Centre County commissioners question proposed health services contract after staff cites $1.26 million 2025 cost
During questions from commissioners about the county's health services contract for the facility discussed in the meeting, staff reported that the county paid $1,260,948 for the contract in 2025. A commissioner asked whether the proposed new contract figure of about $1.6 million is a flat amount and whether it contains escalators.

A staff member responded that the contract includes a 4% maximum escalator for the last four years of the agreement and that the escalator language ties adjustments to the 12‑month average of the cost‑of‑living index for medical care services. "It's based on the 12 month average of the cost of living index for medical care services," the staff member said.

Commissioners thanked Prime Care for supplemental services including mental health, dentistry and medication‑assisted therapy, and the chair noted the county received a state grant described in the meeting as "half of $1,000,000" toward the program; meeting notes interpret that phrasing as a $500,000 grant though the speaker's language was imprecise. The discussion concluded without a formal vote on the new contract; the board moved into an executive session to consider personnel and legal matters immediately after the public meeting.
