FROM: Mark Finucane, Health Services Director Contra
By: Elizabeth A. Spooner, Contracts Administrator Costa
DATE: October 29, 1992 9 County
SUBJECT: Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-235-5 with
Comprehensive Health Services, Inc. dba Group One Therapy
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Chair, Board of Supervisors, to execute on
behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #26-235-5, to amend
Standard Contract #26-235-3 (as amended by Contract Amendment Agreement
#26-235-4) with Comprehensive Health Services, Inc. , dba Group One
Therapy, effective September 15, 1992, to increase the Contract .payment
limit by $50, 000 from $125, 000 to a new total payment limit of
$175, 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 $50, 000, from
$125, 000 to a new total payment limit of $175, 000.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On June 2, 1992, the County Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-
235-3, and on September 8, 1992, approved Contract Amendment Agreement
#26-235-4, 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 #26-235-5 will allow the Contractor to
provide additional physical therapy services through March 31, 1993.
