Name of Contracting Agency: City of Corpus Christi La Retama Public Library Address of Contracting Agency: La Retama Public Library Greenwood Branch 4044 Greenwood Corpus Christi, Texas Telephone Number: 512/854 -2356 Contractor Negotiation Person: Marjorie Atkinson Person Authorized to Sign Contract: Marvin Townsend Type of Organization: Local City Government II. Proposed Services The La Retama Public Library will operate a central dispatch clearinghouse that will handle all necessary telephone com- munications in linking authorized DPW medical transportationfor clients with the subcontracting transportation service pro- viders. As the La Retama Public Library is currently opera- ting an information center, these services can be coordina- ted with dispatch clearinghouse quite easily. Hours of clear- inghouse would be 8:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through Friday. As information center hours are from 9:00 am to 9:00 pm Monday thru Thursday and 9:00 am to 6:00 pm on Friday, personnel would be available to handle incoming calls after 5:00 pm. However, as DPW San Antonio Watts Line office will operate only 8 hours per day, 8:00 am to 5:00 pm, calls before or after these times are not anticipated. One staff person, working from 8:00 am to 12 :00 noon would be charged to the program. From 12 :00 noon to 5:00 pm information center per- sonnel will handle all necessary communication linking medi- cal transportation clients with the service providers. Neces- sary information to be relayed to the service provider will include client name, address, time of doctor's appointment, and location of client's doctor. Eligibility of DPW clients will be determined at the DPW Region IV office in San Antonio. The telephone dispatcher at the clearinghouse will maintain a log of all long distance calls made to the subcontracting agencies as documentation for monthly telephone charges to the program. O a Total budget for the clearinghouse is $4,456, with operations commencing on September 1, 1975, and continuing through August 31, 1976. Contracting will be on a cost reimbursement basis. The clearinghouse will provide CBCOG with a monthly statement of expenditures. III. Staffing Arrangements Telephone Dispatcher The Telephone Dispatcher will be responsible for handling all necessary communications linking DPW medical transportation clients to various transportation service providers. This includes answering incoming telephone calls from the DPW Region IV Office and placing calls to the corresponding ser- vice providers relaying information given to him /her by DPW.
