On June 27, 2006, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #26-347-10 (as amended by Amendment
Agreement #26-347-11) with Medstaff, Inc., in the amount of $950,000, for the provision of temporary
nursing registry services for Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and Contra Costa Health Centers, for the
period from May 1, 2006 through April 30, 2007
Services were requested and provided beyond the payment limit and by the end of April 30, 2007, charges of
$984,678.76 had been incurred, of which $950,000 had been paid and $34,678.76 remains outstanding.
Nursing services were both requested by County staff and provided by the Contractor in good faith.
However, due to an administrative oversight, invoicing for services were not processed in a timely manner,
therefore the Department did not process an amendment prior to the expiration date of the Contract.

#26-347-13
The Department is requesting that the amount due to the Contractor be paid. This can be accomplished by the
Board of Supervisors ratifying the actions of the County employees in obtaining provision of temporary
nursing services of a value in excess of the contract payment limit. This will create a valid obligation on the
part of the County retroactively authorizing all payments made by the Auditor-Controller up to now, and
authorizing payment of the balance.
