Subject:Cancellation Agreement #26-975-4 and Contract #26-975-5 with Mark Van Handel, M.D.
BACKGROUND:
On July 11, 2006, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-975-2 (as amended by
Amendment Agreement #26-975-3) with Mark Van Handel, M.D., to provide neurology
services including clinic coverage, consultation, training, on-call and medical and/or
surgical procedures, for patients at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa
Health Centers, for the period from July 1, 2006 through June 30, 2009.
In consideration of Contractor’s agreement to continue providing services, both parties have
agreed to re-negotiate payment terms. This will allow the Contractor provide expanded
duties due to leave of other neurologists. The Department and the Contractor have mutually
agreed to renegotiate the Contract Payment Provisions and the term to reflect the intent of
the parties. Therefore, in accordance with Special Conditions, Paragraph 2. (Modification to
Termination and Cancellation) of the Contract, the Department and Contractor have agreed
to a mutual cancellation of Contract #26-975-3. Approval of Cancellation Agreement
#26-975-4 will accomplish this termination.
Under Contract #26-975-5, Contractor will provide professional neurology services,
including, clinic coverage, consultation, training, on-call services, and medical and/or
surgical procedures, through May 31, 2012.
