Held at the SGVCOG offices, the meeting was intended to share concerns regarding the Valley's fair share of the County trauma care tax. Significant points of discussion include: ■ Allocation of Funds During FY 2003-2004, Measure B collected $170 million. Of this amount, $140 million, or 82.3% of the total, were allocated to the four county hospitals. The funds are to cover the County's costs of providing not only trauma, but also emergency services to, uninsured patients for FY 2002-03 as well. Of the $170 million total, $18.6 million (or 11 %) were allocated to the 10 private hospitals/trauma centers in the County trauma network to cover only trauma care services to the indigent, based on a per diem reimbursement schedule. Another $6 million will be used to support public health infrastructure to handle bioterrorism, and $1 million will be allocated for administrative uses. Lastly, $4.4 million or 2.6% of the total were allocated to expanding services in the underserved areas of Pomona, Baldwin Park/West Covina and Antelope Valley. Of the $4.4 million, $2 million was allocated to County Fire to purchase helicopters over the next 10 years. As a result, trauma helicopter service in the Antelope Valley is now available 24 hours per day. Should hospitals in these underserved areas enter the trauma network in the future, then funds not expensed will be reallocated to these hospitals for reimbursement of services to the uninsured. It is important to note that of the $170 million collected, San Gabriel Valley residents and businesses contributed approximately $33.7 million or 19.8% of the total. ■ Annual Levy - For FY 2003-2004, the tax rate was set at 3 cents per square foot of structural improvements on the property, not including the square footage for parking. For each year after the FY 2003-2004, the BOS is to set the tax rate by majority vote. In any fiscal year, the tax rate cannot be higher than 3 cents per square foot, but can be adjusted by any cumulative increases to the medical component of the Consumer Price Index. In any fiscal year, if the BOS does not set the rate, the tax rate of the preceding year will continue. Meyer indicated that for the FY 2004- 2005, the Board of Supervisors has decided to maintain the rate at 3 cents. Page 2 ■ Mission - The actual language of the Measure indicates that its general objectives in respect to trauma care was: ✓ To "avoid the life -threatening shutdown of Los Angeles County's trauma network," ✓ To "maintain all aspects of the Countywide System of Trauma Centers," and ✓ To "expand the System to cover all areas of the County." Both objectives are clearly stated in the proposition language that appeared on the. ballot., Meyer indicated that the most important objective of the Measure is the first objective - to prevent the public hospitals from closing down. She asserted that keeping these public hospitals open would prevent the overburdening of the private hospitals, indicating that it is in their best interest and their desire that the public hospitals remain open. The private hospitals do not want to take on the patients served by the county hospitals, especially the uninsured. ■ Insured vs. Uninsured - The language of the proposition is noticeably silent with respect to the specificity of the population to be served by this Measure. In fact, the proposition describes the impact on the current trauma and emergency system by both the growing number of uninsured patients, and the limitations of insurance reimbursement among insured patients.. However, the adopted policy of the Measure has focused on the uninsured and the funding of the County's emergency services. Measure B funds allocated to both private and public hospitals are to reimburse their costs of providing trauma and emergency services to uninsured patients. ■ San Gabriel Valley Expansion - In previous documents, the County asserted that an optimum trauma system would include three additional trauma centers that would be located in the Pomona, Baldwin Park/West Covina, and Antelope Valley areas. Two of these areas are located east of the 605 Freeway. Meyer reconfirmed this County position regarding its desire to establish designated, Trauma Centers in Pomona and Baldwin Park/West Covina. There was consensus at the meeting that the Pomona Valley Hospital and Queen of the Valley Hospital in West Covina were the most viable sites. Meyer indicated that the County supports the development of two trauma centers in the San Gabriel Valley, indicating that funds are available for trauma center operations. However, to become a part of the County trauma network, a hospital should be designated as a Level One or Two trauma center, which essentially means that the hospital must have full-time on - staff medical staff (particularly a surgeon and anesthesiologist). Both Pomona Valley and Queen of the Valley are Level 3 trauma centers. For the two hospitals to meet this requirement, important challenges or obstacles need to be overcome: ✓ The high capital and other start-up costs, such as construction. of a heliport and infrastructure expansion, associated with establishing a trauma center. ✓ The difficulties with securing full-time trauma medical teams, especially the surgeon and anesthesiologist, to commit 100% to these hospitals. ■ Next Steps - The Task Force will meet with representatives of both Pomona Valley Hospital and Queen of the Valley to discuss the cost issues and partnership opportunities, and perhaps to develop a strategy to move forward with developing the two trauma centers in the San Gabriel Valley. Meyer indicated that the County may be willing to pay for one-time startup costs, and that she and the County would be willing to assist and work.with the Task Force. Memorandum from Mike Miller To: City Council Members October 11, 2004 City Manager From: Michael Miller Mayor Subject: Southern California Association of Governments - Regional Comprehensive Plan Task Force The Southern California Association of Governments (SCAG) — Regional Comprehensive Plan Task Force met o November 22. Attached is the agenda for this meeting. This Task Force is reviewing the Plan for possible update and recommendation to the SCAG Committees and Regional Council. The Plan includes sections on Air Quality, Land Use, Housing, Transportation, Environment, and Waste Management. Attached are the work sheets for Land Use and Housing just to give you some idea of what the Task Force will be examining. This is a required ten year review. The Federal and State Agencies that fund various elements of the plan require this review. An. up to date plan will be accepted by these agencies and will be the basis for their finding of conformance for any funding SCAG or any member counties and cities may request from the Federal and State agencies. This review and update is the equivalent to the City updating their General Plan. The Energy and Environment Committee meeting scheduled for December 2 was canceled. I will continue attending meetings of this Committee in the future. This report is provided to your information. Michael L.
