RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #77-421 with Telemedicine Group P.C. (dba TeleMed2U), a professional corporation, in an amount not to exceed $1,200,000, to provide behavioral telehealth and other behavioral health specialty services for Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) members and County recipients for the period from January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2022.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in annual expenditures of up to $1,200,000 and will be funded 100% by CCHP Enterprise Fund II revenues.

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide certain specialized behavioral health services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. Services for behavioral telehealth include electronic video and communication technologies to facilitate outpatient therapy services including diagnosis, consultation, treatment, education, and care management services for CCHP members. This is a new contractor to be part of the CCHP Provider Network.

Under Contract #77-421, the contractor will provide behavioral telehealth and other behavioral health specialty services to CCHP members and County recipients through December 31, 2022.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, certain specialized behavioral health services for CCHP members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County will not be provided.
