SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION

Authorize the County Administrator, Acting Health Services Director and
County Counsel to negotiate an agreement between the County and the

to recommend to the Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development
the delicensure of eight (8) County hospital beds in favor of the
Los Medanos Community Hospital District in exchange for a payment of
$168,000 , 10% , or $16 ,800 , of which is to be a nonrefundable option
payment payable upon execution of a mutually acceptable agreement, with
the balance to be payable in monthly installments over a period of ten
years at an annual interest rate of 7% on the unpaid balance payable
beginning upon completion of agreed upon conditions to be spelled out in

for its further consideration.
BACKGROUND
On March 6 , 1984 the Board of Supervisors agreed to a two-week delay in the
presentation of the results of negotiations between the County and the
Los Medanos Community Hospital District and referred to our Committee the
proposal from Delta Memorial Hospital. On March 19 , 1984 our Committee
met with the administrators of both Delta and Los Medanos Hospitals in
separate closed sessions with the Interim County Administrator, Acting
Health Services Director and Assistant County Counsel. Following those
meetings the Administrator of Los Medanos Hospital submitted a revised
proposal providing for a payment to the County of $168,000 under specified
terms and conditions in exchange for the County' s agreeing to recommend
the transfer of eight (8) of its bed licenses to the Los Medanos Community
Hospital District. We believe the offer by the District is essentially
acceptable subject to working out the details of an agreement and that the
Board should authorize the preparation of such an agreement.
