DATE: October 22, 2024
TO: Board of Supervisors
SUBMITTED BY: David Luchini, RN, PHN, Director, Department of Public Health
SUBJECT: Retroactive Revenue Agreement with the California Emergency Medical Services
Authority
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute a retroactive revenue Agreement with the
California Emergency Medical Services Authority for multi-county emergency medical services
coordination, effective July 1, 2024 through June 30, 2025($960,447).
There is no Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. Approval of the recommended
action will provide State General Fund revenue for continued emergency medical services coordination of
the four-county region: Fresno, Kings, Madera, and Tulare, pursuant to Section 1797.108 of the California
Health and Safety(H&S) Code. The funding may only be used to maintain and improve the Emergency
Medical Services (EMS)system and continue essential minimum program activities. The recommended
Agreement provides State Funds and requires local program funding from the four counties mentioned
above. This item is countywide.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S):
There are no viable alternative actions. Should your Board not approve the recommended action, the
Department of Public Health (Department)would be unable to fund personnel and service costs associated
with the administration of the EMS system for the four-county region.
RETROACTIVE AGREEMENT:
The recommended Agreement was received from the California Emergency Medical Services Authority
(EMSA) on August 9, 2024 and is retroactive to July 1, 2024 and is being brought to your Board in
accordance with the agenda item processing timelines.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no increase in Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. The recommended
action will provide $960,447 in State General Funds, an increase of$502 from prior year's award for Central
California EMS Agency. The allocation allows for reimbursement of personnel ($471,807), fringe benefits
($174,569), communications ($31,635), and software/software maintenance ($195,124) costs, but limits
reimbursement of indirect costs up to 10% ($87,312). The County's indirect cost rate is 24.426%; the
remaining $93,246 in indirect costs for personnel costs and fringe benefits will be covered with Health
Realignment. Sufficient appropriations and estimated revenues are included in the Department's
Organization 5620 FY 2024-25 Adopted Budget. There are no pending invoices related to this revenue
agreement.

DISCUSSION:
As the designated Local EMS Agency (LEMSA) pursuant to H&S, section 1797.108, the Department's
Emergency Services Division, also referred to as the Central California EMS Agency (CCEMSA), has the
responsibility to provide complete oversight and administration of emergency medical services throughout
the four-county region: Fresno, Kings, Madera and Tulare. The County is responsible for all H&S Code,
Division 2.5 local EMS agency functions. The EMSA identifies the following as potential benefits derived
from a regional EMS Agency:
• reducing administrative and program costs;
• standardizing system coordination of emergency response and patient flow;
• focusing of regional EMS concerns;
• providing more effective impacts at the State level; and,
• matching administrative boundaries with natural systems.
The recommended agreement will support existing staffing and services to the entire EMS region and
recovers any Fresno County costs that may have been used to support the administration of services in the
other counties. The additional funding assists in providing dispatch and technology services in the rural
areas of the region.
The recommended agreement for multi-county emergency medical services coordination contains
non-standard termination language as it allows the State to terminate the agreement immediately for cause
and without cause upon giving the County at least 30-days advanced written notice. The County may
submit a written request to terminate the agreement only if the State should substantially fail to perform its
responsibilities in the agreement.
The recommended agreement deviates from the County's standard indemnification and insurance language
and requires the County to indemnify the State of California, EMSA, and/or any of their officers, agents
and/or employees regardless of the existence or degree of negligence or fault.
OTHER REVIEWING AGENCIES:
The Health Directors and Administrative Officers of Kings, Madera, and Tulare Counties support the
continuation of the Central California EMS Agency.

Budget Detail
We are very appreciative of the BCP funding from the State. It has given us great relief and allows us to maintain
service levels across the region. Funding this year continues to be allocated to the original justified areas. Priority
areas have been targeted with funding allocations that are not expected to change in the subsequent years.
Communications—This cost represents the current county cost for radio access charges for EMS
Communications. This amount accounts for approx. 25 radios used in the rural and partner counties at a rate of
$105.45 per radio/per month.
Software/Software Maintenance-This cost represents a portion of the ongoing computer aided dispatch
software and software annual maintenance costs for partner counties and rural communities. The budgeted cost
represents the EMS Communications Center annual software maintenance cost for the Central Square Dispatch
System and software, which provides the primary dispatch for the EMS Region.
Data Collection and Evaluation software is currently in the process of being purchased through one-time grant
funds. The pursuit of grant funds for this item was initiated once it was verified that the BCP funds would be
approved. The BCP funding will be used to provide support costs for the new data collection and evaluation
software.
Administrative/Indirect Cost:
Fresno County has chosen to claim the 10% overhead/indirect cost allowed by the State. The 24.426% of indirect
cost rates are currently applied in Fresno County, and the cost includes administrative support, departmental
support and county overhead. Since the agreement is limited to 10% indirect cost, Fresno County will assume the
responsibilities of the unreimburseable 14.426% indirect costs.
