In consideration of Contractor’s agreement to continue providing services, both parties have agreed to re-negotiate payment terms. Therefore, in accordance with General Conditions, Paragraph 5. (Termination and Cancellation) of the Contract, the Department and Contractor have agreed to a mutual cancellation of Contract #26-663-1. Approval of Cancellation Agreement #26-663-2 will accomplish this termination. Under Contract #26-663-3, Contractor will provide professional plastic surgery services, including, clinic coverage, consultation, training and medical and/or surgical procedures, through October 31, 2012. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this Contract is not approved, this physician would not be reimbursed the same as other County plastic surgeons for medical and/or surgical procedures. With fewer plastic surgeons to perform medical and/or surgical procedures patients at Contra Costa Regional Medical and Contra Costa Health Centers would have longer wait times and possibly go untreated.
