RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #77-220-1 with Anne Marie Gjestson (dba P.L.A.Y. - Psychology, Learning & You), a sole proprietor, in an amount not to exceed $600,000, to provide Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA) services to Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) members and County recipients, for the period April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $600,000 over a three-year period and will be funded 100% by CCHP Enterprise Fund II revenues. (Rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide certain specialized behavioral health care treatment services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. This contractor has been in the CCHP Provider Network providing ABA services since April 1, 2019.

In May 2019, the County Administrator approved and the Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #77-220 with Anne Marie Gjestson (dba P.L.A.Y. - Psychology, Learning & You), in an amount not to exceed $90,000 for the provision of ABA services for CCHP members for the period from April 1, 2019 through March 31, 2022.

Approval of Contract #77-220-1 will allow the contractor to continue providing ABA services through March 31, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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