BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

For a number of years, the County has contracted with Medical, Dental and Mental Health Specialists to provide specialized medical services.

On April 22, 2014, the Board of Supervisors approved Contract #74–355–4 with Lisa Wang, M.D. for the provision of outpatient psychiatric care services to Seriously and Persistently Mentally Ill (SPMI) adults in West Contra Costa County for the period from July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015.

Approval of Contract #74-355-6 will allow the Contractor to continue providing outpatient psychiatric care services to adults in West Contra Costa County, through June 30, 2016.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

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