Approval of this amendment will result in additional annual expenditures of up to $361,664 and are budgeted by 100% Mental Health Realignment funding. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

The County’s Behavioral Health Services Division/ Mental Health has an obligation to provide psychiatric physician services to patients, including medication management and therapy services. Therefore, County contracts with temporary help firms to ensure patient care is provided during peak loads, temporary absences, vacations or emergency situations when full staffing is required. This contractor has been providing temporary help services since July 1, 2006.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On December 7, 2021, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-277-25 with Jackson & Coker Locumtenens, LLC, in the amount of $1,438,336 for the provision of temporary psychiatric medical doctors and recruitment services at County’s Mental Health Outpatient Clinics, for the period January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022. This contract includes services provided by represented classifications and the County has met its obligations with the respective labor partner(s).

Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #74-277-27 will allow the contractor to provide additional temporary psychiatric medical services and recruitment services through December 31, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, this contractor will not be able to provide additional psychiatric medical and recruitment services for the County’s Mental Health Outpatient Clinics clients.
