RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-784-8 (State #03-75796, A11) with the State of California, Department of Health Care Services (DHCS), effective July 1, 2015 for the rates, to amend Standard Agreement #29-784 (as amended by Amendment Agreements #29-784-1 through #29-784-7), with no change in the original payment limit of $1,594,000, to extend the term from December 31, 2015 through December 31, 2016, to allow the County to continue providing Local Initiative Program services.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this amendment will reflect no change in the original amount payable to County of $1,594,000 for the Local Initiative Program services that are not approved for Federal funding. No County match required.

Approval of Standard Agreement (Amendment) #29-784-8 will allow the County to continue providing Local Initiative Program services that are not approved for Federal funding, through December 31, 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this amendment is not approved, funding for continuous services to County Medi-Cal recipients will not be provided.
