physicians.
Due to an administrative oversight provisions to reimburse Contractor for travel expenses
was omitted from the formal Contract. It was the intent of the County that the Contractor be
reimbursed for these expenses therefore this amendment will reform the Payment Provisions
to add language for expense reimbursement.
Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-701-1 will reform the Contract, to make
the formal Contract consistent with the oral agreement, which was negotiated with the
Contractor with no change in the Payment Limit or the term and allow the Contractor to
continue providing services, through July 31, 2012.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this amendment is not approved, the Contractor will not be reimbursed for travel expenses
which were inadvertently omitted from the Contract.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
Not applicable.
