Additional Comments: |
Amendment 7 - Academic Year 2022 - 2023; Terminates early upon execution of an Academic Health Center Master Affiliation Agreement |
BACKGROUND:
On May 25, 2016, the Governing Board approved the Preliminary Affiliation Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Board of Regents of the Nevada System of Higher Education on behalf of the Kirk Kerkorian School of Medicine at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas (“UNLV School of Medicine”) under which both parties agreed to work together to set the framework for the creation of a premier academic health center that integrates the expertise of UNLV School of Medicine with the resources of UMC to enhance teaching, promote health care innovation, and improve access to health care for Southern Nevadans.
The Agreement Term, as amended, continues for the earlier of ten (10) years ending June 20, 2026 or the execution of an Academic Health Center Master Affiliation Agreement.
This Seventh Amendment requests to amend (i) Section 6.1(c) on requirements for resident salary reimbursement and (ii) Schedule 1 to set the Resident Salaries and Academic Mission Support for Academic Year 2022 - 2023. The parties are currently negotiating the terms of the Master Affiliation Agreement for Graduate Medical Education and the Medical Student Affiliation Agreement, both of which have no financial component but will be presented to the Governing Board upon finalization for review and approval.
The parties are authorized to enter into this Agreement pursuant to Article 11, Section 4 of the Constitution of the State of Nevada; Chapters 396, 450 and 277 of the Nevada Revised Statutes; and certain other inherent, express, and necessarily implied powers and authority.
UMC’s Academic & External Affairs Administrator has reviewed and recommends approval of this Amendment. This Amendment has been approved as to form by UMC’s Office of General Counsel.
The Department of Business License has determined that UNLV School of Medicine is not required to obtain a Clark County business license nor a vendor registration since School is part of the Nevada System of Higher Education, which is an entity of the State of Nevada.
This Amendment was reviewed by the Governing Board at their June 29, 2022 meeting and recommended for approval by the Board of Hospital Trustees.
