RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, as follows: (1) Cancellation Agreement #74-286-14 with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., a corporation, effective on the close of business on September 30, 2016; and (2) Contract #74-286-15 with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc., a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $1,326,585, to provide mental health services to severely and persistently mentally ill (SPMI) adults, for the period from October 1, 2016 through June 30, 2017.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 44% Federal Financial Participation; 26% State Mental Health Services Act (MHSA); 30% Mental Health Realignment. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On December 15, 2015, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-286-13 with Crestwood Behavioral Health, Inc. for the provision of day treatment and mental health services to SPMI adults, for the period from January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016.

In consideration of Contractor’s agreement to continue providing services, both parties have agreed to re-negotiate the rate for adult residential day treatment. Therefore, in accordance with General Conditions Paragraph 5 (Termination), of the Contract, the Department and Contractor have agreed to a mutual cancellation of this Contract. Approval of Cancellation Agreement #74-286-14 will accomplish this termination.

Approval of Contract #74-286-15 will allow the Contractor to continue providing services, through June 30, 2017, including mutual indemnification to hold harmless both parties for any claims arising out of the performance of this Contract.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County’s SPMI clients will have reduced access to the mental health treatment services that they require.
