Bloom Energy Fuel Cells

Form A - Bloom Energy.doc

TO: Board of Directors MEETING DATE: Monday, September 12, 2011 FROM: Barbara Hamilton, System Sustainability Manager BY: Board Finance Committee Monday, August 29, 2011 Background: In addition to Energy Efficiency measures across the health system, Facilities and Sustainability have reviewed opportunities for alternative energy generation. With current Federal and State incentives, a Bloom Energy Solid Oxide Fuel Cell project for PPH (1 MW at each of the three hospital campuses) would save millions of dollars over the life of the project, as well as reduce the human health and environmental impacts of our high energy demands. Budget Impact: Positive – $7,560,000 (potentially as much as $8.5 million) California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) incentive paid directly to PPH. Estimated $54.5 million in cumulative cash savings over 20-year life.

Staff Recommendation: Approval of the Bloom Energy Fuel Cell project

Committee Questions:

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Board Finance Committee recommends approval of a request to move forward with a project to install Bloom Energy Solid Oxide Fuel Cells as an alternative energy solution at all three campuses, subject to Management’s finalization of due diligence, including the accounting structure and the ability to finance the project without affecting the District’s cash flow or debt capacity.

BridgeSpine Supply Agreement

Form A - BridgeSpine.doc

TO: Board of Directors MEETING DATE: Monday, September 12, 2011 FROM: Natalie Bennett, Manager Program Development BY: Board Finance Committee Monday, August 29, 2011 Background: Currently at PPH, any spine implant vendor can do business at PPH as long as the vendor is willing to meet our annually established construct pricing. BridgeSpine is a Physician Owned Distributor (POD) that is interested in doing business at PPH. This contract is a supply vendor agreement for spinal implants that would initiate on October 1, 2011. As the vendor is a physician-owned company, with the physician owners also practicing professionally at PPH, the agreement is being brought forth through the Board Finance Committee, consistent with policy, for consideration.

Budget Impact: No additional budget impact to PPH, as the costs associated will meet the established construct pricing parameters applicable to all vendor agreements.

Staff Recommendation: Staff recommended approval of the agreement.

Committee Questions: The Board Finance Committee questioned the legality of PODs and was assured by counsel that they are legal entities under current laws; however, that designation is under review and may change in the future.

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: Reviewed and recommended approval of a request to enter into a legally formed agreement with the physician owned distributor (POD) BridgeSpine, such agreement to be reasonable and consistent with fair market value and to be entered into with the understanding that it must contain an immediate cease and desist clause in the event that PODs become illegal. Also supportive of the business reasons behind PODs and recommended that a Board policy be developed through the Board Governance Committee to cover these arrangements on a go-forward basis.

Form A - San Marcos.doc

TO: Board of Directors MEETING DATE: Monday, September 12, 2011 FROM: Vicky Lister, FACHE, Executive Director, Arch Health Partners BY: Board Finance Committee Monday, August 29, 2011 Background: Arch Health Partners (AHP) continues to recruit Primary Care Physicians to achieve its long-term strategic plan of growing primary care to support PPH specialists and service lines. Recently, AHP recruited Cheng Lin (Oliver) Lee, M.D., to begin practice in San Marcos. Dr. Lee’s recruiting assistance agreement was approved at last month’s Board Finance Committee and Board meetings. AHP plans to lease Suite 205 of the SMACC Building from PPH to open a new office location. The suite is adjacent to PPH’s Corporate Health office. The addition of X-ray equipment in the office will also benefit Corporate Health patients. In addition to Dr. Lee, AHP will staff the office with either a combination of a Nurse Practitioner, a Physician’s Assistant or another physician.

Budget Impact: The opening of an office in San Marcos, in Suite 205 of the SMACC Building, requires an equity transfer from PPH in the amount of $268,000. This funding will be used for tenant improvements, as well as for the purchase of hardware/software, furniture and equipment, including an X-ray unit, for the office.

Staff Recommendation: PPH Management recommended approval at the Board Finance Committee meeting.

Committee Questions:

COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION: The Board Finance Committee recommends approval for an equity transfer of $268,000 to assist Arch Health Partners in the opening of an office in Suite 205 of the SMACC Building, located at 120 Craven Road in San Marcos, for the provision of primary care services.
