RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #24-708-1 with Select, Inc. (dba Select Practice Opportunity), a corporation, in an amount not to exceed $110,000, to provide recruitment services for psychiatrists for Behavioral Health Services Division/Mental Health’s Adult Outpatient Psychiatry Program, for the period from December 1, 2014 through November 30, 2015.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% by Mental Health Realignment. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On March 11, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #24-708 with the Contractor to provide recruitment services for psychiatrists for Behavioral Health Services Division/Mental Health’s Adult Outpatient Psychiatry Program including, but not limited to, recruiting, screening and interviewing qualified psychiatrists who the County may hire for permanent placement, through November 30, 2014.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

Approval of Contract #24-708-1 will allow the Contractor to continue providing recruitment services, through November 30, 2015.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County will not have access to Contractor’s psychiatrist recruitment services for permanent psychiatrists and Department would have to rely more heavily on temporary staffing contracts.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
