SUBJECT: Approval of Hospital Agreement #23-076-4 with
John Muir Medical Center
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
I. RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve and authorize the Health Services Director to execute on
behalf of the County, Hospital Agreement #23-076-4 with John Muir
Medical Center, for the period from July 1, 1995 through June 30,
1996, in the amount of $50, 000. The Agreement implements the County's
designation of John Muir Medical Center as a Base Hospital for
paramedic units assigned to the County's Emergency Medical Services
Zones A and B.
II. FINANCIAL IMPACT:
This Agreement is funded by County Service Area EM-1 (Measure H)
funds. There is no County General Fund impact.
III. BACKGROUND:
On October 4, 19941 the Board of Supervisors approved Hospital
Agreement #23-076-3 with John Muir Medical Center for the period from
July 1, 1994 through June 30, 1995, for Base Hospital Services.
Base Hospitals provide on-line and retrospective medical direction and
control to paramedic units and are required as a part of an EMS system
providing Advanced Life Support. Base Hospitals provide medical
direction without regard to patient destination, and therefore,
provide services for patients who may be transported to facilities
other than John Muir Medical Center. Currently, two Base Hospitals
serve the four County-designated Base Hospital Zones: John Muir serves
Zone A (West County) and Zone B (South County) ; and Mt. Diablo Medical
Center serves Zone C (North County) and Zone D (East County) .
Approval of Hospital Agreement #23-076-4 will allow John Muir Medical
Center to continue as the designated Base Hospital for Zones A and B
through Fiscal Year 1995-96.
