FROM: Harry D. Cisterman, Director of Personnel Contra
Costa
DATE: June 8, 1990
SUBJECT: 1st Choice Health Plan - Pacific Peer Review, Inc. ("PPRI") -
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
Recommendation: '
Authorize the Assistant County Administrator/Director of Personnel to
execute an amended contract, with Pacific Peer Review, Inc. ("PPRI") in order
to raise the contract payment limit.
Background:
On December 15, 1987, the Board of Supervisors under Board Resolution
#87/760 authorized the Assistant County Administrator/Director of Personnel to
execute a contract with Pacific Peer Review, Inc. ("PPRI") for the Second
Surgical Opinion Review Program for the 1st Choice Health Plan. The payment
limit was set at $6,000 per contract year based on the projected enrollment in
1988 and 1989. In 1990, the 1st Choice Health Plan membership significantly
increased, primarily due to Heals transfers, which increased the annual
contract payment limit. This amendment is necessary in order to increase the
payment limit to $10,000 in order to provide uninterrupted payments to the
contractor.
Fiscal Impact:
Although the administrative fee remains at $.25 per month per member,
there will be a higher monthly fee as the 1st Choice membership increases.
This fee will be charged to the 1st Choice Health Plan Trust Fund.
