Dr. Smith,
After care review and evaluation of our relationship as well as the ongoing
expressed dissatisfaction from Contra Costa Regional Medical Center's
Administrator about our Group's performance, we believe that it would be in the
best interest of both parties for Mission Healthcare Services to submit our thirty
(30) day notice. It is our intention to discontinue our "Purchase of Services"
agreement with CCRMC, with our last day being June 15th, 2007.
Our Medical Group continues to be very committed to client and community
services within Contra Costa County and for this reason we sincerely wish you
the best in your mental health services delivery.
Respectfully Submitted,
Bhupinder Waraich, M.D., Medical Director
