The Department has established a search committee to identify ophthalmologists

selected by the committee. This contract allows the Hospital and Health
Centers to cancel the contracts of two fee-for-service ophthalmologists
affording a significant cost savings for the Department.

County's patients at Merrithew Memorial Hospital and Health Centers through
July 31, 1999.
