RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Health Services Director, or designee, to execute on behalf of the County, Contract #74-341-84(7) with Carolina Castillo, MFT, an individual, in an amount not to exceed $200,000, to provide Medi-Cal specialty mental health services for the period from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2020.

FISCAL IMPACT:

This contract is funded by 50% Federal Medi-Cal and 50% by State Mental Health Realignment. (No rate increase)

BACKGROUND:

On January 14, 1997, the Board of Supervisors adopted Resolution #97/17, authorizing the Health Services Director to contract with the State Department of Mental Health, (now known as the Department of Health Care Services) to assume responsibility for Medi-Cal specialty mental health services. Responsibility for outpatient specialty mental health services involves contracts with individual, group and organizational providers to deliver these services.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

In December 2016, the County Administrator approved and the Purchasing Services Manager executed Contract #74-341-84(6) with Carolina Castillo, MFT for the provision of Medi-Cal specialty mental health services, for the period from July 1, 2016 through June 30, 2018.

Approval of Contract #74-341-84(7) will allow the contractor to continue providing mental health services through June 30, 2020.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

If this contract is not approved, services provided to Contra Costa Mental Health Plan Medi-Cal beneficiaries could be negatively impacted, including access to services, choice of providers, cultural competency, language capacity, geographical locations of service providers, and waiting lists.
