Agenda 04/22/2025 Item #16F 2 (Approve the Third Amendment to the Emergency Services Deputy Medical Director Agreement to appoint Douglas S. Lee, M.D. as Interim Medical Director, increase his compensation accordingly, extend the agreement term.)4/22/2025 Item # 16.F.2 ID# 2025-1159 Executive Summary Recommendation to approve a Third Amendment to the Collier County Emergency Services Deputy Medical Director Agreement to name Douglas S. Lee, M.D. the Interim Medical Director, increase his compensation to that of the Medical Director, extend the Agreement term, and authorize the Chairman to sign the attached Amendment. OBJECTIVE: To continue to provide the County exemplary pre-hospital emergency medical care services. CONSIDERATIONS: Per Florida State Statute Chapter 401, an Emergency Medical Services system must contract with a Medical Director to provide medical oversight, training, and protocols. On January 28, 2014, the Board approved the Collier County Emergency Services Medical Director Agreement naming Robert Boyd Tober, M.D. as the County’s Medical Director, and effective February 1, 2014, the Board approved the Collier County Emergency Services Deputy Medical Director Agreement (hereafter the “Agreement”) with Douglas S. Lee, M.D. (the “Deputy Medical Director”). On April 26, 2016, the Board approved the First Amendment to the Agreement to increase the Deputy Medical Director’s compensation, extend the term of the position, and provide further specifications as to the scope of work. On March 22, 2022, the Board approved the Second Amendment to extend the Agreement’s term to April 26, 2025, and to further increase the Deputy Medical Director’s compensation. Dr. Tober has tendered his resignation effective April 26, 2025, and the County is currently in the process of soliciting for a new Medical Director, which the County last awarded in 2014. As the solicitation and contract negotiation process will not be concluded before April 26, and a Medical Director is required during the interim, staff is recommending that Dr. Lee serves as the Interim Medical Director for a period of 180 days, or until a new Agreement is executed (whichever comes first), and that he receive an increase in compensation consistent with the currently established Medical Director position. This will allow the County to continue to provide high quality, uninterrupted medical services, and be in compliance with State statutes. This item is consistent with the Collier County strategic plan objective to support and enhance our commitment to robust public safety services. FISCAL IMPACT: The Medical Director was set to earn $15,193.83 per month under Agreement 13-6081. The funding for this position is included in the FY 2025 budget within Emergency Medical Services Fund (4050). GROWTH MANAGEMENT IMPACT: There is no Growth Management impact associated with this action. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: This item is approved as to form and legality and requires majority vote for Board approval. —SRT RECOMMENDATIONS: To approve a Third Amendment to the Collier County Emergency Services Deputy Medical Director Agreement to name Douglas S. Lee, M.D. the Interim Medical Director, increase his compensation to that of the Medical Director, extend the Agreement term, and authorize the Chairman to sign the attached Amendment.
