The Health Department is requesting approval to renew our imaging contract with Banner to provide the technical component of diagnostic imaging/radiology services (the taking of x-rays) to designated eligible patients referred to Banner by the Health Department. In addition, Banner will now also be performing the professional component (the reading of the x-rays/images).

This contract has a three-year renewal period, with an effective date of January 1, 2021, which backdates this contract to include the new professional components added at the beginning of this year, and continuing through July 20, 2024. Weld County Assistant County Attorney, Karin McDougal, has reviewed this contract and has determined that the terms are acceptable. What options exist for the Board? (include consequences, impacts, costs, etc. of options): Approving this contract will allow WCDPHE to request and pay for the technical and professional components of diagnostic imaging/radiology through Banner (NCMC), a local provider, at current year Medicare rates. Declining this contract will increase the costs to Weld County for these imaging services to "fee for service" rates which would be cost prohibitive and add to the net county cost of providing these services to eligible patients. Recommendation: I recommend approval of this Diagnostic Services Agreement with Banner. Approve Schedule Recommendation Work Session Other/Comments: Perry L. Buck Mike Freeman Scott K.
