HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 05142013 - C.23RECOMMENDATION(S): Adopt Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21286 to add one (1) Health Plan Member Services Counselor (V9VE) position, at salary level QT5 1182 ($3,349.08 - $4,070.83), in the Health Services Department. FISCAL IMPACT: Upon approval, this action will result in an annual cost of approximately $98,077, including pension costs of $17,341, and will be offset by Contra Costa Health Plan member premiums. BACKGROUND: Due to the increase of Seniors and Persons with Disabilities (SPDs), the Contra Costa Health Plan’s (CCHP) Member Services unit is experiencing an increasing volume of phone calls from members. The Member Services unit, with its current staffing, is unable to keep up with the incoming calls and is out of compliance with average answer and abandonment rates. Since CCHP’s memberships continue to grow, we do not anticipate the number of calls to decrease. Therefore, we are requesting to add one Health Plan Member Services Counselor for the Member Services unit. CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If this action is not approved, the Member Services unit of Contra Costa Health Plan will be out of compliance with member call response times.
