Title
Resolution authorizing the Milwaukee Fire Department to enter into an agreement with Managed Health Services Insurance Corp. in connection with Community Paramedic services.

Analysis
This resolution authorizes the Milwaukee Fire Department (MFD) to enter into an agreement with Managed Health Services Insurance Corp. (MHS) in connection with Community Paramedic services and the Mobile Integrated Health (MIH) Program as it relates to MHS members. It further authorizes the proper City officials to enter into this memorandum of understanding.

Body

Whereas, The Milwaukee Fire Department has implemented the Mobile Integrated Health Program to be proactive in its delivery of medical services to the citizens of Milwaukee by scheduling medical visits to the City’s most at-risk population in an effort to reduce unnecessary 9-1-1 calls and BLS and ALS transports; and

Whereas, Community Paramedic professionals are trained in using the core modules from the North Central EMS Institute’s Community Paramedic Curriculum; and

Whereas, The Milwaukee Fire Department will attempt to locate, enroll and engage MHS members into the MIH program; and

Whereas, The Milwaukee Fire Department will invoice MHS a total program cost not to exceed $1,200 per member without the approval of MHS; now, therefore, be it

Resolved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the attached agreement between the City of Milwaukee Fire Department and Managed Health Services Insurance Corp. to commence community paramedic services to MHS members, or a version substantively similar, and subject to such changes as the City Attorney may approve in negotiation with MHS, is approved; and, be it

Further Resolved, That the proper City officials are authorized to enter into this Agreement on behalf of the City of Milwaukee.
