resources available at Merrithew Memorial
Hospital and Clinics , and since there is no history, it was dif-
ficult to project the level of usage for this service .
After several months , it has become apparent that the service is
being used more than originally anticipated , and , therefore the
Department is requesting approval of Contract Amendment
Agreement #26-150 which will provide additional funds to pay the
Contractor for some of the services already delivered and to
cover the remaining term of the Contract .
