Spooner, Contracts .Administrator Costa DATE: December 4, 1991 County SUBJECT: Approval of Extension of Medical Specialist Contracts SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION I. RECOMMENDED ACTION: A. Approve an additional extension of the Medical Specialist Contracts specified on the attached addendum for the one-month period from December 31, 1991 through January 31, 1992 and authorize the Auditor-Controller to continue paying the Contractors listed on the attached addendum as specified under the prior agreements (as extended by your Board on November 5, 1991) . B. Amend November 5, 1991 Board Order (Subject: Approval of Extension of Medical Specialist Contract) to delete the following Medical Specialists from the addendum attached to the Board Order: #26-862-9 Neil S. Kostick, M.D. (Geriatric Psychiatry) #26-899 Gloria Asuncion, M.D. (Pathology Services) II. FINANCIAL IMPACT: Cost to the County depends upon utilization. As appropriate, patients and/or third party payers will be billed for services. III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND: For a number of years the County has contracted with Dental and Medical Specialists to provide specialized professional services which are not otherwise available in its hospital and clinics. The usual annual term of these contracts has been November 1 - October 31, although contracts may be added or amended, as necessary, throughout the year. On November 5, 1991, the Board approved two- month contract extensions for the Medical Specialists specified on the attached Addendum. These extensions were necessary because the Health Services Department had not yet completed negotiations with these Contractors. Ongoing negotiations are drawing to a close and the purpose of this Board Order is to provide a mechanism which will assure continuity of vital services to patients and facilitate payment to the Medical Specialists for one additional month pending completion of contract negotiations.
