Currently the annual contract with Dr. Homero Sanchez is $36,000.00 annually. The compensation terms require the Doctor to provide an itemized listing of all calls, patients, services provided during any given month of service. This has increased the actual cost of monthly services and is more cost effective to charge a fixed amount. The Sheriff's Office is recommending to mirror the annual contract amount for the Jail Dentist at $42,000.00. Dr. Homero Sanchez has agreed to accept this fixed amount regardless of the number of times he takes calls from Jail staff and/or visits inmates at Jail facility to provide mental health services.
