RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County Contract #77-339-1 with The ABC Group, L.L.C., a limited liability company, in an amount not to exceed $2,200,000, to provide behavioral health treatment (BHT) services for Contra Costa Health Plan (CCHP) members for the period from June 1, 2023 through May 31, 2025.

FISCAL IMPACT:

Approval of this contract will result in contractual service expenditures of up to $2,200,000 over a two-year period and will be funded 100% by CCHP Enterprise Fund II. This contract includes additional rates.

BACKGROUND:

CCHP has an obligation to provide certain specialized BHT services for its members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County. This contractor has been a part of the CCHP Provider Network since June 1, 2021.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

On June 22, 2021 the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #77-339 with A Behavioral Health Cooperative, LLC, (now known as The ABC Group, L.L.C.) in the amount not to exceed $2,400,000 for the provision of BHT services including ABA and Comprehensive Diagnostic Evaluations (CDE) for CCHP members for the period June 1, 2021 through May 31, 2023.

Approval of Contract #77-339-1 will allow the contractor to continue providing BHT services including ABA and CDE for CCHP members through May 31, 2025.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, certain BHT services for CCHP members under the terms of their Individual and Group Health Plan membership contracts with the County will not be provided by this contractor which may cause a delay in members receiving services.
