RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Novation Contract #24-751-82 with Anka Behavioral Health Services, Incorporated, a non-profit corporation, in an amount not to exceed $3,541,579, to provide Community Services; Support programs and residential mental health services including, but not limited to: vocational, community living, socialization, and Medi-Cal rehabilitative programs for the period from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. This contract includes a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2015, in an amount not to exceed $1,770,790.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 47% by Mental Health Realignment, 15% Mental Health Services Act (MHSA), 38% Medi-Cal and Federal Financial Participation (Rate increase)

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved County clients will not receive mental health services provided by this Contractor.

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. Contractor will also be a partner in implementing County’s Community Services and Support Program.

On June 4, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #24-751-81 with Anka Behavioral Health, Incorporated for the provision of continuum of care services to mentally ill adults, for the period from July 1, 2013 through June 30, 2014, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2014.

Approval of Contract #24-751-82 replaces the automatic extension under the prior contract and will allow Contractor to continue providing services through June 30, 2015.
