Supplemental Health Care 17-18 Contract.pdf
Summary: Supplemental Healthcare is a non-public agency (NPA) that provides Speech and Language Pathology Services for school based services that are identified on Individual Education Plans (IEP's). When the district (MDUSD) is not able to fill all open positions with district employees, the use of contract agencies is necessary to ensure that we are in compliance with state and federal law that govern Special Education. Supplemental Healthcare is a company that will be utilized to provide Speech Services to ensure that all of our needed Speech Services are covered for the 2017-2018 school year, as MDUSD Personnel Department and Special Education continues to recruit and hire district employees.
Funding: Special Education Department Program Code 1219 Speech / Audiology
Fiscal Impact The contracted amount between MDUSD and Supplemental Healthcare is for $120,000, which is already a budgeted expense for this school year.
Recommendation: Approve the contract between Mt. Diablo Unified School District and Supplemental Healthcare.
