RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #74-341-32(7) with Aurora Adrianna Mandy, MFT (dba Delta Counseling), an individual, in an amount not to exceed $132,000, to provide Medi-Cal mental health specialty services for the period from July 1, 2015 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 50% State General Fund; 50% Federal Medi-Cal. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On January 14, 1997, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution #97/17, authorizing the Health Services Director to contract with the State Department of Mental Health to assume responsibility for Medi-Cal mental health specialty services. Responsibility for outpatient mental health specialty services involves contracts with individual, group and organizational providers to deliver these services.

On July 16, 2013, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-341-32(4) with Aurora Adrianna Mandy, MFT (dba Delta Counseling) [as amended by Contract amendment #74-341-32(6)] for the period from July 1, 2013, through June 30, 2015, for the provision of Medi-Cal mental health specialty services.

Approval of Contract #74-341-32(7) will allow Contractor to continue providing mental health services through June 30, 2017.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, services provided to Contra Costa Mental Health Plan Medi-Cal beneficiaries could be negatively impacted, including access to services, choice of providers, cultural competency, language capacity, geographical locations of service providers, and waiting lists.
