Spooner, Contracts Administrator COSta DATE: August 18, 1994 County SUBJECT: Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-236-2 with Judy Windrix, A.R.T. SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOM.M'ENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve and authorize the Health Services Director or his designee (Frank Puglisi) to execute on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #26-236-2, to amend Standard Contract #26-236-1 with Judy Windrix, A.R.T. , effective August 1, 1994, to increase the two-year Contract payment limit by $25, 000, from $350, 000 to a new total payment limit of $375, 000. II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: This Contract is included in the Health Services Department Enterprise I Budget. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND: On December 8, 1992, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard (Novation) Contract #26-236-1 with Judy Windrix, A.R.T. , for the period from December 1, 1992 through November 30, 1994 , for provision of medical transcription services for Merrithew Memorial Hospital and Clinics. Expert medical transcription services are necessary to meet the standards for Medical Record Services set forth in the J.C.A.H. Accreditation Manual and to address the problem of illegibility on the part of medical professionals for which the Contra Costa Health Plan has been criticized in State Department of Health Services PHP medical audits. Over the two-year term of this Contract, the Hospital and Clinics staff has required more medical transcription services than were projected at the time the Contract was negotiated; therefore, the original two-year Contract Payment Limit is insufficient to compensate the Contractor for services through the end of the Contract term. Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-236-2 will allow the Contractor to continue providing the required services through November 30, 1994 .
