SUBJECT: Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement#26-213-22 with KGI, Inc. (dba Key Temps)
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S)OR RECOMMENDATION(S)&BACKGROUND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATION(S):
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, (Jeff Smith, M.D.) to execute on behalf of
the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #26-213-22 with KGI, Inc. (dba Key Temps), a corporation,
effective July 1, 2007, to amend Contract #26-213-21 to increase the total Contract Payment Limit by $60,000
from $60,000 to a new total payment limit of$120,000, with no change in the original term of January 1, 2007
through December 31, 2007.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% Enterprise I Funds. Cost to the County depends upon utilization. As appropriate, patients and/or third
party payors will be billed for services.
BACKGROUND/REASON(S) FOR RECOMMENDATIONS:
For several years, the County has contracted with registries to provide temporary medical professionals to
assist Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers during peak loads, temporary
absences, and emergency situations. There is a nationwide nursing and healthcare staff shortage, and in spite
of persistent efforts to recruit nurses and other healthcare staff, the Department has experienced great
difficulty in filling any vacant positions. Therefore, the Department has had to rely heavily on the registry
services in order to provide quality-nursing care for patients.
On February 6, 2007, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-213-21 with KGI Inc. (dba Key
Temps), for the period from January 1, 2007 through December 31, 2007, for the provision of temporary
Registered Dental Assistant services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health
Centers, during staff absences and vacancies.
