REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND: For many years, the County has maintained a contractual relationship with the Martinez Veterans Administration Medical Center, through a mutual sharing agreement, which has made available to the County specialized medical services not available at Merrithew Memorial Hospital and Clinics due to lack of resources, equipment, and person- nel. At the present time the Veterans Administration is providing nuclear medicine studies, specialized laboratory tests, and dermatology services. The Contract documents have always been prepared by the Veterans Administration.
