RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute Contract #76-593-8 with Per Diem Staffing Systems, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000, to provide temporary medical, pharmacy and other ancillary staffing services at Contra Costa Regional Medical Center (CCRMC) and Contra Costa Health Centers for the period July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Approval of this contract will result in annual expenditures of up to $2,000,000 and will be funded as budgeted by the Department in FY 2024-25 by 100% Hospital Enterprise Fund I allocations.
BACKGROUND:
CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers have an obligation to provide medical staffing services to patients. Therefore, the county contracts with temporary help firms to ensure patient care is provided during peak loads, temporary absences, vacations and emergency situations where additional staffing is required. The County has been using the contractor’s temporary staffing services since July 1, 2017. This contract is entered into under and subject to the following legal authorities: California Government Code §§ 26227 and 31000. CCRMC’s Quality Management, Utilization Management and Contract Monitor Staff meet on a regular basis to ensure monitoring and performance measures in the contract are upheld. These contracted services were determined to be exempt from Administrative Bulletin 600.3 solicitation requirements by the Public Works Department’s Purchasing Division.
On July 11, 2023, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #76-593-7 with Per Diem Staffing Systems, Inc., in an amount not to exceed $2,000,000 for the provision of temporary radiology technicians, licensed vocational nurses and other categories of medical staffing services to cover employee sick leaves, vacations and workers compensation leaves, at CCRMC and Contra Costa Health Centers for the period from July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024.
Approval of Contract #76-593-8 will allow the contractor to continue providing temporary radiology technicians, licensed vocational nurses and other categories of medical staffing services through June 30, 2025. This contract includes services provided by represented classifications and the county has met its obligations with the respective labor partner(s).
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If this contract is not approved, the County will not have access to this contractor’s temporary medical staffing services which may impact our ability to treat patients in need of medical services.
