H�. Contra
FROM: Mark Finucane, Health Services Director ow n^
By: Elizabeth A. Spooner, Contracts Administrator Costa
DATE: April 11, 1985 Wuqy
SUBJECT: Approval of Agreement #23-070 with Alameda County
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and -authorize the Chairwoman to execute on behalf of the County, an
Agreement #23-070 between Contra Costa County and Alameda County, effective
April 24, 1985 and continuing from- year to year until terminated by either
party, for reciprocal authorization of emergency medical services.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
None
',III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION'/BACKGROUND:
From time to time there are emergencies in contiguous areas of counties which
necessitate the transport of critically ill patients across county lines, and
patients who are receiving advanced life support services may need to have
the services continued. However, the law requires local control of paramedic
certi-fication, so that Alameda paramedics are not certified in Contra Costa
County, and conversely, Contra Costa paramedics are not certified in Alameda
County. This agreement allows for paramedics to use their skills under the
medical control of a base hospital physician in either Contra Costa or
Alameda County under specific circumstances.
Approval of this reprocity agreement will update an old agreement with
Alameda County which was entered into by the respective County Health
Officers. The County has a similar agreement with Marin County and a pending
agreement with Solano County.
This contract has been approved as to legal form by County Counsel's Office.
