Amendment Agreement #26-203-10 with Nor-Cal Medical Temps, effective
October 1, 1997, to amend Contract #26-203-9 (effective April 1, 1997
through March 31, 1998) , for the provision of temporary help (pharma-
cists and technicians) at Merrithew Memorial Hospital and Health
Centers. This amendment increases 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' s Enterprise
I budget.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On April 1, 1997, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-203-9
with Nor-Cal Medical Temps, for the period from April 1, 1997 through
March 31, 1998, for temporary help during vacations, sick leave, and
temporary absences of County pharmacists and technicians, as well as
during periods when permanent positions were vacant.
At the time Contract #26-203-9 was negotiated, the payment limit was
based upon targeted levels of utilization. However, the utilization of
services has exceeded the Department's projections.
Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-203-10 will allow the
Contractor to continue providing temporary coverage, through March 31,
1998 .
