SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) Of? RECOMMC114DA•r1ON(S ) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I . RECOMMENDED ACTION :
Approve a three-month extension of the Medical/Dental Specialist
Contracts specified on the attached Addendum for the period
April 30, 1987 through July 31 , 1987 , and authorize the
Auditor-Controller to continue paying the Contractors listed on
the attached Addendum as specified under the prior agreements
which are expiring April 30, 1987 .
II . FINANCIAL IMPACT :
Cost to the County depends upon utilization . As appropriate ,
patients and/or third party payers will be billed for services .
III . REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND :
For a number of years the County has contracted with Dental and
Medical Specialists to provide specialized professional services
which are not otherwise available in its hospital and clinics .
The usual annual term of these contracts has been May 1 - April
30 , although contracts may be added or amended, as necessary, ,
throughout the year . During the past year since May 1 , 1986 ,
the Board has approved Medical/Dental Contracts , which will
expire on April 30 , 1987 , for the Medical/Dental Specialists
specified on the attached Addendum.
Because of a study currently underway regarding the issue of
malpractice liability insurance for Dental and Medical
Specialists , the Department has not completed negotiations with
these contractors . The purpose of this Board Order is to pro-
vide a mechanism which will assure continuity of vital services
to patients and facilitate payment to the Medical/Dental
Specialists for three additional months pending completion of
contract negotiations .
