SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute on behalf of the County, Contract
#26-144-1 with Bork :Medical Services in the amount of $25,000 for the period
April 28, 1986 - October 31, 1986 for provision of physical therapy services.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for this service is included in the FY 1985-86 Department Budget. Actual
cost to County depends upon utilization. As appropriate, patients and/or third-
party payors will be billed for services .
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
In October 1985 the County Administrator's Office approved and the Purchasing Agent
executed Contract #26°x144 with Bork Medical Services for physical therapy services
for County Hospital. '''' Contract #26-144-1 continues this service.
The department is unable to meet the basic physical therapy needs of its patients
because of an acute shortage of physical therapists. There is presently no vaca-
tion or sick leave cgMerage for physical therapists, and there is a backlog of phy-
sical therapy outpatients . Contract therapist services are used only when we
cannot recruit regular staff.
