RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee (Donna Wigand), to execute, on behalf of the County, Novation Contract #24–751–77 with Anka Behavioral Health, Incorporated, a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $2,221,738, to provide residential, community living, socialization, vocational and day treatment mental health services, for the period from July 1, 2009 through June 30, 2010. This Contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2010, in an amount not to exceed $1,110,869.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 35% by Federal FFP Medi-Cal and 65% by County Mental Health Realignment.

BACKGROUND:

This Contract meets the social needs of County’s population by providing a continuum of services to residents transitioning from crisis residential care to transitional residential care and keeps these clients out of higher levels of care, including State Hospitals.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On January 27, 2009, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #24–751–76 with Anka Behavioral Health, Incorporated, for the period from July 1, 2008 through June 30, 2009, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2009, for the provision of mental health program services for mentally disturbed adults.

Approval of Novation Contract #24–751–77 replaces the automatic extension under the prior Contract and allows the Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2010.
