BOARD OF DIRECTORS
October 23, 1985
Dear Members,
We, the Board of Directors of Valley Memorial Hospital, have just completed an exhaustive
review of the hospital's development plan for the next decade. Paramount in our minds
during this deliberation has been the requirement to retain all present services at our
Livermore Hospital. Meeting this imperative and creating a plan to meet the health service
needs of all communities in the hospital service area has been a huge task. Our efforts have
been assisted by our cooperative study with John Muir Memorial Hospital and Alta Bates
Corporation.'
The Board is pleased to recommend a three-phase plan to enhance services in Livermore,
and establish complementary services on the hospital property in Pleasanton. You will be
asked to vote on Phase I of this plan in December 1985. Phase II and Phase III will be
presented to you separately for approval. Over the next two months we will be sending you
detailed information. We will also schedule several meetings so that you can personally
discuss the proposal with us.
If approved, Phase I will be pursued immediately in cooperation with John Muir Memorial
Hospital and Alta Bates Corporation. This project's expected cost is $15 to 20 million to be
shared by the Joint Venture Partners and will include the development of three new facilities
in Pleasanton:
• a Medical Office Building housing up to 40 physicians;
• an Outpatient Center offering x-ray, laboratory, outpatient surgery, pharmacy, and
other diagnostic services and;
• a Behavorial Medicine Center providing inpatient and outpatient diagnoses and
treatment for patients suffering from conditions such as chronic pain, substance abuse
and stress-related conditions.
Phase II of our plan will continue to expand our joint ventures with other hospitals to allow
Valley Memorial to serve more residents of the Valley through new health insurance programs.
In addition, further development of health care facilities is planned, including:
• a Skilled Nursing Facility for patients who need nursing care but no longer require the
level of care provided in the hospital;
• an Extended Care Home for geriatric patients needing 24-hour care for long periods;
• an Elderly Housing Complex providing a supportive environment for older patients who
are able to live independently.
This phase may be developed in Livermore and/or Pleasanton, but in no event will it decrease
the services presently provided in Livermore.
Phase III will build on our joint venture. relationships developed in earlier projects. Using a
two-pronged approach, Phase III will:
• completely remodel the Livermore Hospital to meet the demands of the 1990's, and
• establish an acute inpatient hospital in Pleasanton to care for the increasing
West Valley population.
Phase III will not decrease the services presently provided in Livermore.

the information which we will provide and ask for your approval to proceed with Phase I.

Dear Gene:
I would like .to confirm John Muir Hospital's sincere interest and commitment
to Valley Memorial Hospital's effort to develop the Pleasanton site. We are com-
mitted to mutually coordinate and develop new health facilities, services, programs
and delivery systems appropriate to the Pleasanton site consistent with Valley's
commitment to its community.
Our commitment is made within the framework of delivering needed health care
service to the Pleasanton, Dublin and San Ramon communities. We understand
that the above objectives will require capital funding from each participant.
John Muir is prepared to join with Valley, to meet its financial contribution to
insure the success of this endeavor.
We believe this venture offers the partners the opportunity to explore various
alternatives to create a true system approach to health care delivery. We also
feel a sense of urgency exists to establish a presence at the Pleasanton site.
Such services as outpatient surgery, inpatient psychiatry, a diagnostic center
and a medical office building need to be considered immediately for the Phase
I development of this site.
r
We look forward to your response indicating a desire to mutually pursue this venture
to develop the Pleasanton site.
Sincerely
Z J. dall Anderson

Dear Gene:
Alta Bates Corporation remains strongly committed to the timely and rational
development of health care services throughout the Tri-Valley area, and
specifically in the communities of Livermore and Pleasanton. During the past
four months of study and deliberation, through the Joint Venture Task Force,
we have become increasingly convinced of the significance of this development
for Valley Memorial Hospital . At the same time, we believe it is key to the
type of integrated, voluntary health care financing and delivery system we all
hope to see developed in our region.
Based on the understanding that intial development of health care services at
the Pleasanton site can and will proceed in a manner consistent with this
larger goal , Alta Bates Corporation will support and participate with Valley
Memorial Hospital in this development. We anticipate that further planning
will identify the appropriate steps to be taken in this regard, and will
define to the satisfaction of all concerned the roles, responsibilities and
contributions of each participant.
We look forward to continuing to work with Valley Memorial Hospital in this
critical endeavor.
