FROM: Mark Finucane, Health Services Director Contra
Costa
DATE: June 22, 1995 County
SUBJECT: Approval of Standard Contract #22-316-12 with STAT Nursing
Services
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
r
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee
(Wendel Brunner, M.D. ) , to execute on behalf of the County, Standard
Contract #22-316-12 with STAT Nursing Services, in the amount of
$97, 500, for the period from July 1, 1995 through June 30,1996, for
provision of in-home attendant care to AIDS and ARC patients.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Contract is funded by Federal Ryan White (Care Act, Title I) and
AIDS Medi-Cal Waiver funds. No County funds are required.
III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS/BACKGROUND:
This Contractor has provided in-home attendant care to County's AIDS
and ARC patients since February, 1989, as part of the AIDS Case
Management and Home/Community Based Care Project funded by the State
Department of Health Services.
When a person with AIDS or ARC is unable to secure attendant care
which would allow them to remain in the home rather than an acute care
hospital, this project provides funding for in-home attendant care
services. The contractor must attempt to collect from all other
sources of payment (e.g. , private health insurance held by the client,
Medi-Cal, Medicare, etc. ) before the County is billed for these
services.
Approval of Standard Contract #22-316-12 will allow the Contractor to
continue to provide services to County's AIDS and ARC patients through
June 30, 1996.
