SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Chair to execute on behalf of the County,
Contract Amendment Agreement #26-235-4, to amend Standard Contract #26-
235-3 (effective April 16, 1992 through March 31, 1993) with Comprehen-
sive Health Services, Inc. , dba Group One Therapy, effective August 5,
1992 , to increase the Contract payment limit by $25, 000 from $100, 000
to a new total payment limit of $125, 000.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is included in the Health Services Department Enterprise
I budget for FY 1992-93, to be funded by salary savings generated
through vacant physical therapy positions. Approval of this amendment
agreement will result in a payment limit increase of $25, 000, from
$100, 000 to a new total payment limit of $125, 000.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On June 2 , 1992 , the County Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-
235-3 with Comprehensive Health Services, dba Group One Therapy, for
physical therapy services at Merrithew Memorial Hospital and Clinics.
The Department continues to be unable to fill vacant physical therapy
positions, and has had to rely heavily on registry therapists, when
they are available.
The increase in the payment limit is due to increased patient activity
which the Hospital has experienced and expects to continue. Approval
of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-235-4 will allow the Contractor to
provide additional physical therapy services through March 31, 1993 .
