FISCAL IMPACT: The Contract cost will increase by $4,113 monthly. The increased cost is revenue offset through a combination of Medi-Cal, targeted Case Management, and Health Plan revenues. The Contract is budgeted in Enterprise Fund I. No County General Funds are utilized. BACKGROUND/REASON(S)FOR RECOMMENDATION(S): Pacific Medical Care has provided cost effective and efficient financial management services for the County's Health Services Department since early 1987. The firms specialized knowledge in the field of public health care economics provides the Health Department with the expertise necessary to deal with the complexities of health care funding and financing. On December 6, 1988, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract#23-090-1 with Pacific Medical Care, Inc., for the period from December 1, 1988 through November 30, 1989 (and automatically renewed each year unless sooner terminated as provided in the agreement). For,the five-year period from January 1, 1999 through November 30,2004 the Contractor was paid a monthly rate of$35,090. In December 2004, the contract was amended to increase the monthly rate to $40,600. This Amendment will increase the monthly amount by $4,113 to a new total monthly rate of$44,713. This monthly increase will cover a two-year period with an effective annual percentage increase of 5%per year. Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement#23-090-7 will increase the monthly payment, which the County has been paying to the Contractor under the prior agreement as amended by subsequent Contract Amendment Agreements #23- 090-2 through #23-090=6), thereby allowing the Contactor to continue provisions of technical administrative services.
