Subject:Amendment #26-395-15 with Locumtenens.Com.,LLC
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
28, 2014, with modifications to the General Conditions from the standard County format.
Due to an increase in utilization and a delay in invoice processing, the division is requesting an effective date of
November 1, 2013 for this amendment including a request to add two new physician classes to the revised rate
schedule of the contract.
Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-395-15 increases the payment limit and modifies the rate schedule
and to add two new classifications of temporary Hospitalist and Nocturnist physician services through February 28,
2014.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this amendment is not approved, patients requiring these services at Contra Costa Regional Medical and Contra
Costa Health Centers will not have access to Contractor’s services which may result in a reduction of overall services
to the community.
CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:
NOT APPLICABLE.
