RECOMMENDED ACTION: Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Wendel Brunner, M.D. ) , to execute on behalf of the County, Contract Amendment Agreement #22-316-14 with STAT Nursing Services, effective December 1, 1996, to amend Contract #22-316-13, to increase the contract payment limit by $105, 000, from $75, 000 to a new total payment limit of $180, 000, 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: On July 16, 1996, the Board of Supervisors approved Standard Contract #22-316-13 with STAT Nursing Services for the period from July 1, 1996 through June 30, 1997, for provision of in-home attendant care to AIDS and ARC patients. The Contract Payment Limit was based on a projected volume of patient services. Services have been requested, as needed, by County staff, and have been provided by the Contractor in good faith. However, the actual amount of in-home services increased more than anticipated. Because of an administrative oversight by the Department and the Contractor, the use of services has exceeded the Contract Payment Limit. Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #22-316-14 will allow the Contractor to continue to provide services to County's AIDS and ARC patients through June 30, 1997 .
