FROM: Mark Finucane, Health Services Director k / I Cwtra
By: Elizabeth A. Spooner, Contracts Administrator COSta
DATE: May 20, 1992 County
SUBJECT: Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-214-2 with
Therapy Connection, Inc.
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Chair to execute on behalf of the County,
Contract Amendment Agreement #26-214-2, effective June 1, 1992, to
amend Standard Contract #26-214-1 (effective November 1, 1991 through !
October 31, 1992) with Therapy Connection, Inc. , for provision of �
physical and occupational therapy services at Merrithew Memorials
Hospital and Clinics. This Contract Amendment Agreement will increase
the contract payment limit by $25, 000, from $25,000 to a new totals
payment limit of $50,000.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is included in the Health Services Department Enterprise
I budget for FY 1991-92, and is included in the Department's projec-
tions for FY 1992-93, to be funded by salary savings generated through
vacant physical/occupational therapy positions. Approval of this
amendment agreement will result in a payment limit increase of $25, 000,
from $25, 000 to a new total payment limit of $50, 000.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
On November 18, 1991, the County Administrator's Office approved and
the Purchasing Agent executed Contract #26-214-1 with Therapy Connec-
tion, Inc. , for physical/occupational therapy services at Merrithew
Memorial Hospital and Clinics. The Department continues to be unable
to fill vacant physical and occupational therapy positions, and has had
to rely heavily on registry therapists, when they are available.
The increase in the payment limit is due to increased patient activity
which the Hospital has experienced and expects to continue. Approval
of Contract Amendment Agreement #26-214-2 will allow the Contractor to
continue providing therapy services through October 31, 1992 .
