RECOMMENDATION(S):

Approve and authorize the Health Services Director, or his designee, to execute, on behalf of the County, Contract #74-365-6 with Jee Hyun Guss, M.D., a self-employed individual, in an amount not to exceed $274,400 to provide outpatient psychiatric care services, for the period from September 1, 2015 through August 31, 2016.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This Contract is funded 100% by Mental Health Realignment. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

For a number of years the County has contracted with Medical, Dental and Mental Health Specialists to provide specialized medical services. On September 9, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74-365-5 with Jee Hyun Guss, M.D., to provide outpatient psychiatric care services for adults in Central Contra Costa County, for the period from September 1, 2014 through August 31, 2015. Approval of Contract #74-365-6 will allow the Contractor to continue to provide outpatient psychiatric care services, through August 31, 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, County clients will not have access to Contractor’s outpatient psychiatric care services, which may result in a reduction in the overall levels of service to the community.

CHILDREN'S IMPACT STATEMENT:

Not applicable.
