CIRANNA, GENERAL MANAGER SUBJECT: APPROVAL TO ISSUE A REQUEST FOR PROPOSAL FOR INDEPENDENT MEDICAL EXAM SERVICES AND RECORD REVIEWS AND POSSIBLE BOARD ACTION RECOMMENDATION That the Board authorize the General Manager to issue a Request for Proposal (RFP) for independent medical exam services and record reviews. BACKGROUND Pursuant to City Charter and Administrative Code requirements, LAFPP members who file for a disability pension must be examined by and a written report thereon rendered by a minimum of three (3) licensed and practicing physicians (other than the member’s treating physician or Worker’s Compensation doctor). The physicians also review the member’s prior medical records in preparing their report. Additionally, except in those instances in which the Board has determined that, due to the nature of the disability, no purpose would be served in having periodic medical examinations to determine whether a retired member is still disabled, a retired member may be required to undergo periodic medical examinations. In regard to survivor benefit applications when LAFPP members die while still active, a doctor’s report is required before a Board hearing can be conducted to determine whether the deceased member’s death was service-connected. Per Board Operating Policies and Procedures Section 3.7.B., the deceased member’s medical records must be reviewed by a minimum of one (1) qualified physician to establish an informed/objective/evidence-based medical opinion. DISCUSSION Staff currently utilizes Havura Enterprises LLC (Havura) and contracts with local panel physicians on an as-needed basis to perform exams, review medical records, and write reports in accordance with LAFPP guidelines and standards. Staff uses these doctors’ reports as the basis to prepare recommendations to the Board. Operating out of Arizona, Havura has maintained a panel of physicians who provide disability medical evaluation services (exams, record reviews, report writing) to LAFPP since 1994. These services have historically been provided on a non-contractual basis, which has provided staff with a degree of flexibility. However, in the past three years Havura has reduced their staff and is currently only providing services to LAFPP. Over time the available panel of doctors has diminished thus limiting the available appointments and increasing the distance that members must travel to see a doctor. Contracting directly with local panel physicians is also problematic. Staff must conduct research to locate qualified physicians that are willing to adhere to City contracting requirements. Staff believes there is value to identifying one or more companies to provide a larger pool of physicians within a range of specialties. By contracting with one or more companies, doctors could be closer to member residences, costs can potentially be reduced through negotiation and new member services could be utilized. On March 22, 2017, staff released a Request for Information (RFI) to: 1) explore the range of services that are currently provided by industry firms that specialize in performing independent medical examinations and record reviews; 2) learn about the latest industry best practices; and 3) consider optional resources to improve member services and reduce claims processing time. As a result of the RFI, a total of seven (7) respondents, both local and out-of-state, submitted information in April 2017. From the information gathered, Staff will be able to develop a comprehensive RFP to identify firms that offer: (1) access to a broader panel of physicians in a variety of specialties, i.e., orthopedics, neurology, internal medicine, cardiology, psychiatry, etc.; (2) appointment scheduling services; (3) offer transcription services and report preparation using LAFPP- defined medical evaluation criteria; and (4) offer patient transportation services, if needed. Upon approval by the Board, the RFP will be published on our website and the City’s website (Business Assistance Virtual Network - BAVN). Staff will also notify the seven (7) firms who responded to the RFI and mail notices to firms in similar industries. Staff anticipates the evaluation of responses, cost information and a recommendation for contract award to be presented to the Board no later than November 2017. BUDGET The 2017-2018 budget includes a total of $330,000 for disability medical exam services and record reviews. POLICY No policy changes are recommended. This report was prepared by: Kyle Susswain, Manager Disability Pensions Section RPC:JS:GM:KS:LT Board Report Page 2 August 3, 2017 DEPARTMENT OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSIONS 701 E 3rd Street, Suite 200 Los Angeles, CA 90013 (213) 279-3000 REPORT TO THE BOARD OF FIRE AND POLICE PENSION COMMISSIONERS DATE: AUGUST 3, 2017 ITEM: A.2 FROM: RAYMOND P. CIRANNA, GENERAL MANAGER SUBJECT: HEADQUARTER FACILITY PROJECT – CLOSE-OUT REPORT AND POSSIBLE BOARD ACTION RECOMMENDATION That the Board receive and file the Close-Out Report on the Headquarters Building. DISCUSSION In December 2012, the Board authorized Sentinel Real Estate Corporation, one of the Board’s separate account real estate managers, to enter into a contract to purchase The Neptune Building. Subsequently in April 2013, the Board approved the purchase of the building for $12.8 million. The escrow closed on July 24, 2013 at a final purchase price of $12,730,000 plus closing costs. This purchase completed the search for a headquarters building that spanned several years. The Neptune Building is a 54,000 square foot four-story office building that was constructed in 1924. It is located at 701 E. 3rd Street on the Northeast corner of E. 3rd Street and Alameda Street. Staff currently occupies floors 2 – 4 and will continue leasing the 1st floor suites to generate revenue. The initial building purchase included a non-adjacent parking lot with twenty spaces that is located on E.

  • Venture Capital Postively Disrupts
    PRIVATE CLIENT SERIES VENTURE CAPITAL POSITIVELY DISRUPTS INTERGENERATIONAL INVESTING Families of wealth face three key questions about intergenerational wealth planning: how best to invest to sustain future generations; how best to engage the next genera- tion; and how best to ensure family unity endures. Often each question is addressed independently. We find that a conversation across generations about the impact of a meaningful venture capital (VC) allocation can help address all three questions in an integrated manner. Venture capital offers the potential for attractive returns relative to public equity markets, often in a tax-advantaged manner, thus allowing the portfolio to generate more wealth to support current and future generations. Bringing the next generation into the conversation about the changing investing landscape also offers the oppor- tunity for both generations to learn about the unique aspects of VC investing and the critical role it can play in the family’s portfolio. Furthermore, the vast potential that exists for making lasting impact through VC, both in terms of financial returns and contributions to society, may provide unifying experiences across generations. For many families, venture investing may provide a connection to the original roots of entrepreneurship that created the family wealth. As VC spurs continued innovation and industry disruption, families should consider the potential positive disruption the inclusion of VC can bring to their intergenerational investment plans. This paper provides some context for considering such an inclusion by discussing the investment potential and implications for interested investors. Venture, the source of future returns Whether it be cloud computing, machine learning, or artificial intelligence, emerging technologies are transforming many industries.

  • Private Equity
    Private Equity: Accomplishments and Challenges by Greg Brown, University of North Carolina; Bob Harris, University of Virginia; Steve Kaplan, University of Chicago; Tim Jenkinson, University of Oxford; and David Robinson, Duke University ince the 1980s, there has been an ongoing discussion about the role of private S equity (PE) in the economy. As investors have flocked to the asset class, voices critical of the negative social impact of PE have grown louder. In this article, we examine what is known from the academic literature about the effects of private equity on corporate productivity, the returns for investors, and possible broader economic and social consequences. We catalogue what we believe to be strong evidence of the overall benefits of PE-backed companies and investors in private equity, as well as spillovers in the form of broader gains in economic productivity. We also describe apparent instances of PE shortcomings in some specific industries where negative social impacts can be measured in some way. In our view, private equity is “capitalism in high gear” and, Back to the 1980s as such, subject to most of the same debates concerning Our account of private equity begins at the end of the 1980s, economic and social conditions in a free enterprise system. when hostile takeovers and other often highly leveraged While some argue that the 2020 version of capitalism transactions, including a relative newcomer called the lever- (as practiced in the U.S. and much of the world) is inef- aged buyout (or LBO), came under fierce attack in both the fective in coping with current social needs, much of the press and conventional business circles.

    Agenda Item 7a CHRIS CHRISTIE DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY Governor DIVISION OF INVESTMENT KIM GUADAGNO P.O. BOX 290 FORD M. SCUDDER Lt. Governor TRENTON, NJ 08625-0290 Acting State Treasurer January 22, 2016 MEMORANDUM TO: The State Investment Council FROM: Christopher McDonough Director SUBJECT: Proposed Investment in Tenex Capital Partners II, L.P. The New Jersey Division of Investment (“Division”) is proposing an investment of up to $100 million in Tenex Capital Partners II, L.P. This memorandum is presented to the State Investment Council (the “Council”) pursuant to N.J.A.C. 17:16-69.9. Tenex Capital Management (“Tenex” or the “Firm”) is establishing Tenex Capital Partners II, L.P. to continue their successful strategy of leveraging the Firm’s unique combination of experience in operational restructurings, capital markets, and investment management to make control investments of industry laggards and return them to market competitive. The Division is recommending this investment based on the following factors: Differentiated Investment Style: Tenex targets companies with operational distress, typically looking to buy “B” and “C” companies from motivated sellers at attractive valuations, often through busted auctions where there are few competing buyers due to the operational distress. Meanwhile, Tenex has shown strong purchase price discipline, with an average entry Enterprise Value/ Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) multiple of 6.5x. Impressive Long Term Track Record: Prior to five of the Managing Directors forming Tenex in 2010, over a 10-year period, the Tenex team had participated in the investment of over $900 million in nine companies, which generated cash proceeds of $2.6 billion to yield a gross Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) of 35.8% and a 2.8x Multiple on Invested Capital (“MOIC”).
