Summary:
|
MDUSD has contracted with Paradigm HealthCare Services, Inc. to prepare and submit Medi-Cal claims to the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) for the reimbursement of health care services provided by MDUSD as a Local Education Agency (LEA). The service agreement enables Paradigm to process LEA Medi-Cal claims from July 1, 2010 through June 30, 2013, regardless whether those activities are to be performed during or after the term of the agreement. The cost of their services is calculated monthly by taking the approved Medi-Cal reimbursements and multiplying the amount by 11% (for gross amounts paid to LEA, up to $400,000), 10% (for gross amounts paid to LEA, from $400,001 to $1 million), or 9% (for gross amounts paid to LEA, above $1 million). The monthly invoices are paid against the incoming revenue from Medi-Cal reimbursements; therefore, the costs of these services are cost neutral.
The Board approved the Service Agreement with Paradigm on October 26, 2010 for the amount of $122,000 for the period July 1, 2010 until June 30, 2013. The contract was increased by $50,000 in November 2012 and then increased by $46,000 in May 2013. Staff requests to increase the purchase order amount for the 2013-14 fiscal year by $10,000 to cover the cost of Paradigm completing claims for the 2011-12 fiscal year. This will bring the total PO amount from $24,500 to $34,500.
