RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract Amendment Agreement #74-586-2 with A Better Way, Inc., a non-profit corporation, effective March 1, 2020, to amend Novation Contract #74-586-1, to modify the rates, with no change in the original Payment Limit of $376,278 and no change in the original term of July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, and no change in the six-month automatic extension amount of $188,139 through December 31, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This amendment is funded by 50% Federal Medi-Cal and 50% Employment and Human Services Department. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On July 23, 2019, the Board of Supervisors approved Novation Contract #74-586-1 with A Better Way, Inc., for the provision of mental health services to children and adolescents, and their families, who are dependents of Contra Costa County, referred by Child Family Services and placed out of County, for the period from July 1, 2019 through June 30, 2020, which included a six-month automatic extension through December 31, 2020.  
  
Approval of Contract Amendment Agreement #74-568-2 will allow the Contractor to continue to provide services, through June 30, 2020.
